    2. As compensation for the provision of the Services, you agree to pay the Fees in accordance with these Terms and the pricing and payment terms presented to you for the Services, unless otherwise agreed in writing by The Company. Where you start to use any Additional Services, revised Fees may immediately apply and you agree to pay those Fees in accordance with these Terms. If the pricing and payment terms presented to you for any Additional Services are specified as involving a ‘one-off’ payment, you agree to pay that ‘one-off’ payment as part of the Fees in your next billing cycle. We reserve the right to require from you payment in advance of Fees for Additional Services.
    3. The Fees and the charges for any Hardware and Materials are exclusive of amounts in respect of VAT (if applicable).
