    Terms & Conditions

    Welcome on behalf of Utility4Business—Service Provider (“we”, “our”, or “us”). By using our services, you—Customer (“you”, “your”, or “yours”) agree to these terms and conditions.

    Liability for Loss

    In any unfortunate event of loss that is due to our intentional act or delay in executing services, you may be considered eligible for compensation as mentioned in Clause 9.4.

    Fees

    You won’t be charged unless you decide or choose not to proceed with a new supplier after reaching an agreement to a contract. In such cases, we may impose an administration fee.

    Commission

    Our revenue comes from commissions paid by suppliers. Our rates already include our commission, so you don't have to make any additional payments. We may also receive additional payments from suppliers based on the overall size and profitability of the accounts or new plans. We are committed to openly sharing information and will disclose commission amounts upon request from our customers.

    Contract Arrangement

    We will negotiate contracts based on the information you provide us. It’s your own responsibility to ensure that all the information is 100% correct, complete, and up-to-date. Any appropriate revisions or modifications must be communicated promptly to prevent delays or rejections by the supplier.

    Customer Service

    Our team of experts is here to address your questions and concerns. If you believe an incident hasn’t been dealt with successfully or satisfactorily, please contact us. We value your input and do our best to rectify any shortcomings or service failures.

    Application of Terms and Conditions

    These terms and conditions apply to all services offered by Utility4Business. They take precedence over any other terms unless explicitly mutually agreed upon in writing by us.

    Charges

    Our services are offered at no additional cost, except as specified in Clause 4.18. We are provided with monetary compensation in the form of a commission from the suppliers that is based on estimated consumption.

    Data Protection

    Your data will be used and processed in strict accordance with our privacy policy. We may conduct inquiries into your supply details to provide price estimations or lead to a contract or possibly a transfer.

    Majesty's Force

    No Waiver

    Failure to comply with any right in a timely manner does not qualify as a waiver of that right unless explicitly acknowledged in writing.

    Severability

    If any of the provisions is identified as invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it will be omitted, and the remaining terms and conditions will remain effective.

    Third-Party Rights

    These terms do not grant any legal rights to third parties to comply with any terms and conditions, except as specified.
