In respect of Services, if the Supplier accepts within the Warranty Period that it has failed to execute the Services in accordance with the express terms of the Contract, the Supplier may, at its option, perform again such of the Services as have not been carried out in accordance with the express terms of the Contract or repay the Customer the charge for such of the Services as have not been so performed (provided such charge shall have been paid to the Supplier by the Customer).

10. Limit of Responsibility

The Customer's remedies in respect of any claim under the foregoing express warranty or any condition or warranty implied by law or any other claim in respect of the Goods or Services or any workmanship in relation to them (whether or not involving negligence on the part of the Supplier) shall, in all cases, be limited to replacement, re-performance or refund of the purchase price as aforesaid and any condition or warranty implied by law shall cease to apply after the expiry of the Warranty Period; and the Supplier shall not in any circumstances be liable for any damages, compensation, costs, expenses, losses or other liabilities, whether direct or consequential, and any other remedy which would otherwise be available in law is hereby excluded except to the extent that such exclusion is prohibited by any rule of law.

In the event that the customer does not receive the goods within 30 days of placing an order, the customer is entitled to cancel their order and request a full refund, if any monies have been paid.
