1. Clients agree to current rates as well as all Terms &
Conditions listed below.
2. All invoices, unless other arrangements are made in advance, are due upon receipt. Established customers may go on NET 15 or NET 30 terms. NET terms longer that NET 30 are not available.
3. A deposit may be required on certain products purchased from Deering IT. Deering IT follows the return policies of each vendor. Generally, non-defective products may be returned within 30 days of purchase only if all original packaging, documentation, and support materials are returned and the product is in new condition. Please contact us if you need to determine the specific return policies for a particular vendor. A 20% restocking fee will be charged on all non-defective returns. Special order items are not returnable unless defective and then only for credit or replacement of the defective item(s). No returns will be accepted after 30 days.
4. Any invoice past due will be charged 1.0% interest per month (12% APR) from the invoice date, unless other arrangements have been made to pay the balance. Interest rates are subject to change. Any change in interest rates will be posted here at least 7 days prior to implementation.
5. Any check returned for any reason will be assessed the maximum fee allowed under then current New Hampshire law along with applicable interest if the amount is past due. If more than one (1) check is returned as NSF in any 12 month period, an account will immediately be placed on a strictly COD basis. Should it become necessary to take legal action to collect amounts owed by an NSF check, the check will be turned over to the Hillsborough County New Hampshire District Attorney’s Office for criminal prosecution under applicable State and Federal check fraud statutes.
6. Accounts past due 30 days will be placed on hold until the entire balance is paid unless other arrangements have been made to pay the balance.
7. Legal action will be taken against accounts past due 45 days or more unless other arrangements have been made to pay the balance.
8. If your account becomes past due and we are forced to place it on hold or take legal action to collect a past due balance, NO service, support, or sales will be available until the account is paid in full. Once a suspended account is paid in full, for a 6 month period following the full payment of the suspended account, all service, support, or purchases will be strictly on a COD basis only. Should it become necessary to suspend an account for a 2nd time, all necessary measures required to collect the entire balance will be taken and the account will not be reactivated. This means that after the 2nd suspension, we will no longer do business with that customer. There will be no exceptions here.
9. Any costs, including, but not limited to court fees, attorney's fees, and/or collection fees, incurred by Deering IT to collect a past due amount will also be charged to the account as allowed by New Hampshire law.
