TERMS OF PAYMENT Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company, the Customer shall pay in full for all Goods and/or Services supplied by the Company by not later than the last day of the month following the date of the Company s invoice statement thereof. If the Customer fails to make any payment when due, then without prejudice to any other provision of these Conditions or to any other remedy provided to the Company under these Conditions or otherwise, interest shall accrue on the amount of the overdue payment at a rate equal to 11.5% calculated from the date payment was due, and all amounts owing by the Customer to the Company on any account shall immediately become due and payable. 4.
