We will normally check prices before accepting your booking so that, where the Services correct price at your booking date is less than our stated price at your booking date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your booking date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your booking.  Should you wish to proceed with the booking for the Services you will be asked to pay the higher amount.
