Terms and Conditions of Sale

 

DEFINITIONS

In these terms and conditions of sale the words "B & F" means B & F PAPERS LTD and the organisation, or individual to whom the goods are being supplied.

ACCEPTANCE

Use of this account shall constitute acceptance of these terms and conditions.

PAYMENT

Account shall be payable no later than the 20th of the month following date of invoice. The Company reserves the right to charge interest on all overdue accounts at a rate of 5% above the Bank of New Zealand Limited base rate on the day payment is due. Interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the day on which payment was due up to and including the day of actual payment, whether after judgement or not. The customer shall be liable for all costs of collection and legal fees incurred by the Company in recovering amounts payable here under. No payment shall be withheld for any disputed portion of an account unless full details of the disputed portion are sent to the Company and deductions should be fully documented in support of the payment made.
If B & F fails, or appears to fail to enforce any of B & F 's rights under this Agreement, B & F has not waived or minimised those rights, and retains the right to enforce the terms and conditions of sale at any point in time of B & F/s choosing.
Acceptance of these terms and conditions acknowledges that you the PURCHASER agrees that there could be costs incurred if you do not pay their account on or by the due date.
B & F uses the service of B & D Holdings Limited (debt collectors) for the enforcement of its rights (debt collection) under this agreement; however, B & F reserves the right to change the name of recovery agent at any time.
If your account is not paid in a timely fashion and we consider that we need to enforce our rights (recover your loss) per your contract, we will write to our collection agents and obtain the assignment of debt figure (their costs and commission) they deem necessary to pursue this matter further. Their figures (our agent’s costs and commission) will be communicated to you in our final demand to you.
In the first instance B & F will seek to enter into an agreement with you by way of an acknowledgment of our claim in an effort to settle your outstanding debt before it becomes necessary to enforce our rights by way of a third party agency (debt collection).
B & F reserves the right to add its late payment fees to any overdue account.
