6.1 We may from time to time change Our prices. Changes in price will not affect the current billing period of any Subscription that you have already purchased but will apply to any subsequent renewal or new Subscription.

7.4 In the unlikely event that We do not accept or cannot fulfil your order for any reason, We will explain why in writing. No payment will be taken under normal circumstances. If We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you.

If the suspension lasts (or We tell you that it is going to last) for more than 30 days, you may end the Contract as described below in sub-Clause 11.2.
9.4 We may suspend provision of the Services if We do not receive payment on time from you. We will inform you of the non-payment on the due date, however if you do not make payment within 10 days of Our notice, We may suspend provision of the Services until We have received all outstanding sums due from you. If We do suspend provision of the Services, We will inform you of the suspension. You will not be charged for any Services while provision is suspended.
