Payment Policy

All services provided by Racked Hosting LLC are pre-paid in advance for either one month or quarterly periods. Full payment is required before we will create an account or add additional services to any account. You will be billed automatically on the day of sign-up and every 30 days or every one year thereafter (this is your "billing date") until a cancellation request is received. If during any month there are any account overages (e.g. bandwidth, disk space, etc.), you will receive a separate invoice by e-mail for these charges which must be paid within 7 days of receipt.

Please note that if payment for your services in full is not received by your billing date, or payment for overages is not received within 5 days of the invoice date, you will be notified by e-mail and we will attempt to re-bill for up to 3 days before your account is suspended. You must then contact [email protected] to work out payment options. After 14 days the account will be terminated and all content deleted if not paid in full. All accounts suspended for failure to pay are subject to a $15 re-activation fee.

Cancellations

We do not require any type of contract so you may cancel service at any time. To cancel an account, you must e-mail [email protected] requesting the account cancellation at least five days seven, in case of dedicated servers) before your next billing date. You will be notified via e-mail as soon as the cancellation request is completed or if any further information or action is needed on your part. Refunds will only be given for yearly payment. The only exception for refund is server downtimes which entitles you to get a refund. As for yearly refund, we shall follow the following procedure:

	Refund = Yearly fee - (Monthly Fee X no. of months of service).
	
Example
	You paid $200 for an yearly plan which costs $20 monthly. If you want a refund after 6 months:
	Refund = $200 - ($20 X 6 ) = $200 - $120 = $80.
	In this example plan, no refund will be given after 10 months of service because:
	Refund = $200 - ($20 X 10 ) = $200 - $200 = $0.
