All rates, unless otherwise stated, are calculated on a per minute participant basis. In the event of a conflict between any terms herein and in any Schedule, the terms of the Schedule for the particular service shall control. Charges for use of Services are invoiced at the end of each billing cycle, and payments are due upon receipt of invoice. Past-due balances shall be subject to an interest charge of 1.5% per month computed from the due date of each invoice previously issued, or the maximum rate legally permitted, whichever is less. Customer shall pay any collection costs, including reasonable attorneys\' fees, and other expenses incurred by BudgetConferencing.com to collect any sums due under this Agreement. Customer must notify BudgetConferencing.com of any charge disputed in good faith, with supporting documentation, within 30 days from the date of invoice, or Customer will be deemed to agree to such charges and no adjustments to charges or invoices will be made. Customer remains responsible to pay undisputed charges by the due date. Customer acknowledges and agrees that BudgetConferencing.com reserves the right to change the applicable pricing or modify or discontinue any or all of the Services and any related Dial-In numbers or other methods of access at any time for any reason.
