Payments of Services and Billing Due Dates
All payments are due payable by credit card; unless otherwise noted to a client. We may bill a fee for receipt fees for credit card payments. The fee is currently 4 percent of the billing total + $0.30. The client may provide a card for us to use to bill. If this is the case, and we must enter the payment, such as over the phone, or use a card on file, the fee will be 4.5% of the billing total +$.30 to make up for terminal fees.
All billings are due no later than 30 Days before your term expires. If payment is not received on time, termination as outlined above will be had. We try to send all bills for clients out to your last known email in most cases, at least 2 months in advance of termination date. Once you fail to either 1. pay for your term to be renewed; at the current rate or 2., notified us that you do not wish to continue the services; then you are responsible for removing us as your authorized representative with the Idaho Secretary of State, Idaho State Bar, or otherwise where we are listed as your agent.
If you have canceled the service but have not taken us off the state or bar applications by no later than the termination date; then you will be billed at the yearly rate of service prorated for the months we are listed to the nearest month. Canceling the service is okay, but if we are still listed as your agent after that time, after your term expires, you are responsible for the payments. We may also file to cancel with the agencies as well.
Without payment you cannot legally list us or have us listed on your bar applications or state forms. And then only for the company that you signed up with. You are responsible to make the changes with the State or Bar. If after the term is expired and we are still listed at the authorized agent, you will be liable for payment up until and including the month we are not on there. No Exceptions.
Failure to make service renewal payments by the due dates will automatically cancel any agreements that we have with you. Even so, you are still responsible as noted to remove us as your authorized agent and may be billed if you do not. If we must bill you for the service in such cases, we will file to dissolve our involvement with the agency and bill you for the time we were listed as noted under item 3 above.
We may enforce collections as we see fit when it comes to collecting on bills and may use any and all available resources that we have available to do so. You will be responsible for any fees relating to that collection including attorney or court fees that may be involved in collecting on a bill.
Any bills for out of pocket-services, such as forwarding your mail to you once received relating to Registered Agent Services, must be paid in advance.
In order to avoid cancellation or interruption of any services, make sure you make the payments for them on time.
