Need to change your Credit Card Information?
To Change your Credit Card information, click on the tab called "Client Info" > "Client Profile", scroll down to the billing area, enter your new information and submit.
Be sure to check your billing information, address, etc...to be sure everything is correct. Be aware, once a new credit card is submitted, it will need to be approved by the billing department before payments can be processed. This approval takes up to 24 hours. This is normal and there is no further action required on your part, unless the credit card number is not valid. If there is a problem with a credit card number, the billing department will notify you via email.
Need to Pay an invoice? First, be sure to update your credit card information, as listed above, THEN, submit a Billing Support ticket requesting us to charge your card. Click on "Support"->"Submit a ticket", etc...
Need to Cancel your hosting services? Go to the "Support" tab, and "submit" a billing support ticket requesting your hosting services be canceled.

Need to add a contact person allowing access to your billing?

Will my Credit Card or PayPal account be charged automatically? If you signed up via Credit Card or PayPal subscription, your payment will be processed automatically based on the term you signed up for, i.e. monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. Credit cards as well as PayPal subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis automatically, unless you cancel your services. Please be aware, we require a 30 day cancelation notice. Also, if canceling you MUST request a cancelation via the Billing Support Ticket system. This way everything is logged. To cancel your hosting services, submit a billing support ticket with your request. See tab "Support" You can also read our Hosting Terms here: http://www.bummerhosting.com/terms.php
What if my credit card or paypal account is declined? If payment on your recurring billing is declined, you will be sent a notice via email. Be sure your email address on file is kept up to date. If late payments or declined payments are not settled in a timely manner, all hosting services will be suspended automatically until payment is made and processed. Please be aware, if your services are suspended due to non-payment, late payment or declined billing, during a time when our offices are closed (i.e. weekends, after hours or holidays), you will need to wait until our office re-opens to settle your account and/or have your hosting services re-instated. To avoid interruption in service and/or late fees, please pay your invoices in a timely manner, keep your billing information up to date and keep us informed by submitting a support ticket when the need arises.
