If a payment deadline is not agreed separately, the due date shall be two weeks after the invoice is issued.

7.2.    N1 strives to ensure the accuracy of all statements and information in the app. However, the company reserves the right to correct typing and printing errors. Such errors shall not give rise to any rights for users.

8.      Default

8.1.    In the event that the customer fails to pay for withdrawals on the due date, the seller shall be permitted to stop servicing the customer immediately. If the seller stops providing services, it shall not be obliged to resume service unless the customer pays the outstanding debt or provides a guarantee for payment that the seller deems satisfactory. The customer shall pay the highest permitted default interest from the due date to the date of payment in case of non-payment.

8.2.    The seller shall be permitted to terminate all business with the customer in the event of significant default.  Failure to remedy non-payment shall always be regarded as significant default.

10.  Assignment

10.1. N1 shall be permitted to entrust another company owned by it or within the same group of companies as N1 with the performance of a contract with a customer, provided that it can fulfil the obligations undertaken by the seller under the contract in the same way.

12.1  The seller will strive to ensure that any complaints of the buyer and potential disputes between the parties are resolved by mutual agreement and in the simplest and most cost-effective way for both parties.

12.2  If a dispute cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, the parties may, depending on the circumstances, refer it to the Complaints Committee for the Purchase of Goods and Services for a ruling on the rights and obligations of the parties.

12.3  These Terms are subject to Icelandic law. In the event of a dispute between the parties that cannot be settled amicably, such dispute may be referred to the District Court of Reykjavik.

Special provisions on charging stations

Customers agree to these Terms that apply their access to the app which enables them to transact with charging station owners for the purpose of purchasing power for vehicles. The app only makes it possible to transact with charging stations that have concluded agreements with N1 for services pertaining to the sale/delivery of power. Please note that separate terms apply to the electricity purchase itself and the use of the charging stations.

N1 has reached agreements with certain operators/owners of charging stations, hereinafter station owners, regarding their services for the sale/delivery of power to users/owners of electric vehicles. The app contains a list of the charging stations covered by N1's service agreements.

The following special terms apply to electricity transactions. The general part of the Terms of Use for the N1 app only applies to cash transaction customers.

These terms only apply to those customers who enter into a contract for access to N1 charging stations. Registered members are those who enter into an agreement for access to payment methods provided by N1 together with login access to the app. Electricity is paid according to the N1 tariff as current at any time. When the station owner requires payment for the charging or service offered at a charging station, the user must pay for it.

II. Terms of cash transactions

1.      Scope of section II

This part of the terms applies only to those users who choose to charge without a contract and without becoming a member of the N1 customer network.

2.       Fees

N1's service to customers is free of charge as long as station owners do not require payment for the charging or services offered at a charging station. Electricity is paid according to the N1 tariff as current at any time. When the station owner requires payment for the charging or service offered at a charging station, the user must pay for it. In order to make a cash transaction payment, customers must provide a card number and/or provide other necessary information so that payment can be made at that time. When paying by means of a cash transaction, a longer-duration contract is not concluded with the electricity service provider.

3.      General Terms and Conditions

N1's General Terms and Conditions apply to cash transactions with respect to data protection and liability for damage, unless circumstances require otherwise.
