5 Payment methods

5.1 Credit card – NOT AVAILABLE AT THE MOMENT

If the Customer pays by Visa or Mastercard Credit Card or enabled Maestro cashcard, at the same time as the online transaction is concluded, the relevant bank will authorise only the commitment of the amount corresponding to the purchase made. The amount corresponding to dispatched goods, including partially dispatched goods, will actually be debited to the Customer’s credit card only when the goods are dispatched from our warehouse. In the event that the order is cancelled, either by the Client or if it is not accepted by Montemenardo, then at the same time, our staff will request the transaction be cancelled and the committed amount be released. How long this release takes depends solely on the banking system and it can take up to their natural expiration date (24 days from the date of authorisation). Once the transaction has been cancelled, Montemenardo cannot under any circumstances be held responsible for any direct or indirect damage caused by a delay in the release of the committed amount on the part of the banking system. In the event that the Customer’s order is dispatched after the 23rd day from the date it was placed, Montemenardo will debit the amount owed to it to the Customer’s credit card, even if this is before the goods are delivered, in order to avoid the expiration of the transaction authorisation (24 days). Montemenardo reserves the right to request additional information from the Customer (e.g. landline number), or to request that a copy of documents proving the ownership of the Card be sent. If these documents are not sent, our staff reserve the right to not accept the order. Montemenardo cannot find out the buyer’s credit card information at any time during the purchase process. This information is transmitted via a protected connection directly to the site of the bank managing the transaction. Montemenardo does not store this information in any computer archive.
