The possibility of use of the Car Park by the Customer expires.
5.4. Customer can cancel a Subscription anytime through their user account. A Subscription will in any event stay active until the end of the then relevant billing cycle.

6.5. If payment for any invoice is not received by ParkBee within the stipulated 30 calendar days payment terms, a late payment service fee fee will be applied. The late payment service fee will amount to an additional 5% of the total order value (excluding VAT) specified in the original invoice. For the sake of clarification, if an original order amount is GBP 1000, a late payment fee of 5% (e.g., GBP 50) will be added to the outstanding amount.
6.6. In the event that the original invoice amount, plus any previously accrued late payment fees, remains unpaid after 30 calendar days from the initial due date (i.e., Day 31 and onwards), an additional late payment service fee of 5% of the total order value will be applied for each subsequent 30-day period of non-payment. For example, on Day 61, another late payment service fee of 5% (e.g., GBP 50) will be added to the outstanding amount.
6.7. ParkBee will calculate late payment service fees based on the outstanding balance of the invoice. These fees will continue to accrue for each 30-calendar day period until the full outstanding amount is settled.
6.8. ParkBee will notify the Customer of any late payment service fees applied to their outstanding balance. These notifications will be sent to the email address provided by the Customer in their account information.
