3. AGREEMENT
3.1 Refundmore will, to the best of its ability, ensure the greatest possible compensation. To this end, detailed, precise and accurate information is required from our customers. By setting up your case you declare that the information provided is complete and correct. Should the customer provide misleading information in violation of the aforementioned information requirements, Refundmore is entitled to and may send an invoice for the billable hours, with an hourly rate of Euro 80, VAT included.
3.2 Refundmore is acting on your behalf when contacting the airline and is entitled to take any legal action necessary to obtain the highest possible compensation.
In case the matter proceeds to court in Norway, a jurisdiction where Refundmore does not have in-house legal counsel, Refundmore has the right to share your personal information with our business partner, Wahl-Larsen Advokater, in Norway (Wahl-Larsen Advokatfirma A/S, Org. nr.: 099987654, Fridjof nansens Plass 5, 0160 Oslo, Norge). If the matter must proceed to a Central or South European court, it will be Refundmore’s business partner, Flightright (FLIGHTRIGHT GMBH, Company registration no. HRB 25958 P Rudolf-Breitscheid-Strasse 162, D-14482 Potsdam, Germany), which is responsible for the legal proceedings against the airline in a court in their geographic region. Refundmore’s clients are obligated to support the lawyers with signatures, documents and any other information needed in order for the case to be presented in court.
3.3 Refundmore represents the customer in the claim against the air carrier, and as such, you are not entitled to contact the air carrier to file a parallel claim or to receive other compensation for the same flight delay/cancellation. To ensure the best possible result in the case, after signing a power of attorney, you are required to notify Refundmore if the air carrier contacts you regarding the current case. In order to collect your claim most efficiently, Refundmore has the right to transfer your personal data to our parent company, Flightright GmbH. They will enter customer data into their internal case handling system. Data can also be transferred to Flightright’s partners – such as law firms that will handle your case in foreign courts.
3.4 If you have purchased new flight tickets you wish to get reimbursed because of the delay, you have to add the receipts for those expenses when creating the case. If Refundmore has not received the receipts before the claim is sent to the airline, Refundmore is not obliged to resend the claim for reimbursement of the extra expenses to the airline, unless they exceed 2000 DKK / 270 EUR / 2700 SEK.
3.5 You attest that your claim will not be surrendered to third parties and that no litigation is pending or expected between you and the carrier by starting a case. Once a case is initiated at Refundmore it cannot be transferred to any other individual. If you fail to comply with article 3.5, you are required to pay Refundmore's fee, equivalent to the fee Refundmore normally would be entitled to in a similar case, if the failure to comply with article 3.5 means Refundmore no longer can pursue the customer's case. Furthermore, the customer will be responsible for any costs relating to the failure to comply with the aforementioned article, among others but not exclusively, court fees and legal expenses related to a lawsuit.
3.6 Refundmore is entitled to receive information from the air carrier and the relevant authorities on your behalf.

3.19 The right of withdrawal
All consumers have the right to cancel any product or service bought online within 14 days according to EU rules. The customer, therefore, has 14 days to cancel Refundmore's services.
The right to regret a purchase's starting point is the day the customer starts his/her case on Refundmore's website: www.refundmore.com.
According to the consumer act, the customer has the right to receive information about the right of withdrawal and the ordered service. The time limit of 14 days to cancel an order doesn't commence until the customer has been made aware of his/her rights in writing. Once a case has been registered on the aforementioned website, the customer will receive this information by email at once.
If the 14 days deadline falls on a weekend or a public holiday, the customer can wait to make use of the right to withdraw from the contract until the following workday.
By signing the power of attorney, the customer accepts these terms and that Refundmore will begin working on collecting compensation and/or refund of new ticket price on behalf of the customer immediately after registration. The customer acknowledges that once Refundmore begins working on the case immediately after the case is registered on the website, the right of withdrawal will not be provided if Refundmore has already completed the service purchased before the right of withdrawal is used.
Should the customer exercise his/her right of withdrawal before Refundmore has completed the service and transferred the compensation, Refundmore naturally accepts the customer's notice of withdrawal if it is given within the 14 days time limit. However, Refundmore will be entitled to collect a fee equivalent to the work already performed by Refundmore and the hourly rate of Euro 80 including VAT
If the customer wished to exercise his/her right of withdrawal, the customer has to inform Refundmore in writing that they wish to withdraw from the contract. The notice of withdrawal should be sent to our email: hello@refundmore.com.
