8.2. Currency conversion

The provided service by BBCIncorp is offered product-level pricing in various currencies; however, transaction processing is supported only in HKD (Hongkong dollars) and a select number of the currency options displayed on this Site (“Supported Currency” or “Supported Currencies”). If the currency selected is a Supported Currency, then the transaction will be processed in the Supported Currency and the pricing displayed during the checkout process will be the actual amount processed and submitted to your bank for payment. If the currency selected is not a Supported Currency, then the transaction will be processed in U.S. dollars and the pricing displayed during the checkout process will be an estimated conversion price at the time of purchase. In either case (whether the currency selected is a Supported Currency or not), if the transaction is processed in a currency that differs from the currency of your bank account, you may be charged exchange rate conversion fees by your bank. In addition, due to time differences between (i) the time you complete the checkout process, (ii) the time the transaction is processed, and (iii) the time the transaction posts to your bank statement, the conversion rates may fluctuate, and BBCIncorp makes no representations or warranties that (a) the amount submitted to your bank for payment will be the same as the amount posted to your bank statement (in the case of a Supported Currency) or (b) the estimated conversion price will be the same as either the amount processed or the amount posted to your bank statement (in the case of a non-Supported Currency), and you agree to waive any and all claims based upon such discrepancies (including any and all claims for a refund based on the foregoing). In addition, regardless of the selected currency, you acknowledge and agree that you may be charged Value Added Tax (“VAT”), Goods and Services Tax (“GST”), or other localized fees and/or taxes, based on your bank and/or the country indicated in your billing address section.
For ease of use and comparison, we also offer all prices listed in 6 different currencies including: AUD, EUR, GBP, HKD, SGD and USD. The amount is exchanged for HKD and will be rounded to the tens. Rates are derived from the mid-market rate, which is the mid-point between the “buy” and “sell” rates from global currency markets. Reference used for mid-market rate is at: https://finance.yahoo.com/currency-converter
The table below shows the current conversion rate in use:
The actual amount charged in your favored/local currency might differ slightly from the amount listed on our website as the currency conversion rate by the time payment is made is determined by your bank and/or your card issuer.
Your Credit card statement might show the amount in HKD (Hong Kong Dollar).
This term only applies to the Debit/Credit Card payment method.

9. TIME OF CONDUCTING SERVICES

Any time frame listed on this website for delivering service is calculated based on past activities during normal course of our business and presented only for illustration purposes. It shall not be understood as binding under any circumstances.

Depending on specific services, the time required for conducting service is calculated from the time when all of the following conditions are satisfied:

  • Full payment for services has been settled
  • Receive All documents required for delivering services in a complete and eligible manner.
  • For the incorporation service, the name check result has been released and approved for use to set up a new company.
In case you cannot provide adequately all documents required by BBCIncorp which causes up to a 3-month suspension, both parties agree and acknowledge that all services are fully completed and you do not have any rights to open a dispute as well as request a refund of paid fees.

You understand that the actual time required to deliver services might be extended or differ slightly from the time listed on our website as unexpected events occur including but not limited to:

  • Natural disasters e.g fire, flood, earthquake or any force majeure cases.
  • Client, agent or government system breakdown results in loss of communication or negatively affects the ability of any parties for conducting service.
  • The proposed company name needs to be explained in detail or replaced with a new one if it’s not available.
Under no circumstances, BBCIncorp should be responsible or liable for not conducting service in the time frame listed on our website.

10. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL SERVICES

In order to ensure that you do not experience an interruption or loss of services, most services offer an automatic renewal option. The automatic renewal option automatically renews the applicable service for a renewal period equal in time to the most recent service period. While the details of the automatic renewal option vary from service to service, the services that offer an automatic renewal option treat it as the default setting. Therefore, unless you disable the automatic renewal option, BBCIncorp will automatically renew the applicable service when it comes up for renewal and will take payment from the payment method you have on file with BBCIncorp at BBCIncorp’s then-current rates, which you acknowledge and agree may be higher or lower than the rates for the original service period. You may enable or disable the automatic renewal option at any time. However, should you elect to disable the automatic renewal option and fail to manually renew your services before they expire, you may experience an interruption or loss of services, and BBCIncorp shall not be liable to you or any third party regarding the same.

In addition, BBCIncorp may participate in “recurring billing programs” or “account updater services” supported by your credit card provider (and ultimately dependent on your bank’s participation). If you are enrolled in an automatic renewal option and we are unable to successfully charge your existing payment method, your credit card provider (or your bank) may notify us of updates to your credit card number and/or expiration date, or they may automatically charge your new credit card on our behalf without notification to us. In accordance with recurring billing program requirements, in the event that we are notified of an update to your credit card number and/or expiration date, BBCIncorp will automatically update your payment profile on your behalf. BBCIncorp makes no guarantees that we will request or receive updated credit card information. You acknowledge and agree that it is your sole responsibility to modify and maintain your account settings, including but not limited to (i) setting your renewal options and (ii) ensuring your associated payment method(s) are current and valid. Further, you acknowledge and agree that your failure to do so, may result in the interruption or loss of services, and BBCIncorp shall not be liable to you or any third party regarding the same.

11. COMMUNICATION AND INSTRUCTIONS

The Client and BBCIncorp may send to each other instructions, notices, documents or any other communication either by mail, email or by fax, PROVIDED ALWAYS, that BBCIncorp may send fee notes by email message attachment.

Each communication shall be addressed, if to BBCIncorp, at its registered office or at such other address as BBCIncorp may, by notice in writing, notify to the Client from time to time and, if to the Client, at his/her address or at such other address as the Client may, by notice in writing, notify to BBCIncorp from time to time, including holding mail instructions that shall be agreed upon in writing.
