vi. Company makes no representation that any or all Mobil Card Products that Accountholder or Cardholder seeks to purchase will be available for purchase at a particular Merchant Site at any time.

vii. We accept no responsibility in respect of payments sent to us by post (including where post or contents are not received by us or are received by us late) or payments made to other persons for transmission to us.
