The remaining balance must then be paid by bank transfer (cleared funds) on or before the balance payment date written on your contract.

2.3 A refundable security deposit (to cover charges, including but not limited to, loss, breakage, unpaid local charges, excessive cleaning and additional maintenance), as shown in the Booking contract, must also be paid to us (cleared funds) on or before the date written on your contract otherwise we may refuse you access to the property.
