2.10 Refusal to execute a payment order

2.10.1 WealthBizzTradeFX Payments shall in particular be entitled to refuse to execute the payment order if 

• a client identification provided by you to WealthBizzTradeFX Payments cannot be assigned to any WealthBizzTradeFX Payments' Payee or any other payee, any payment service provider of the payee, or any payment account or Wallet;

2.10.3 If WealthBizzTradeFX Payments refuses to execute a payment order, WealthBizzTradeFX Payments will inform you as soon as possible, but in any event within the time limits specified in point 2.11, of the refusal and how the payment order can be corrected to enable future execution.

Thereby, amounts shall be rounded commercially (kaufmännisch gerundet) to whole cents. This adjustment shall be made once a year with effect from 1 July of each year. The adjustment shall be equal to the change in the average of the index figures for the penultimate calendar year before the change offer compared with the average of the index figures for the last calendar year before the change offer. If WealthBizzTradeFX Payments refrains from a fee increase in any year, this shall not affect WealthBizzTradeFX Payments' right to future increases of Charges. If there is no increase of Charges in one or more consecutive years, such increase can be made up with effect from the next increase of Charges, in which case the adjustment shall be made to the extent corresponding to the change in the CPI index figure published for the average of the year before the fee increase to the CPI index figure which was the basis for the last fee increase carried out.
