If you pay by credit card, you hereby authorize Tukee Pools to charge your credit card account for Services rendered. Any authorized work outside of your recurring Services will be charged to your credit card account upon completion.

If for any reason Tukee Pools is unable to charge your payment method for the full amount owed for the Services provided, or if Tukee Pools receives notification of a chargeback, reversal, payment dispute or is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to your account or other payment method, you agree that we may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment.
