The company is not obliged to bring this to your attention. If you fail to receive a payment confirmation email, you should, in the first instance, check with your card provider that payment has been processed through your account.
You understand and agree that the recurring payment will be charged automatically on the scheduled date, without further notice. It is your responsibility to ensure sufficient funds are available in the account or credit card provided.
