We cannot be held responsible for any losses incurred due to the Client's negligence in this matter.
  3. We ask that the Client number is stated every time the Client tries to contact Fintecom. During a telephone call, in order to verify the caller, we may ask the Client to answer additional questions or to provide us with their telephone access password, which would have been set up during the registration process.

Any newsletters sent out via e-mail will also give the Client the ability to opt out from receiving any future newsletters.
  6. The Client may contact us at any time by sending a message to our Customer Services department. Current contact details are published at https://www.england.pl/en/company/help-and-contact.
