If the operation is viable and the applicant does not carry it out within thirty days, UCG expenses will be considered without the right to refund. If the applicant performs the operation within a month of signing the application, in accordance with the rules and drafts provided by the bank, as well as after having satisfied the price established by the bank, the indicated amount will be deducted from the total agreed price.

8.- Next, the client / applicant will receive a draft of the SWIFT with all the data that was provided to us, as well as the legal texts, so that, if he/she is satisfied with all the content, he/she can return it signed and sealed to UCG as a sign of conformity, by email. If there is any difference or error, another draft is reissued, modifying the draft of the previous SWIFT and it is sent back to the applicant together with the data to make the transfer for the payment of the guarantee.

IMPORTANT

a) Once the SWIFT has been paid, there is no possibility of refunding the amount paid since the bank cannot reverse a guarantee sent to another bank.
