18. Entire agreement

18.2 Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that in entering into these General Terms and the documents referred to in them, it does not rely on, and will have no remedy in respect of, any statement, representation, warranty or understanding (whether negligently or innocently made) of any person (whether party to these General Terms or not) other than as expressly set out in this these General Terms.

No person who is not a party to these General Terms is intended to receive a benefit under, or be entitled to enforce, this Agreement pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.
21. Waiver and remedies
No forbearance or delay by either party in enforcing its rights will prejudice or restrict the rights of that party, and no waiver of any such rights or of any breach of any contractual terms will be deemed to be a waiver of any other right or of any later breach.
22. Notices
22.1 All notices shall be made in writing and sent by prepaid first class post, by facsimile, e-mail or delivered by hand to, in the case of MTS, the address set out at the beginning of the General Terms and, in the case of the Customer, to the address notified to MTS by the Customer (or to such other address as each party may from time to time notify in writing to the other party).
22.2 Any notice served by facsimile or e-mail shall be deemed served at the time of transmission provided the sender can show satisfactory transmission and posts a hard copy of the notice within 24 hours of service provided that if any such notice would otherwise be deemed to be served outside working hours, such notice shall be deemed to be served at the start of working hours on the next business day. Any notice served by post shall be deemed served two business days after the date of posting and any notice delivered by hand, upon delivery.
23. Changes to the General Terms

The Customer is responsible for reviewing the MTS Site on a regular basis to obtain timely notice of any such changes. The General Terms and any new agreement entered into after such changes have been posted will include those changes.
