13.3.8. In those cases in which an ELECTRONIC TELECOMMUNICATIONS PRODUCT contracted by the CUSTOMER provides both TELEPHONE and INTERNET ACCESS SERVICES, the following rules shall be used to calculate the compensation amounts set out in Clauses 13.3.1., 13.3.2. and 13.3.5:

13.3.8.a. If, based on the ANNEX entitled “CHARACTERISTICS OF EACH OF THE DIFFERENT ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS AND SERVICES MARKETED, FURNISHED, PROVIDED, OFFERED, SUPPLIED AND/OR MADE AVAILABLE BY AVS”, the invoices issued by AVS or in any other way, it can be inferred that part of the invoiced amount or price corresponds to each of the SERVICES, then that amount shall be used to calculate the compensation the CUSTOMER is entitled to receive pursuant to Clauses 13.3.1., 13.3.2. and 13.3.5.

13.3.8.b. Alternatively, if, in the event of applying the rule foreseen in Clause 13.3.8.a., it is not possible to calculate the amount of the compensation to which the CUSTOMER is entitled, it shall be held that the price of each SERVICE is proportional to that of its individual contract.

13.3.8.c. Alternatively, if, in the event of applying the rules foreseen in Clauses 13.3.8.a. and 13.1.8.b, it is not possible to calculate the amount of the compensation to which the CUSTOMER is entitled, it shall be held that the price of the INTERNET ACCESS SERVICE is fifty per cent (50 %) of the total price.

13.4. For the purposes of exercising the rights set out in this Clause 13, in relation to Clause 4.1.9. the CUSTOMER may send all communications, notifications complaints and/or claims against AVS by any of the channels set out in Clause 17 in in the terms expressed in said Clause.

15.3. The CUSTOMER formally and spontaneously declares that they relieve AVS of all liability arising from the fraudulent, illicit, illegal and in general, illegitimate use of the ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES furnished, provided, supplied, offered and/or made available by AVS.

15.4. The fraudulent, illicit, illegal and in general, illegitimate use of the ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES furnished, provided, supplied, offered and/or made available by AVS to the CUSTOMER shall not give the latter the right to elude and/or breach their obligation to pay the invoices issued by AVS, pursuant to the provisions of Clauses 3.1.5. and 3.1.6.
