3.1 Cardholders agree that Plus!

The Cardholder agrees to direct all claims in relation to such goods and/or services to the Merchant, manufacturer or such appropriate third party concerned with the supply of the goods and/or services.

any acts, omissions, negligence or wilful default on the part of NTUC Link, its directors, officers, employees, agents or contractors;
the inability of NTUC Link to perform any of its obligations due, whether directly or indirectly, to the failure of any computer, machine, processing or communication systems, power failure, industrial dispute, war, Act of God, governmental regulations, prohibitions or measures of any kind, or any event beyond NTUC Link’s control; or
