If the consumer withdraws after having first explicitly requested that the performance of the service or the supply of gas, water or electricity that are not made ready for sale in a limited volume or certain quantity commences during the cooling-off period, the consumer owes the proprietor an amount that is in proportion to that part of the commitment that the proprietor has fulfilled at the time of withdrawal, compared to the full compliance with the commitment.
  7. The consumer shall not bear any costs for the performance of services or the supply of water, gas or electricity, which are not made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity, or for the supply of district heating, if:
    1. the entrepreneur has not provided the consumer with the information on the right of withdrawal, the reimbursement of costs in the event of withdrawal or the standard withdrawal form which is required by law; or
    2. the consumer has not explicitly requested the start of the performance of the service or the supply of gas, water, electricity or district heating during the reflection period.
  8. The consumer shall not bear any costs for the full or partial supply of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, if:

  2. The entrepreneur shall reimburse all payments made by the consumer, including any delivery costs charged by the entrepreneur for the returned product, without delay but within 14 days following the day on which the consumer notifies him of the withdrawal. Unless the entrepreneur offers to pick up the product himself, he may wait to repay until he has received the product or until the consumer proves that he has returned the product, depending on which time is earlier.
  3. The entrepreneur uses the same means of payment for reimbursement as the consumer has used, unless the consumer agrees to another method. The refund shall be free of charge for the consumer.
