6. If the Consumer withdraws after having first explicitly requested that the         performance of a service or the supply of gas, water or electricity having not     been made ready for sale not be started in a limited volume or given quantity        during the period of reflection, the Consumer shall pay the Entrepreneur an          amount that is equal to the part of the obligation already performed at    the   time of withdrawal as compared with the full compliance of the       obligation.
7. The Consumer does not bear the costs for performing services for the supply of water, gas or electricity that had not been made ready for sale in a limited         volume or quantity, or for the supply of district heating if
8. the Entrepreneur has not provided the Consumer with the statutorily                 required information about the right of withdrawal, the compensation of                  costs in case of withdrawal or the standard form for withdrawal, or

2. he did not acknowledge to lose his right of withdrawal when giving          consent; or
3. the Entrepreneur failed to confirm the Consumer’s statement.

2. The Entrepreneur shall reimburse all payments made by the Consumer,          including any delivery costs that the Consumer may charge for the returned      product, as soon as possible but within 14 days following the day on which     the Consumer notified him of the withdrawal. Unless the Entrepreneur offers       to collect the product himself, he can wait with paying back until having       received the product or until the Consumer proved that he returned the product, whichever occurs first.
3. The Entrepreneur shall make use of the same means of payment that the      Consumer used, unless the Consumer consents to another method. The   reimbursement is free of charge for the Consumer.
