The Electronic Fund Transfer Act and Regulation E provide many protections for consumers, which impose many responsibilities and liabilities on financial institutions. Anyone who has attempted to read the regulatory language will agree that Reg E is complicated and, given the rapid changes in the types of electronic transfers, many are confused about when Reg E applies. It is further complicated because there is a legal distinction between a Reg E claim and a merchant dispute under the Visa/MC rules. This webinar will explain how to determine if Reg E applies and how to properly handle ATM and debit card claims under Reg E, including the investigation process, when provisional credit is mandated, determining the proper amount to reimburse the consumer, notices to the consumer, and the specific deadlines.
