Regulation E - Basics and Error Resolution

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

Financial institutions have responsibilities and liabilities under Regulation E for consumer accounts when there are unauthorized transactions. However, the consumer account holder has some liability too. This webinar training will explore the limits of liability and help attendees understand who is liable for what amount, aided by real-life scenarios.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

What is the error resolution process for a consumer communicating with the financial institution and the research time, plus the timing of providing provisional credit and then “what if” there is no error, what are the guidelines for providing notice to consumers and overdraft protection when the provisional credit is reversed?
What are the maximum liability amounts that the consumer is liable for when they experience the loss of a debit card?

This webinar will address several intriguing questions and use real-life scenarios to demonstrate how Regulation E is applied for an error on the consumer statement to the loss of a debit card. This is a must-attend to help you see Regulation E error resolution in a simple format and demonstration.
