The Payor’s Authorization applies only to the method of payment and does not otherwise have any bearing on the contract for goods or services exchanged.
A PAD may be disputed by a Payor under the following conditions:

(2) the authorization was revoked; or
(3) pre-notification was not received.The Payor, in order to be reimbursed, acknowledges that a declaration to the effect that either (1), (2) or (3) took place, must be completed and presented to the branch of the Processing Institution holding the Payor’s account up to and including 90 calendar days in the case of a personal/ household PAD (or up to and including 10 business days in the case of a business PAD), after the date on which the PAD in dispute was posted to the Payor’s account.
The Payor acknowledges that a claim on the basis that the Payor’s Authorization was revoked, or any other reason, is a matter to be resolved solely between the Payee and the Payor when disputing any PAD after (90 calendar days in the case of a personal/ household PAD or 10 business days in the case of a business PAD).
