Our Liability for Failure to Complete an Electronic Fund Transfer Transaction

• Funds deposited to your account have not been made available by a bank, credit card or other financial institution;
• The funds in your account are subject to legal process;
• Your card has been reported lost or stolen and you are using the reported card;

In any case, we shall only be liable for actual proven damages if the failure to make the transactions resulted from a bona fide error despite our procedures to avoid such errors.
