1. Drawing arrangements - ING's commitment to you
The details of your drawing arrangement are shown in your DDR Schedule. These arrangements may include the right to draw funds from the external source specified in that DDR Schedule for deposit into your ING account. We will give you written notice of any changes to your drawing arrangements at least 14 days before those changes occur.
If a drawing date falls on a day which is not a business day, the drawing will be made on the next business day. All rights are reserved to cancel your drawing arrangements if two or more drawings are returned unpaid by the financial institution with which your external source is held and to arrange an alternative payment method with you.
We will keep your direct debit records and account details confidential, except where the disclosure of certain information to your financial institution is necessary to enable us to act in accordance with your drawing arrangements.
2. Your rights
You can cancel, alter or suspend your drawing arrangements at any time by logging onto your account(s) or phoning us at least two business days before the cancellation, alteration or suspension is to take effect. You can also stop or defer an individual drawing by calling us at least two business days before the date that drawing is to be made. If you consider that a drawing has been initiated incorrectly, you should call and seek advice from one of our Direct Associates for immediate attention. All contact should be made by phoning 133 464.
If you have authorised your attorney to do so, your attorney can exercise your rights under this Section 2 on your behalf.
We will investigate your concerns and endeavour to respond to you within 21 days. If we conclude that a debit has been made in error, we will arrange for your financial institution to adjust your external source and advise you accordingly. If we conclude that a debit has not been made in error, you will be informed of this conclusion and the reasons for it.
3. Your responsibilities
It is your responsibility to:
ensure that your external source can accept direct debits (direct debiting may not be available on all accounts. Please check with your financial institution before completing the DDR if you are uncertain);
check the account details for your external source against a recent statement from the financial institution where it is held (please check with your financial institution if you are uncertain);
ensure that there are sufficient clear funds in your external source by the due date to enable drawings to be made in accordance with your drawing arrangements. If there are insufficient funds in your external source to enable a drawing to be made, any amount debited to your external source in anticipation of that drawing being made will be reversed. With ING there are no fees to pay except standard statutory Government charges;
ensure that the authority given to us to draw on your external source is consistent with the account authority or signing instructions held by your financial institution for that account;
advise us if your external source is transferred, closed or any other account details change;
arrange a suitable payment method if your drawing arrangements are cancelled;
ensure that your attorney does the above if you do not.
