Handling ACH Disputes: The Retail Perspective

Overview

Financial institution Retail Centers and Call Centers are often faced with handling consumer disputes of ACH debits on their account; many situations aren’t covered in the ACH Rules book guidelines nor is there any clear direction from other resources.

This interactive, fast-paced ACH compliance training focuses on the most common disputes, and provides staff with a basic understanding of what is required to maintain compliance, plus tips on handling these issues. The course concludes with some real life “sticky situations” where attendees try their hand at solving the issue, while balancing compliance obligations with customer service.

Why Should You Attend

Mishandling consumer ACH dispute claims puts an institution at significant reputational, legal and compliance risk. Daily situations aren’t covered in the ACH Rules guidelines. Too often, institutions deny claims that should not be denied (and violate Regulation E), or the institution needlessly writes off the loss.
