Before You Click "Transfer"... ⏳
Take just 10 seconds to:
✔ Confirm the account name.
✔ Verify the bank.
✔ Double-check the account number.
✔ Make sure you're sending the money to the intended recipient.
A few extra seconds can save you the stress, time, and effort involved in recovering funds from an erroneous transfer.
If You Transfer Funds to the Wrong Account:
- Report the transaction to your bank immediately.
- Notify the beneficiary bank as soon as possible.
- Where required, obtain a court order and present it to the beneficiary bank. This may enable the bank to place a restriction on the funds while the matter is being reviewed and resolved.
Before You Click Send...
Pause. Review. Transfer with Confidence.
Bank Safely.
