1. Establishing a Payment Agreement

1.1  By requesting us to establish a payment agreement, you have consented to us to using, disclosing and recording your details, including the account or PayID details you have provided to us, and the details of the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service operated by NPP Australia Limited as a payment agreement creation request.

 

1.2  Not all financial institutions offer PayID services. If your financial institution does not offer PayID services, we will let you know and offer you an alternative payment option.

1.3  If your financial institution supports PayID, your financial

institution will retrieve the payment agreement creation request and deliver it to you, for you to view and to authorise at your discretion.

1.4  Your authorisation of the payment agreement creation request is required to be given to your financial institution in order for the payment agreement to be established. If your account is a joint account, your financial institution may need all joint account holders to authorise the payment agreement.

 

1.5  The method by which your financial institution communicates and

delivers the payment agreement creation request to you is up to your financial institution.

2. Viewing the Payment Agreement

2.1  Your financial institution will provide you with a facility to view the payment agreements you have authorised.

2.2  You may also contact us to confirm details of your payment agreement with us at [email protected].

3. Payments under the Payment Agreement

3.1  As soon as a payment agreement is established, we may arrange for payment to be made from your account.

3.2  We will only arrange for payments to be made from your account in accordance with the payment agreement.

3.3  Before we arrange for any payment to be made, we or our financial institution will check the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service to ensure it remains valid and active (that is, that it has not

been suspended or cancelled, or otherwise amended, by you).

3.4  If the payment agreement requires us to send you a billing advice before we arrange for payment to be made from your account, we will only arrange for the payment to be made from your account if we have sent a billing advice which specifies the amount payable by you to us and when it is due to the email or physical address provided

by you to us when requesting us to establish the payment agreement.

 

 

 

The PayID service is a 24/7 service, which means the payment day may fall on a day which is not a banking day. If that is the case, we may arrange for payment to be made on that day. However, we may also choose to direct your financial institution to make the payment from your account on the first banking day after the payment day. If you are unsure about which day payments under the payment agreement will be made from your account, you should check with your financial institution.

4. Amendments by us

4.1  We may vary any details of this Service Agreement and any of our details included in the payment agreement at any time by giving you at least fourteen (14) days written notice.

 

4.2  If we wish to vary any payment terms of the payment agreement, where required we will submit these as requested amendments to the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service. Your financial institution will notify you of the amendment and seek your authorisation (where required). This will be recorded in the Mandate Management Service for the amendment to take effect.

 

4.3  We may suspend or cancel the payment agreement at any time. If we do so, we will not be able to arrange for payments to be made from your account.

4.4  The status of our payment agreement with you will be as represented

by the record of the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service.

5. Amendments by you

5.1 You may change your account number or PayID in our payment agreement or suspend or cancel our payment agreement via your financial institution, which is required to act promptly on your instructions by modifying the record of the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service.

6. Your obligations

6.1  It is your responsibility to ensure that there are sufficient clear funds available in your account to allow a payment to be made in accordance with the payment agreement.

6.2  If there are insufficient clear funds in your account to meet a payment:

 

a.    we may re-try up to three times on the payment day to have the payment made, and on each successive day until

the payment is made;

b.    you may be charged a fee and/or interest by your financial institution;

c.     you may also incur fees or charges imposed or incurred by us; and

d.    failing payment under a re-try being successful, you must arrange for the payment to be made by another method or arrange for sufficient clear funds to be in your account by an agreed time so that we can process the payment.

You should check your account statement to verify that the amounts debited from your account are correct.

7. Dispute

7.1  The record of the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service is evidence of the value and frequency of payments that you have authorised us to have made from your account. If you believe that there has been an error relating to payments from your account, you may notify us directly on 1300 280 508 so that we can resolve your claim quickly.

 

7.2  If we conclude as a result of our investigations that a payment has been made incorrectly from your account, we will respond to your query

by arranging for your financial institution to adjust your account (including

 

interest and charges) accordingly. We will also notify you in writing of the amount by which your account has been adjusted.

7.3  If we conclude as a result of our investigations that a payment has not been made incorrectly from your account, we will respond to your query by providing you with reasons and any evidence for this finding in writing.

7.4  As an alternative to contacting us in the first instance, you may contact your financial institution. Your financial institution will be able to review the payment agreement in the Mandate Management Service and the payment/s you believe have been made in error, and if appropriate

recover the payment/s (plus interest and charges) from us.

8. Accounts

8.1  You should check:

a.    with your financial institution whether PayID is available from your account;

b.    that your account details are in the correct format or

the PayID which you have provided to us are correct; and with your financial institution if you have any queries about PayID service.

9. Confidentiality

9.1  We will keep any information (including your account details or PayID details) in your payment agreement creation request confidential. We will make reasonable efforts to keep any such information that we have about you secure and to ensure that any of our employees or agents who have access to information about you do not make any unauthorised use, modification, reproduction or disclosure of that information.

9.2  We will only disclose information that we have about you:

a.    to the extent specifically required by law; or

b.    for the purposes of this service agreement (including disclosing information in connection with any query or claim).
