3 Use of the account

You agree that:

3.1 We will open a banking account for You, the type of account and styling of which will be indicated by You;

3.2 You will supply Us with the details of the signing arrangements (and any changes thereto) on the Account;

3.3 We may debit the Account with the amounts of all transactions carried out by You, and pay all cheques, promissory notes, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments drawn, made or accepted by You, whether the Account is in credit or otherwise;

3.4 We are authorised to receive and deposit any cheque to the Account, but the proceeds will be available only when the cheque has been honoured. If the cheque is dishonoured, the Account will be debited accordingly;

3.5 all cheque deposits are subject to a clearance period, which normally is seven business days, but may vary;

3.6 if a cheque deposited by You is returned unpaid, We will inform You within a reasonable period;

3.10 We will restrict the use of an Account when legally obliged to do so;

3.11 You will conduct the Account in a manner acceptable to Us;

3.12 We reserve the right to monitor the use of the Account for assessing compliance with and adherence to the product rules;

3.16 We may accept instruction by electronic means;

3.17 We must comply with local and international laws, regulations, policies and requirements with regard to anti-money-laundering, counter- terrorist financing and sanctions. We may therefore continuously screen, verify, process and monitor all your and any related information, instructions and transactions effected by you and/or on your behalf. This may result in your transactions or the use of your account being prohibited, delayed, withheld, limited, declined or conditionally approved, your funds being confiscated and/or our relationship being terminated.

 

4 Use of cards

4.1 Subject to Product Specifications, You and/or Your authorised representative may deposit and/or withdraw cash from the Account, and generally operate the Account through access to an ATM, SSK and a point-of-sale device by using the Card together with a PIN, if required.

4.2 You will select a PIN for Your Card. This is a secret number that only You know. This number must be encoded on the Card by Us and is used as a means of user identification. It is important that Your Card is not used fraudulently. You must therefore:

4.2.1 take proper care of the Card and the Card number;

4.2.2 not allow anyone other than Your authorised representative to use the Card and PIN;

4.2.3 always take reasonable steps to keep the Card safe and the PIN secret;

4.2.4 never tell anybody who offers to help, including any of Our employees, the PIN;

4.2.5 never write down or record the PIN.

4.3 You will be liable for any transactions performed with the Card if You have given Your PIN to someone else.

4.4 The Card is valid from the time it is issued or from the first day of the 'valid from' date on the Card, as the case may be, until it expires, or until the Agreement is terminated.

4.5 You may not cede or delegate any of Your rights or obligations in respect of the Card or its use.

4.6 You must sign the Card on the back with a ballpoint pen as soon as you receive it.

4.7 We are the owners of the Card and when the Account is closed, You must give the Card back to Us (or to any person who is authorised to act on Our behalf) or provide Us with written confirmation that Your Card has been destroyed.

4.8 If the Card, the Card number or PIN:

4.8.1 is lost, stolen or used wrongfully; or

4.8.2 is used by any person other than You or Your authorised representative;

You must notify Us immediately by calling the number provided on Your statement or on the Card itself or by contacting any of Our branches. You must also notify Us immediately if anyone obtains knowledge of Your PIN or if You suspect that this has happened. You will be provided with a reference number during the telephone call. You will be liable for and must repay to Us all amounts We pay or have to pay if the Card, Card number or PIN is used, unless it has been reported as being lost, stolen or used wrongfully. You will also be liable for any transactions that were made before the above notification but processed only thereafter.

4.9 We may debit Your Account with the amounts of:

4.9.1 all transactions carried out by You or with Your authority by means of the Card and the PIN; and

4.9.2 all transactions not authorised by You, but which have been carried out by means of the Card and PIN before We have had the reasonable opportunity, after the verbal notification in terms of clause 4.8 above, to prevent any further unauthorised transactions.

4.10 Except where a transaction is made by means of a PIN or by telephone or on the internet, You must sign a sales voucher or a refund voucher, as the case may be, each time the Card is used or the Card number is given to a merchant or supplier. By signing the voucher You confirm that the information on it is correct.

4.11 Unless You have notified Us that the Card has been lost or stolen in terms of clause 4.8, even if You do not sign the relevant vouchers, You will be liable for and must repay to Us all amounts We pay in respect of Your Card Transactions.

4.12 You must comply with all applicable exchange control regulations when the Card is used outside the common monetary area. Card Transactions made in foreign currencies will be converted into South African rand at an exchange rate determined by Us and will be shown on Your statements in South African rand. An additional fee may be payable by You for such transactions.

4.13 You may not use the Card for any unlawful or illegal transaction and it is Your duty to make sure that a transaction is lawful before the Card is used.

4.14 The Card may be used only for payments and transactions specified in the Product Specifications for that type of account.

4.15 When You use any electronic device, You do so at Your own risk and We will not be held liable for any loss or theft resulting from the use of any device.

4.16 When making withdrawals at ATMs outside the borders of South Africa, the daily withdrawal limit may be different from the daily withdrawal limit at ATMs in South Africa.

4.17 You authorise Us (which authorisation may not be cancelled):

4.17.1 to pay any purchases or services in respect of which the Card or the Card number is used and to debit the amount concerned to Your Account;

4.17.2 to debit Your Account with the amount of the sales voucher or any other cash amount withdrawn; and

4.17.3 to make the necessary entries to do the above and to reverse these entries when appropriate.

4.18 We will in no way be liable to You if any merchant or supplier does not accept the Card or the Card number, or if We refuse to authorise any Card Transaction.

4.19 If there are any claims or disputes between You and the merchant or supplier in respect of the nature, quality or quantity of any goods or services obtained by You from the merchant or supplier or in respect of any other matter, Our right to receive payment from You will not be affected in any way, nor will it give anyone a right of setoff or counterclaim against Us. You hereby acknowledge that no merchant or supplier is Our agent.

4.20 If a merchant or supplier refunds You, the refund will be credited to Your Account only if and when We have received a properly issued credit voucher from the merchant or supplier.

4.21 By keeping and/or using the Card You accept all these terms and conditions in respect of the use of the Card.

 

5 Contactless transactions

5.1 For the purposes of this clause:

5.1.1 'Contactless payment' means a payment transaction that may or may not require a PIN that is made for an amount below the contactless transaction limit and where the contactless-enabled Card is placed against a compatible payment device or within close proximity of the contactless-payment device.

5.1.2 'Contactless payment device' means a point-of-sale device that is enabled to perform contactless payments.

5.2 A Card may be enabled to make contactless payments.

5.3 You may make a contactless payment for an amount below the prescribed limits without the use of a PIN.

5.4 When You make a contactless payment without the use of a PIN, You do not have the right to dispute this payment or have it charged back.

5.5 You cannot make internet purchases or cash withdrawals at an ATM or cash withdrawals at retailer points of sale using contactless payment technology.

 

6 Interst

6.1 We will not pay interest on any account, unless this is specifically agreed in writing or where this is part of the Product Specification.

6.2 Where applicable, interest will accrue to credit balances, calculated on the end-of-day balance, and capitalised monthly.

6.3 Interest rates on credit balances will be the rates specified on www.nedbank.co.za or will be available from the NCC or at any branch, levied in accordance with the type of account indicated by You or, if applicable, the rates as subsequently agreed with You.

6.4 If the end-of-day balance is a debit balance, debit interest at the maximum interest rate for credit facilities, as prescribed from time to time in the regulations promulgated in terms of the NCA, or, if applicable, the rate subsequently agreed with You, will accrue to the Account.

6.5 We may change the interest rates on credit balances at Our discretion.

6.6 Interest on debit balances will be calculated daily from the date on which the Account goes into debit on the basis of a year of 365 days, whether or not the year is a leap year, and is debited monthly in arrear. Any interest not paid on or before the due date for the payment thereof will bear further interest at the rate applicable to this Agreement.

 

7 Withdrawals

7.1.1 daily withdrawal limits at ATMs;

7.1.2 withdrawal limits at teller terminals; and

7.1.3 cheque deposits having been cleared.

 

8 Deposits

9 No right to overdraw the account

9.1 You must ensure that there are sufficient funds in the Account to pay for any debits against the Account.

9.2 The Account must always have a zero or credit balance. We will only grant You credit if You apply for a credit facility and it is approved by Us subject to separate terms and conditions applicable to the credit facility.

9.3 If We have not granted You a credit facility but the Account has a debit balance, the full debit balance will be payable immediately. In such instance We will charge Our standard Fees to the Account and interest will be levied on the debit balance in terms of clause 6.6 above.

 

10 Fees and taxes

10.1 We will charge Fees in accordance with the prevailing Pricing Schedule, or as agreed with You. Such Fees will be debited in accordance with the prevailing Product Specifications.

10.2 The Pricing Schedule that contains information regarding the Fees, is available at any branch or at www.nedbank.co.za.

10.3 You confirm that You have read and understood the Fees for Your Account.

10.4 You must pay all Fees when due to Us.

10.5 We are entitled at Our reasonable discretion to vary any Fees, or the items attracting Fees, provided that if the NCA applies to this Agreement, no Fees will exceed the maximum amount or no items attracting Fees will exceed the stipulations of the NCA, as prescribed from time to time.

10.6 We will give You reasonable notification before Fees or items that attract Fees change.

10.7 Fees that attract value-added tax will include value-added tax.

10.8 In addition, if the NCA applies, You must pay any:

10.8.1 default administration charge imposed by Us to cover administration costs incurred because You are in default of an obligation under this Agreement; and

10.8.2 collection costs that may be charged by Us in respect of the enforcement of Your monetary obligations under the Agreement (other than a default administration charge); provided that such charges and costs will not (to the extent that the NCA applies to this Agreement) exceed the maximum default administration charges and collection costs prescribed from time to time in the NCA.

10.9 Interest at the interest rate applicable to this Agreement from time to time will be charged in respect of any Fees not paid on or before the due date for payment thereof and this will not prejudice, restrict or in any manner detract from Our rights pursuant to an act of default.

10.10 In addition, and to the extent permitted by the NCA (where applicable), all amounts that We may pay or incur pursuant to this Agreement due to Your default, including any amount actually disbursed by Us, either when collecting any payment owing by You or when exercising any of Our rights arising from any breach of Your obligations in terms of this Agreement, as well as legal costs on the attorney-and-client scale (including tracing fees and any collection commission), will be payable by You to Us on demand.

10.11 All applicable government levies in respect of the use of the Account will be debited to Your Account monthly and paid over to the relevant government body.

 

11 Statements

11.1 We will at Our discretion, issue regular statements relating to Your Account subject to relevant Product Specifications.

11.2 You elect to receive electronic statements.

11.3 At Our sole discretion an additional cost may be levied against Your Account for paper-based statements, whether posted or obtained at any branch or through any self-service or digital channel.

11.4 If the Account is overdrawn and if the NCA applies to this Agreement, We will provide You with a statement of Account as prescribed by the NCA.

11.5 Where the NCA applies We will provide You with monthly statements by post or email in accordance with the requirements of the NCA.

11.6 It is Your responsibility to check Your Account regularly and report any discrepancies to Us within 30 days of the date of Your detection of the discrepancy.

11.7 If there is a dispute regarding the items appearing on the statement, Our records will be prima facie (on the face of it) proof.

 

12 Income tax certificates

12.1 After February each year, We will generate:

12.1.1 an IT3(b) certificate only if the amount of interest earned on an Account is equal to or more than the minimum amount prescribed by SARS from time to time; and

12.1.2 an IT3(s) income tax certificate where applicable.

12.2 These certificates will be made available to You on request once they have been generated.

12.3 The certificates indicate the amount of interest accrued and interest paid in the particular tax year, irrespective of whether the interest is paid out in the same tax year.

12.4 These certificates will be sent to SARS regardless of whether the interest paid or earned is equal to or more than the minimum amount of interest prescribed by SARS from time to time.

13.1.2 You can choose a name for each MyPocket and can be renamed as many times as you like.

13.1.5 You cannot use a MyPocket at an ATM or point-of-sale device, and no cards or chequebooks are issued on a MyPocket.

13.1.6 You can, however, make third-party payments directly from a MyPocket.

13.1.7 A MyPocket cannot be overdrawn.

13.1.8 Because a MyPocket is linked to your Account, your linked MyPocket(s) will also become dormant or will be closed if your Account becomes dormant or is closed. Any funds in any dormant or closed MyPocket(s) will then be transferred to your Account.

13.1.9 A MyPocket cannot be converted into another type of account.

13.1.10 You may close any MyPocket at any time.

13.1.11 eNotes and No-funds Alerts are not issued on a MyPocket and a MyPocket is not linked to Nedbank Greenbacks or Nedbank Affinity Programmes.

13.1.13 Depending on the balance in a MyPocket, You will earn interest on an escalating basis up to the maximum prescribed by us from time to time. Once this maximum has been reached, interest will accrue on a descending basis.
