You further agree that DBS, its Affiliates and the Providers will be entitled (but not obliged) to act upon or rely on Electronic Instructions received from your registered current address and/or using your Security Codes or Soft Token ID on digibank app and hold you solely responsible and liable in respect thereof as if the same were carried out or transmitted by you and you waive all rights and remedies against DBS, its Affiliates and the Providers in respect of any loss, damage or expense thereby arising. You will be responsible and will be liable for all Transactions.

Any risk of misunderstanding, error, loss, damage or expense resulting from the use of digibank Services are entirely at your own risk and DBS will not be liable therefore.

You irrevocably and unconditionally authorise digibank to access your Account(s) for effecting banking (including digibank Services) or other transactions performed by you through the digibank app/Website. digibank will have no obligation to verify the authenticity of any transaction/instruction received or purported to have been received from you through the digibank app/Website or purporting to have been sent by you other than by means of authenticating through User ID/Password.

We are not obliged to give effect to any request to cancel or amend any Electronic Instruction.

In the event you give an instruction to debit your Account for payment of an amount from the Account, the instruction will be executed on a real time basis unless otherwise specified by DBS. You will not be able to give any instruction to DBS to stop payment from the Account and the amount debited from the Account will not be reversed to the Account.

You will not hold DBS responsible for not processing/effecting any transactions transmitted by you over digibank or any consequences thereof since digibank is only provided as a convenience to you and DBS neither assumes nor intends to assume any liability for any transactions carried/not carried over digibank. Without prejudice to the foregoing, digibank will also not be available during the period the systems of the Bank are not functioning for any reason whatsoever.

When the fund transfer facility is made available to you, it may be used for transfer of funds from digibank Savings Account to other accounts/prepaid payment instruments belonging to third parties maintained at DBS and/or at any other bank or third party in India. In the event such transfer of funds is from digibank Savings Account to accounts belonging to third parties maintained at any other bank, which falls under the network of Reserve Bank of India's Electronic Fund Transfer system, then the same will be governed by the Terms and Conditions applicable to National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT)/Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS)/Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) of RBI as provided on the Website. You will be responsible for keying in the correct account number, Mobile Money Identifier (MMID) (If applicable) and Indian Financial System Code ("IFSC") and other details, as required, for the fund transfer request.

This facility will be provided in accordance with the arrangement between DBS, its Affiliates and Providers and as per conditions specified by DBS from time to time.

4.7 Account Balance and Transaction History

You will monitor the balance in your Account and examine all entries in your Transaction history. You will report/notify the Bank as soon as you notice any transactions wrongly made or made without authority or inaccurate entries in the Transaction history or of any matter concerning your Account that may invite suspicion by raising a query directly through digibank app by selecting that particular Transaction. If You are unable to raise the query through digibank app, You should write to [email protected]. Unless disputed by you within 14 (fourteen) days of the Electronic Statement being made available for download, the same will be deemed to be correct.

It is vital that you take steps to prevent disclosure or discovery of the Security Codes provided to you as you are liable for financial loss incurred or Transactions carried out in connection with any unauthorised use of the Security Codes and you will not claim against DBS in respect of any such use or purported use.
You must notify DBS immediately if you have knowledge or have reason for suspecting that the confidentiality of the Security Codes have been compromised or if there has been any unauthorised use of the Security Codes (such as where you notice any unauthorised transactions or unauthorised access to your Accounts) or your Security Code has been disabled after a number of incorrect password attempts up to such number as may be communicated by DBS to you from time to time.
Section 3 of the Information Technology Act, 2000 (and amendments thereafter) prescribes the procedure for authentication of electronic records, which states that a subscriber may authenticate an electronic record by affixing his/her digital signature, and Section 5 provides legal recognition to digital signatures for authentication of electronic records. However, we have adopted the mode of authentication by means of verification of the Security Code, Soft Token ID or through any other mode of verification as may be stipulated at our discretion, which may or may not be recognised under the Information Technology Act, 2000 for authentication of electronic records. Therefore you are solely responsible to maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of the Security Code without any liability on DBS in this regard.
We will send you Alerts notifying you of transactions conducted on your Account. The nature of transactions for which Alerts are generated, the timing of Alerts and the mode of notification will be determined at our discretion. We will be forced to push these notifications to you regardless of whether your mobile number is registered in the Do Not Call registry or the National Customer Preference Register (“NCPR”).

Any cancellation thereafter will be routed as a 'chargeback' on the merchant through the acquiring bank and will take the time required to complete the process. There can be no guarantee of full/partial return of the amount.

We accept no responsibility for any charges levied by any merchant establishment over and above the value/cost of transactions and debited to your Account along with the transaction amount.

A purchase and a subsequent credit for cancellation of goods/services are two separate transactions. The refund will only be credited to your Account (less cancellation charges) as and when it is received from the merchant. If the credit is not posted to your Account within 30 days from the date of cancellation, you must notify us, along with a copy of the cancellation slip from the merchant.

Debit Card should not be used for any mail order/phone purchases and any such usage will be considered as unauthorised and you will be liable for all cost and consequences arising or relating thereto.

5.10.2 mVisa/Bharat QR

You can use your Virtual Debit Card and Debit Card for making payments to mVisa/Bharat QR merchants in India using mVisa/Bharat QR facility. You acknowledge that for using mVisa/Bharat QR facility you will have to scan the QR code of the relevant merchant, to whom you wish to make payment, and authorize payment after verifying the payment details. You agree that on completion of the mVisa/Bharat QR transaction, the amount for which you make payment to merchants will be debited from the digibank e-wallet or digibank Savings Account account (as the case may be) linked to your Debit Card. In case a transaction is disputed by the customer, the Bank will follow the standard procedure of raising a chargeback with merchant acquirer bank in accordance with the dispute resolution guidelines and can take minimum of 45 days for the disputed amount to be credited in the customers Account.

5.11 International Usage

Your Debit Card is accepted at DBS Bank ATMs and at Visa (or respective network) ATMs in India and abroad. Your Debit Card is not valid for payment in foreign exchange in Nepal and Bhutan.

Please Note: In case of international cash withdrawal transactions, the applicable exchange rates and fees will be levied.

Utilisation of the Debit Card must be in strict accordance with the Exchange Control Regulations of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) prevailing from time to time.

At the time of cash withdrawal at Visa ATMs (or other network ATMs) while abroad the screen will display 3 options for account selection - 1) Savings 2) Checking 3) Credit. Please choose the "Checking" option, as this option hits the Visa network. In some countries you may have to choose the "Credit"option.

At a few Merchant establishments abroad (especially in the United States of America), you may have to ask the cashier to swipe your Debit Card as a credit card. This is because in some countries "Debit" is connected only to the local network and the transaction may be declined, as it will not reach the Visa network. Your Debit Card will continue to function as a Debit Card.
