DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)(a) The liability of a customer of an association for the unauthorized use of a plastic card or other access device to a remote service unit shall be determined as follows: DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)3.3. If the customer notifies the association within 2 business days after learning of the unauthorized use or of loss or theft of the plastic card or other access device, the customer’s liability may not exceed the lesser of $50 or the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur before notice to the association. DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)4.4. If the customer fails to notify the association within 2 business days after learning of the unauthorized use or of loss or theft of the plastic card or other access device, the customer’s liability may not exceed the lesser of $500 or the sum of all of the following: DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)4.a.a. $50 or the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur within the 2 business days, whichever is less.

A customer must report an unauthorized transfer from the unauthorized use of a plastic card or other access device to a remote service unit that appears on a periodic statement within 60 days of the association’s transmittal of the statement to avoid liability for subsequent transfers. If the customer fails to do so, the customer’s liability may not exceed the amount of the unauthorized transfers that occur after the close of the 60 days and before notice to the association and that the association establishes would not have occurred had the customer notified the association within the 60-day period. When a plastic card or other access device is involved in the unauthorized transfer, the customer may be liable for other amounts set forth in subd. 3. or 4., as applicable. DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)6.6.

Notice to an association is given when a customer takes steps reasonably necessary to provide the association with the pertinent information, whether or not a particular employee or agent of the association actually receives the information. DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)7.c.c. Written notice is considered given at the time the customer mails the notice or delivers it for transmission to the association by any other usual means. Notice may be considered constructively given when the association becomes aware of circumstances leading to the reasonable belief that an unauthorized transfer to or from the customer’s account has been or may be made. DFI-SL 12.07(2)(a)8.8. If an agreement between the customer and the association imposes less liability than is provided by this section, the customer’s liability may not exceed the amount imposed under the agreement. DFI-SL 12.07(2)(b)(b) A customer furnishing another person with the plastic card or other access device to the customer’s account through a remote service unit shall be deemed to authorize all transactions that may be accomplished by that means until the customer has given actual notice to the association that further transactions are unauthorized.
