Pre-Authorized Payments Consent

By clicking "Consent", you are agreeing to allow Access Communications and your financial institution to debit your account each month for all charges payable to Access Communications. You acknowledge that the amount may change from month to month as a result of actions you take, such as adding channels or changing packages. You also agree to waive the pre-notification requirement for these changes. However, Access Communications will notify you at least 10 days in advance of any price changes. Your financial institution will treat each payment as though you personally issued a cheque authorizing Access Communications to debit your account.

This authorization may be cancelled at any time upon notice by me/us. I/we acknowledge that, in order to revoke this authorization, I/we must provide notice of revocation to Access Communications.

I/we acknowledge that provision and delivery of this authorization to Access Communications constitutes delivery by me/us to the Processing Institution. Any delivery of this authorization to you constitutes delivery by me/us.

Access Communications and I/we agree to waive the pre-notification requirement set out in Section 11 of Appendix II of rule H1 of the Canadian Payments Association.

I/we undertake to inform Access Communications, in writing, of any changes in the account information provided in this authorization prior to the next due date of the Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD).

I/we acknowledge that the Processing Institution is not required to verify that a PAD has been issued in accordance with the particulars of my/our authorization including, but not limited to, the amount.

I/we acknowledge that the Processing Institution is not required to verify that any purpose of payment for which the PAD was issued has been fulfilled by Access Communications as a condition to honoring a PAD issued or caused to be issued by Access Communications on my/our account.

Revocation of this authorization does not terminate any contract for goods or services that exists between Access Communications and me/us. My/our authorization applies only to the method of payment and does not otherwise have any bearing on the contract for goods or services exchanged.

A PAD may be disputed by me/us under the following conditions:

• the PAD was not drawn in accordance with my/our authorization; or
• the authorization was revoked.

In order to be reimbursed, I/we acknowledge that a declaration to the effect that either (1) or (2) took place, must be completed and presented to the branch of the Processing Institution holding my/our account up to and including 90 calendar days in the case of a personal/household PAD (or up to 10 business days in the case of a business PAD), after the date on which the PAD in dispute was posted to my/our account.

I acknowledge that a claim on the basis that my/our authorization was revoked, or any other reason, is a matter to be resolved solely between Access Communications and me/us when disputing any PAD after 90 calendar days in the case of a personal/household PAD (or up to 10 business days in the case of a business PAD), after the date on which the PAD in dispute was posted to my/our account.

I have certain recourse rights if any debit does not comply with this agreement. For example, I have the right to receive reimbursement for any debit that is not authorized or not consistent with this PAD Agreement. To obtain more information on my recourse rights, I may contact my financial institution or visit www.cdnpay.ca.
