16. WHEN THINGS GO WRONG – AUTHORISED PUSH PAYMENT (“APP”) SCAMS.
16.1 Circumstances where we might reimburse you if you are the victim of an APP Scam.
Unless we have a reason not to reimburse you set out in clause 16.3, we will reimburse you, if you are so manipulated, deceived or persuaded by another person to execute a Payment using our service, to someone who you did not intend to pay or for a purpose other than what you intended, where all of the following apply:

ii. you are a Micro-Enterprise or a Charity.
iii. the money which was the subject of the APP Scam was executed in GBP from your GBP R360 eWallet:
(i) to a Payment Account which is denominated in GBP and located in the UK and not controlled by you; and
(ii) via the faster payments system.
In such circumstances, we will reimburse you the amount of money that you have lost as a result of the APP Scam, up to the maximum cap set out in the FPS Reimbursement Rules, less an excess of £100.
We will not deduct an excess from the amount we reimburse you if you were a Vulnerable Customer at the time the relevant Payment was executed, and the vulnerability affected your ability to protect yourself from the APP Scam.
It is extremely important that you are vigilant when instructing Payments. If you have any concerns at all about a Payment you are going to instruct us to execute for you, please contact us before instructing the Payment. For further information please contact us.
16.2 Reasons NOT to reimburse you for an APP Scam.
We will not reimburse you under clause 16.1 above, if one of the following circumstances applies:
(a) we determine that you:
(i) are a party to the fraud.
(ii) are claiming fraudulently or dishonestly.
(iii) are claiming for an amount which is the subject of a civil dispute or other civil legal action, or which was paid for an unlawful purpose.
(b) the Payment was a Money Remittance Payment. This is because we do not, for Money Remittance Payments, provide you with a Payment Account from which to send money and we are therefore not required to reimburse you.
(c) the money subject to the Payment is in a currency other than GBP.
(d) the money subject to the Payment is sent via a method other than via the faster payments scheme.
(e) the money subject to the Payment is sent to an account located outside of the UK.
(f) you reported the Payment as being as a result of an APP Scam more than 13 (thirteen) months after the Payment was executed.
(g) the Payment was executed prior to 7 October 2024;
(h) where we can demonstrate that you have, as a result of gross negligence, not complied with one or more of the requirements set out in the Consumer Standard of Caution, provided that you were not a Vulnerable Customer, and this had a material impact on your ability to comply with the Consumer Standard of Caution.
16.3 The Consumer Standard of Caution. The Consumer Standard of Caution sets out what is expected of you when you are authorising Payments and dealing with the App Scam claim. The Consumer Standard of Caution requires the following standard of care from you:
(a) The Requirement to have regard to any intervention made by us (including through the Confirmation of Payee system) and/or any competent national authority (such as the Police or the National Crime Agency).
(b) The prompt reporting requirement. Upon learning or suspecting that you were the victim of an APP Scam, report it promptly to us.
(c) The information sharing requirement. You should respond to any reasonable and proportionate requests for information made by us.
(d) The police reporting requirement. Upon our request, report the scam to the police or consent to us reporting the scam to the police on your behalf.
16.4 It will be more likely that we can demonstrate that you have been grossly negligent in complying with the Consumer Standard of Caution if:
(a) you proceed with a Payment, despite having been told that the name of the Beneficiary you have provided us with does not match the name on the account of which you have provided us with the sort code and account number.
(b) you rely upon a confirmation that the name of the Beneficiary you have provided us with matches the name on the account you have provided us with the sort code and account number of as proof that you are not the victim of an APP Scam.
16.5 Actions we may take if we suspect an APP Scam. If we believe or have a suspicion, acting reasonably, or if another financial institution informs us, that money in your R360 eWallet or any other money we have received on your behalf is held (directly or indirectly) as a result of an actual or alleged APP fraud, we shall be entitled to freeze money in any of your R360 eWallets, and/or not execute a Payment, and take action against you, as further explained in clause 16.8.
16.6 Length of time to receive a refund from us if you are entitled to a refund. As a result of being a victim of an APP scam. If you are entitled to a refund from us, as a result of you being the victim of an APP Scam, we will reimburse you within 5 (five) Business Days of you telling us about the APP Scam unless we “stop the clock”. We are entitled to “stop the clock” to gather further information to assess your claim for reimbursement. If we “stop the clock”, we must in any event decide whether your claim is to be reimbursed within 35 (thirty-five) Business Days of you telling us about the APP Scam. If you believe you are entitled to reimbursement under this clause 16, please contact us.
16.7 Indemnity. You shall indemnify us against all amounts we are required to pay to another financial institution, together with all associated losses, expenses and costs (including all interest, penalties, legal costs (calculated on a full indemnity basis) and professional costs and expenses), where:
(a) another financial institution has compensated its customer as a result of that customer claiming to have been the victim of an APP Scam; and
(b) any money that the relevant customer sent, as part of the APP Scam, was received by us and relates to you (whether or not this money was credited to your Payment Account).
16.8 We may deduct any monies you owe us in accordance with this clause 16 from your R360 account. In addition, if we terminate any Contract, we may use any monies we hold as a result of that termination to satisfy your obligations under this clause 16. You will owe us the balance of any monies you owe under clause 16 which we cannot obtain through your R360 Payment Account.
16.9 Checks conducted before we execute a Payment. Yes. We have implemented Confirmation of Payee, for Payments from your R360 GBP account where the Beneficiary Account is located in the UK. This means that when you provide us with new Beneficiary Account details, we will check through the Confirmation of Payee system that the name of the Beneficiary you have provided us with matches the name on the account with the sort code and account number you have given us. You will be provided with four possible outcomes from the Confirmation of Payee system:
(a) Yes, the name and account type you supplied matches the details on the account.
(b) No, the name is a close match.
(c) No, the name does not match the name held on the account.
(d) Unavailable, it has not been possible to check the name because: timeout, account does not exist etc.
16.10 If the name of the Beneficiary does not match the name on the Beneficiary Account. You should take extreme caution when placing a request to execute a Payment, where the name you have provided us with does not match, exactly or at all, the name on the account with the sort code and account number you have provided us with.
16.11 If the name of the Beneficiary does match the name on the Beneficiary Account. You should not take the fact that the name you have provided us with matches the name on the account, with the sort code and account number you have provided us with, as an assurance that you are not the subject of an APP Scam.
If you have any concerns that you might be the victim of an APP Scam, you must contact us prior to executing the Payment. In addition, If you suspect a scam, report it to:
