Email Indemnity Form 2020
CELL NO:
The terms below set out the arrangements between you the Customer and us the Bank in relation to processing of
transactions on instructions received through fax and email.
These terms are additional to the terms which regulate your account(s) with us (and if there is any inconsistency these
terms will override those terms). If you have more than one account with us, these arrangements apply to each of your
accounts.
Instructions
1. The Bank will be entitled to act in accordance with instructions which the Customer gives via fax or email
without obtaining any confirmation of those instructions. Further the Bank only needs to satisfy itself by casual
inspection that the signatures on the faxed or emailed copy resemble the signatures of the Customers’ authorised
signatories without need to confirm the same.
2. Liability
If the Bank receives a fax or email instruction which identifies the client’s account, and with signatures thereon
apparently resembling signatures of authorised signatories, the Bank shall not be liable to the Customer and
shall be and is hereby indemnified by the Customer for any loss or damages arising from that instruction, more
particularly, if the loss or damages is caused by an instruction which ultimately turns out to have been
fraudulently given.
3. Once the Customer has sent an instruction to the Bank via fax or email, the instruction will normally not be
cancellable. If the Customer notifies the Bank that it wishes to cancel an instruction, the Bank may (but will not
have to) try to comply with that. If the Bank does try, the Customer will bear any costs the Bank incurs as a
result, and if the Bank tries and fails it will not be liable to the Customer for any loss of any kind.
