         We will also discuss and define the limits of liability and who is liable for what amount while providing some real-life scenarios. Details on the error resolution process for consumer notification to the financial institution, research time involved, and the timing of providing provisional credit; included will be guidelines on the "what if" there is no error, and providing notice to consumer, and any overdraft protection relating to that provisional credit being reversed.

         Included in the discussion will be liability (maximum amounts) of the consumer and financial institution when there is the loss of a debit card.

         As a financial institution, you have responsibilities and liabilities under Regulation E for your consumer accounts when there are unauthorized transactions.
