Regulation E was created for the protection of consumers. Two methods that consumers use to keep track of valid purchases and transfers are the review of periodic statements and the review of receipts of EFT transactions. For this reason, Reg E covers the importance of these documents. In this course, we'll talk about what must be included on these documents, and where, to ensure consumers are fully informed about their EFTs. We'll talk about terminal receipt requirements and any exceptions to these rules. We'll also go over periodic statement requirements and the list of exceptions to those.
