How we will use and share your information
(a) Credit reference and fraud prevention agencies
We may request information about you/your business and the proprietors of that business from credit reference agencies to
help verify your identity, and to check your credit status to help assess what product you are most suitable for and/or your
ability to repay any credit. Those agencies may keep a record of our request(s) and this may affect your ability to obtain
credit elsewhere.
NWB45685 (08/01/2019) NW onecard_CPB

While you have a relationship with us, we will continue to share information with credit reference agencies about how you

they may be ended, can be obtained from the credit reference agencies. The main credit reference and fraud prevention

automated telephony system 24/7 as well.

2.3 Authorising Users

you are confirming that Users are authorised to
make Transactions on your behalf which you are

(g) We might need to contact the Authorised Contact
who gave us written, e-mailed or faxed instructions
to confirm any details with them and, if we accept
telephone instructions, we’ll need the person on
the phone to complete agreed security questions
before doing this. If they can correctly answer the
security questions and appear to be an Authorised
Contact or other person authorised to act on an
Account or a Facility, then we can rely on such
instructions, assume they’re accurate and comply
with them.
(h) An Authorised Contact can ask us for copies of
any documents forming the Agreement at any
time during the life of the Agreement which are
available from your relationship manager on
request.

Unless we tell you otherwise, additional features or
benefits which we make available to you or any User
do not form part of the Agreement and we can
withdraw them at any time.
3. USING ACCOUNTS AND INSTRUMENTS
3.1 How you and others nominated by you can
authorise Transactions
(a) A Transaction is authorised where a User:
(i) follows the procedures required by a
merchant, which may include:
(A) entering the PIN or providing any other
security code;
(B) signing a sales voucher;
(C) providing any details requested; or
(D) waving or swiping a Card over a Card
reader;
(ii) uses a Card and PIN to obtain a Cash Advance
at an ATM machine or bank counter;
(iii) orally or in writing provides Instruments and
requests a Cash Advance or payment;
(iv) orally or in writing consents to the Transaction
after it has taken place.
(b) Authorisation can cover single Transactions, a
series of Recurring Transactions, or a future
Transaction of a certain or uncertain amount.
(c) You agree to meet all expenditure, charges, fees
and interest, incurred on all Facilities (unless
youre lawfully due a refund). This includes where
you or any User has exceeded the Business Credit
Limit or any User Limit, have continued to use an
Account or Instrument after it has been
suspended or cancelled, the Agreement has
ended or where the use of an Account or
Instrument causes you or any User to breach the
Agreement.
(d) We don’t guarantee that Instruments will be
accepted on all occasions.
(e) Were not responsible if any merchant or machine
fails to let a User pay or withdraw cash or where
we can’t provide any part of our service for a
reason beyond our control.
(f) There may also be times where circumstances
beyond our control mean that Transactions with
particular merchants are processed by us
following authorisation by a User even though
youve asked us to block Transactions with these
merchants. We are not responsible for your losses
if these circumstances arise.
(g) You may sometimes use your card to authorise a
payment where the amount that is to be paid is
not known, for example when you check into a
hotel or hire a car. If this happens you should be
asked to confirm the exact amount that will be
blocked on your account. If you have agreed that
an exact amount can be blocked, we will reduce
your available funds and that amount will not be
available for you to use. Once we become aware
of the amount of the transaction, we will restore
your available funds. Please note that if you make
the payment using a different card or payment
method, we will not know that payment has been
made and it may take us longer to restore your
available funds, but we will usually release the
blocked funds after 7 days.
3.2 When you and others nominated by you can
withdraw consent for a Transaction
(a) Generally once a User authorises a Transaction
then such authorisation can’t be withdrawn
unless:
(i) in relation to a Transaction that is due to take
place at a future date, we receive notice no
later than close of business on the Business
Day before it’s due to take place;
(ii) in the case of Recurring Transactions (see
below).
3.3 Recurring Transactions
(a) You can cancel Recurring Transactions either by
phoning us on 0370 010 1152 (Minicom 0370 154
1192) or by contacting the merchant. If you ask us
to cancel Recurring Transactions, we advise that
you should also give notice of the cancellation to
the merchant because our cancellation doesn’t
cancel any contract you might have with the
merchant, it just stops the payments coming out of
an Account.
(b) Recurring Transactions are not covered by the
Direct Debit Guarantee.
3.4 Foreign Transactions
(a) Card Transactions are carried out in Sterling. Any
Transaction in a foreign currency will be
converted to Sterling at the Payment Scheme
Exchange Rate (the rate provided by MasterCard),
at the date and time of processing. The number to
call for information on exchange rates is at the
end of the Agreement. You can also see up to date
rates at MasterCard.com/global.
(b) The Payment Scheme Exchange Rate is indicative
and provided for reference purposes only. The
rate applied to a Transaction might be different to
the rate which applied when the Transaction was
made as these can change regularly and it
depends when the payment scheme processes
the Transaction.

(c) The following Charges apply to foreign

(b) The Transaction will immediately reduce the total
amount that you or a User can spend under the
Business Credit Limit or a User Limit.
3.6 When we can refuse a Transaction
(a) We might refuse a Transaction if:
(i) any of the reasons in Condition 4.3(a) occur;
(ii) it causes you to exceed a Limit (taking account
of any amounts yet to be applied);
(iii) we’ve experienced systems or software

expecting; or

placed on a Card, Account or Transactions
and weve agreed to this.
(b) If we refuse a Transaction, we’ll, if possible, give
you the reason for the refusal and you may be able
to correct any information which led to it. You can
obtain this information about the refusal by calling
0370 010 1152. We may also tell you orally or in
writing.

be genuine, details must not be shared with them.
(e) Some third party providers might ask you for your
log in details and password to provide their service
to you. If you decide to give them this information,
this means that they’ll be able to see and do
anything you can on your accounts.

WRONG?

Transaction takes place
If you or a Cardholder, Authorised Virtual User or

or Authorised Lodge User gives us incorrect
Transaction details when making a payment then
we’ll make reasonable efforts to recover your
payment. We may not be able to recover the
payment and we may charge you a fee for trying.
If we charge you a fee it will be the same amount
as it costs us to try. If were unable to recover the
payment we won’t refund you.

(i) hasn’t been received by the payee; or
(ii) was our error,

fraud prevention agencies to prevent fraud and money laundering, and you could be refused services, finance or
