DON’T LET BANKS GASLIGHT YOU —  Your EFTA Rights Are Not Optional


Imagine this: You wake up, sip your coffee, check your banking app… and $3,700 is gone

No explanation. No permission. And when you call your bank, you get the same infuriating script:

“You waited too long to report it. Nothing we can do.”
“The transaction came from your phone—it must be you.”
“We investigated and found no error.”

That’s not just dismissive—it’s wrong. More importantly, it’s illegal.

Banks often cite policy to avoid honoring your rights. But under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA), you have clear protections—and R23 Law’s California Consumer Protection Attorneys are here to make sure banks follow the law.

Federal Law Says You’re Protected. Period.

The EFTA is not a bank’s suggestion—it’s a binding federal law. When you report unauthorized charges quickly, banks are required to reimburse you. Whether the fraud happened via:

  • Zelle, Venmo, or PayPal

  • ATM withdrawals out of state

  • Debit card use overseas

…you’re likely covered. But banks often stonewall until a lawyer gets involved. That’s where R23 Law steps in.

Bank Policies vs. Federal Law: Know the Real Deadlines

Banks often try to impose their own 48-hour deadline to report fraud. But under the EFTA:

  • You have 60 days from the date your bank statement is made available to report unauthorized charges.

  • Even if you miss the 60-day mark, your financial liability is limited—not unlimited, as banks would like you to believe.

Your Legal Rights Don’t Expire Just Because They Say So

When you act within that 60-day timeframe, the bank—not you—is on the financial hook. But even beyond 60 days, you may still be partially protected under the law.
