This disclosure also states that prices of refund and no-refund products are likely to differ. • Refund of fee paid in lump sum— If a bank permits a customer to pay the fee in a single payment and to add the fee to the amount borrowed, the bank must disclose the bank’s cancellation policy. The disclosure informs the customer of the bank’s refund policy, as applicable, i.e., that the DCC or DSA: (i) may be canceled at any time for a refund; (ii) may be cancelled within a specified number of days for a full refund; or (iii) may be cancelled at any time with no refund. • Whether use of credit line is restricted—A bank must inform a customer if the customer’s activation of the contract would prohibit the customer from incurring additional charges or using the credit line. • Termination of a DCC or DSA— If termination is permitted during the life of the loan, a bank must explain the circumstances under which a customer or the bank could terminate the contract. • Additional disclosures—A bank must inform consumers that it will provide additional information before the customer is required to pay for the product. • Eligibility requirements, conditions, and exclusions—A bank must describe any material limitations relating to the DCC or DSA. The content of the short and long form may vary, depending on whether a bank elects to provide a summary of the conditions and exclusions in the long form disclosures or refer the customer to the pertinent paragraphs in the contract. The short form requires a bank to instruct the customer to read carefully both the long form disclosures and the contract for a full explanation of the terms of the contract. The long form gives a bank the option of either separately summarizing the limitations or advising the customer that a complete explanation of the eligibility requirements, conditions, and exclusions is available in the contract and identifying the paragraphs where a customer may find that information. Section 37.7 Section 37.7 requires a bank to obtain a customer’s written affirmative election to purchase a contract and written acknowledgment of receipt of the disclosures required by § 37.6. If the sale of the contract occurs by telephone, the customer’s affirmative election to purchase and acknowledgment of receipt of the required short form may be made orally, provided the bank maintains sufficient documentation to VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:25 Nov 16, 2011 Jkt 226001 show that the customer received the short form disclosures and then affirmatively elected to purchase the contract; mails the affirmative written election and written acknowledgment, together with the long form disclosures required by section 37.6, to the customer within 3 business days after the telephone solicitation, and maintains sufficient documentation to show it made reasonable efforts to obtain the documents from the customer; and permits the customer to cancel the purchase of the contract without penalty within 30 days after it mailed the long form disclosures to the customer. If the contract is solicited through written materials such as mail inserts or ‘‘take one’’ applications and the bank provides only the short form disclosures in the written materials, then the bank shall mail the acknowledgment, together with the long form disclosures, to the customer. The bank may not obligate the customer to pay for the contract until after the bank has received the customer’s written acknowledgment of receipt of disclosures, unless the bank takes certain steps, maintains certain documentation, and permits the customer to cancel the purchase within 30 days after mailing the long form disclosures to the customer.
