Account Activity – Balances given by card readers may not reflect outstanding account activity made manually or very recent transactions. The JagCard Office will be able to provide a detailed transaction report to the card holder only. It is the cardholders responsibility to keep track of spending, in the JagCard Debit Account Program. If the cardholder attempts to use the account when there is not enough funds in the JagCard JagCash Account, the transaction will not be approved. However, should the rare occasion arise when, due to a systems problem or otherwise, a purchase occurs with not enough funds in the JagCard Debit Account (creating a “shortage” or “negative amount”), the “owed” funds will automatically be deducted from the next deposit. Alternatively, the JagCard Office will bill for a negative balance that is on the system for more than five(5) days and reserves the right to assess a $15.00 fee. The JagCard Office is entitled to freeze any funds remaining in a JagCard Debit account in the event a check or credit card charge submitted to us in payment is returned unpaid. Repeated cases of shortages or negative amounts will be grounds for cancellation of participation in the JagCard Debit Account Program. In the event the university must retain a collection agency to collect negative amounts from the cardholder, the cardholder may be assessed, in addition to the negative amount, administrative fees to the greater of $25.00 or 15% of such amounts, plus any applicable interest as permitted by law. The cardholder will be placed on hold until all charges are cleared.
Lost, Stolen or Damaged cards should be immediately reported to the JagCard office, or reported to Augusta University Police Department. You are liable for any unauthorized use of your lost or stolen JagCard, and all accounts on it, until we are notified. Once notified, we will block your JagCard, preventing unauthorized usage. Users may also deactivate their JagCard immediately online. There is currently no charge for replacement cards. Once a new card is made, previous cards cannot be reactivated. Cards that have become de-magnetized will be re-magnetized and no charge will be made for this service.
Error Resolution—If there is an error on a receipt of activity statement, or if the cardholder would like more information about a specific transaction, the JagCard Office may be contacted by phone at 706-721-0323 or by email at jagcard@augusta.edu within sixty(60) days of noticing the error. In the event of verbal notification, the JagCard office may require that the cardholder submit a written notification with ten (10) business days. If our statement shows transactions you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not inform us within 60 days after the statement was provided to you, you may not get back any money you lost if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from making the transaction if you had reported it in time.
Disclosure of Account Information to Third Parties: The JagCard office will only disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make (a) where it is necessary for completing transfers; or (b) in order to comply with government subpoena or court order, or (c) if you give your written permission. The University will comply with all applicable laws and University policy regarding the use of information of stored images.
Changes in Terms and Conditions—The University shall mail, email to your university email account, or deliver a written notice at least twenty–one (21) days before the effective date of any change in terms or conditions if the change would result in increased fees, charges, or increased liability for the cardholder.
