To comply with the requirements of the Australian government, from 1st January 2008 new customers will be required to provide us with a certified copy of ID (Passport or Driving Licence) giving name, address and date of birth. We will ensure confidentiality of your details is maintained.

With the increased costs we have to face we will be introducing new charges for the following:

1. With the new eBanking service that has been introduced, files to all banks are uploaded at 5:00 pm AEST. Commercial and Sampath Bank accounts will be credited by about 2:00 pm Sri Lanka time. Any transactions received after this time, will be uploaded on the next working day.

2. If you need your transaction to go through immediately (Commercial and Sampath Banks) or outside our normal working hours, we shall charge an additional $15.

3. If any details provided by you are incorrect leading to the remittance being rejected by the recipient bank or otherwise requiring us to re-remit funds, we will make an additional charge of $10 for such remittances.

4. To follow up on complaints of funds not being received, we will institute a search once you deposit $15 in one of our accounts. If the funds have not been received, we will refund the $15 together with the original remittance fee of $10. If the funds have in fact been received and deposited in the Beneficiary's account, the $15 deposit will be retained as a search fee.

5. A fee of $10 will be charged to provide a copy of past remittances.

6. There will be an extra $10 over and above the normal remittance fees charged for accepting funds on Sundays and Public Holidays or after 6:00 pm on weekdays.
