1. The time limit for resolution of customer complaints by the issuing banks shall stand reduced from 12 working days to 7 working days from the date of receipt of customer complaint. It means banks have to reimburse the customers, the amount wrongfully debited on account of failed ATM transactions within a maximum period of 7 working days from the receipt of the customer complaint.

2. Accordingly, Banks have to pay customers Rs. 100/- per day for delays beyond 7 working days from the date of receipt of the complaint.
