Permission from Business to Return Funds

Answered by:

Question:

When another financial institution requests that we return a credit sent to one of our business accounts, do we need to get permission from the business owner to return the funds?

Answer:

What sort of credit? Most credit transactions are final at the time of crediting. You could not legally debit a customer's account to return the credit in most of these situations, but more detail to the question is required.
