Evidence on authentication and execution of payment transactionsU.K.

60.—(1) Where a payment service user—

(a)denies having authorised an executed payment transaction; or

it is for the payment service provider to prove that the payment transaction was authenticated, accurately recorded, entered in the payment service provider’s accounts and not affected by a technical breakdown or some other deficiency.

(2) In paragraph (1) “authenticated” means the use of any procedure by which a payment service provider is able to verify the use of a specific payment instrument, including its personalised security features.

(3) Where a payment service user denies having authorised an executed payment transaction, the use of a payment instrument recorded by the payment service provider is not in itself necessarily sufficient to prove either that—

(a)the payment transaction was authorised by the payer; or

(b)the payer acted fraudulently or failed with intent or gross negligence to comply with regulation 57.
