ACH AUTHORIZATION
Authorization Purpose
This authorization is for the collection of premium payments associated with the Aflac benefits I have elected through my employer, union, or related benefit program.
Authorized Debit Amounts
I authorize Platypus Payroll to debit my account for the amount necessary to pay my Aflac premium obligations as they become due, including recurring premium payments and any approved adjustments necessary to correct prior underpayments or over-payments, as permitted by law and applicable plan rules.
Timing of Debits
I understand that debits may occur on a recurring basis according to the premium payment schedule established for my coverage, payroll cycle, billing cycle, or other applicable schedule communicated to me.
Account Information
I certify that I am an authorized signer or account holder for the bank account listed below and that the information I provide is accurate.
Insufficient Funds / Failed Transactions
If any authorized debit is returned unpaid, rejected, or otherwise not successfully processed for any reason, including but not limited to insufficient funds, a closed account, invalid account information, or a stop payment order, I understand and agree that the applicable premium amount shall remain due and owing. I authorize Platypus Payroll LLC to reinitiate the debit as permitted by applicable law and NACHA rules, or to contact me to arrange an alternative method of payment. I further understand and agree that any returned, rejected, or failed transaction may result in the assessment of a $5.00 failed transaction fee. I acknowledge that repeated failed transactions or nonpayment of required premiums may result in delayed, lapsed, or terminated coverage, subject to the terms of the applicable benefit plan or policy.
Changes to Authorization
This authorization will remain in effect until:
- my Aflac Benefits coverage ends,
- premium payments are no longer required,
- I revoke this authorization in writing, or
- Platypus Payroll terminates this payment method.
Revocation of Authorization
I may revoke this authorization at any time by providing written notice to Platypus Payroll at least 10 business days before the next scheduled debit. I understand that revoking this authorization does not cancel my insurance coverage or eliminate any amounts I owe for premiums already due.
Corrections and Adjustments
I authorize Platypus Payroll to make correcting entries, including credit entries, if an erroneous debit is made to my account, in accordance with applicable ACH rules.
No Change to Coverage Terms
I understand that this authorization relates only to payment of premiums and does not alter the terms, conditions, or eligibility requirements of my Aflac coverage.
