5. MEMBERSHIP SERVICES
This section provides further detail, including any limitations, about the Services we offer. The Table of Benefits shows the Services that are provided in accordance with the membership Option and Membership Type selected.

5.1.1 Card Cancellation and Replacement Service (SecureCardTM)
When you become a Member, we will ask you to supply us with the details of:
(a) your Card to be Registered where you have an Individual Membership; and
(b) Cards issued in the name of Family/Household Members, where you have Family/Household Membership, up to the applicable registrable card limit as shown in the applicable Table of Benefits.

(a) We may not agree to register all cards
Not all Cards are eligible for registration, depending upon the arrangements we have with particular Card Issuers. We will advise you if a Card is not eligible for registration when you ask us to Register the Card.

(b) We may not agree to Register Cards issued in a country other than Australia or New Zealand.
Only Cards issued in Australia or New Zealand are eligible to be Registered. At our discretion, we may agree to Register details of Cards issued elsewhere. If we agree to Register the details of a Card issued outside Australia or New Zealand, our only responsibility will be to use our reasonable endeavours to arrange for the cancellation of the Card after we have been notified that it has been lost or stolen. If we Register a Card which we believe to be issued in Australia or New Zealand, and it subsequently turns out not to be issued in Australia or New Zealand, then our only responsibility, from the time the Card was Registered, will be to use our reasonable endeavours to arrange for the cancellation of the Card after we have been notified that it has been lost or stolen.

We will not be responsible for debts incurred in connection with a Card issued outside Australia or New Zealand or for any other losses suffered in connection with such Card, except and only to the extent that such losses were caused by our being in default of these terms and conditions or by our negligence. We will not arrange for the replacement of lost or stolen Cards issued outside Australia or New Zealand. Certain Card issuers may require card owners to notify them of the loss of a Card directly. We will advise you when you notify us of a loss, if this is the case.

(c) Secure Sentinel Labels attached to Registered Cards
We have provided labels in your Welcome Kit that should be affixed to each Card, so that anyone who comes in contact with a lost or stolen Card bearing the label can contact us using the details printed on the label. Should your Card be returned to us, we will use our best efforts to return the Card to you or if relevant, your Family/Household Member.

(d) Notification of lost or stolen Cards
We will not accept notification of a lost or stolen Card by post, facsimile or e-mail. You must notify us by phone that a Card has been lost or stolen as soon as practicable after becoming aware of the loss or theft.

(e) Cancellation of Cards and Issue of Replacement Cards
After we have been notified that a Protected Card has been lost or stolen, we will report the loss or theft to the relevant Card Issuer and will ask the Card Issuer to cancel the Protected Card and to issue a replacement Card (where the issuer's processes permit this).

Some Card Issuers may not agree to cancel or reissue a Card unless they have been asked to do so by you. We will notify you (at the time the loss report is made) of the details of any Registered Cards where we cannot arrange cancellation or replacement and advise you to contact the relevant Card Issuer to arrange for the cancellation and replacement of that Card.

We will send you written confirmation of Cards that have been cancelled by us. In special circumstances and at our discretion, we may agree to attempt to arrange for the cancellation and replacement of Cards that are not Registered. At the time that you notify us that an unregistered Card has been lost or stolen, we may ask you to provide us with as much information as possible about the card and the circumstances surrounding the loss or theft. However, we do not accept any responsibility or liability whatsoever in respect of unregistered Cards, except and only to the extent that such losses were caused by our being in default of these terms and conditions or by our negligence.

(f) Liability for unauthorised or fraudulent use of Cards
From the time Secure Sentinel is notified by phone that a Card has been lost or stolen, until we notify the Card Issuer, we will be responsible for fraudulent or unauthorised charges made using the Card.

If:

  • fraudulent or unauthorised charges are made using a Card in the time between when a Loss Report is completed and the time that we notify the relevant Card Issuer that the Card has been lost or stolen; and
  • the Card Issuer has not credited the Card with the full amount of those fraudulent or unauthorised charges, following the completion of any investigation into the loss or theft by the Card Issuer, then subject to your approval, we will make arrangements for the Card to be credited with the amount of such fraudulent or unauthorised charges. Except as expressly set out in these terms and conditions, we will not be liable for any consequential or other loss or damage that may arise directly or indirectly in connection with a Card, or in particular but without limitation, loss that may be suffered as a result of a lost or disclosed personal identification number (PIN) or if the Card is left unsigned.


5.1.2 Mobile Phone Protection Service (SecurePhoneTM)

(a) Limits on the mobile phones we will register
We will only Register details of a mobile phone(s), in accordance with the applicable Table of Benefits, if the relevant Mobile Phone Service Provider provides the service for the mobile phone from within Australia or New Zealand.

(b) What information you need to provide us
So that a mobile phone may be Registered you will need to provide us with details of the mobile phone make or type, the mobile phone number, the handset serial number (IMEI number) and the relevant Mobile Phone Service Provider.

(c) Secure Sentinel labels attached to Protected Mobile Phones
We have provided labels in your Welcome Kit that you can affix to each Protected Mobile Phone, so that anyone who comes in contact with a lost or stolen mobile phone bearing the label can contact us using the details printed on the label.

(d) Notifying us of a lost or stolen mobile phone and temporary blocking the use of a mobile phone
In the event that a Protected Mobile Phone is lost or stolen, you must contact us by phone immediately so that we may complete a Loss Report in relation to the incident. We should be contacted even if only a SIM card is lost or stolen.

Once a Loss Report has been completed, we will contact the relevant Mobile Phone Service Provider to arrange a temporary block on the Protected Mobile Phone to prevent outbound calls. To enable us to perform this Service, you may need to provide us with passwords or PIN numbers used in connection with the phone. If your Mobile Phone Service Provider does not accept instructions from us and requires notification of the loss or theft of a Protected Mobile Phone directly from you, we will advise you to contact the relevant Mobile Phone Service Provider.

Mobile Phone Service Providers usually have terms and conditions which apply to the blocking of a mobile phone service. Your Mobile Phone Service Provider can provide you with details.

We will not arrange for a mobile phone service to be cancelled.

Should your Protected Mobile Phone be damaged or permanently lost, we will not repair or replace it (including the sim card).

(e) Retrieval of a mobile phone
If we are contacted by a person who has found a lost or stolen Protected Mobile Phone, we will use our reasonable efforts to have the phone returned to you; however, this will be at your own cost. Subject to your authorisation we can charge these costs to your nominated Card account.

(f) Liability for unauthorised or fraudulent use of your mobile phone
If:

  • fraudulent or unauthorised charges are debited to your Protected Mobile Phone account in the time between when you contact Secure Sentinel and we instruct your Mobile Phone Service Provider to block your phone; and
  • your Mobile Phone Service Provider has not credited your account with the full amount of those fraudulent or unauthorised charges, following the completion of any investigation into the loss or theft by your Mobile Phone Service Provider, then, subject to your approval, we will make arrangements with the relevant Mobile Phone Service Provider for the account to be credited with an amount equal to such fraudulent or unauthorised charges.


Except as expressly set out in these terms and conditions, we will not be liable for:

  • consequential or other loss or damage that may arise directly or indirectly in connection with a Protected Mobile Phone;
  • any fraudulent or unauthorised charges debited to your Protected Mobile Phone account if we are unable to arrange a temporary block on use of the phone because you cannot provide us with the password or pin number required by your service provider to place a temporary bar on the phone;
  • rental or lease payments (including penalty payments) in connection with a Protected Mobile Phone; or
  • fees or charges (including without limitation plan charges or resumption fees) or penalty payments payable or arising in respect of the provision, suspension, cancellation, resumption or reconnection of a Protected Mobile Phone service.


5.1.3 Change of Address Service
If we are notified of a Change of Address we will update the relevant Membership File; when specifically requested, we will also notify relevant Card Issuers and service providers of your change of address. We will inform you of the Card Issuers and service providers who participate in this Service when you notify us of a change of address and request us to provide this Service. Card Issuers and Mobile Phone Service Providers usually participate in this Service, however some require notification of a change of address directly by you. In such cases, we will advise you to contact the relevant service provider directly.

We will send a letter to you confirming which Card Issuers and service providers we have notified of your change of address. We will not be responsible for any loss you may suffer as a result of any Card Issuer or service provider failing to act on a change of address notification that we have provided to them.

5.1.4 Emergency Cash Advance
To be eligible for an emergency cash advance, you (or if relevant your Family/Household Member) must:

  • be more than 100km from your registered place of residence;
  • have had all your Protected Cards and any cash on hand lost or stolen;
  • be unable, in our opinion, to access alternative funds in a reasonable time; and
  • have reported the loss to the local police.
  • have requested a loss report notification with Secure Sentinel

We will assess your entitlement to receive a cash advance at or about the time that you request us to advance emergency cash to you. The amount of the emergency cash advance that you will be entitled to receive depends upon the Membership Option and Membership Type you have.

An emergency cash advance is repayable to Secure Sentinel within 30 days of receipt. Before we will agree to provide an emergency cash advance to you, we must be satisfied that you will be able to repay the amount advanced within the 30 days. In most cases, we will be able to provide emergency cash advances within 48hours of your request. This period may be longer depending on the circumstances including factors such as time zone differences and your geographical location.

5.1.5 Key Retrieval Service (SecureKeysTM)
We will provide you with key tags, with a unique Membership number in your Welcome Kit. You can attach them to your keys. Our contact details are printed on each key tag. You can notify us to put a note on your Membership File in the event your keys are lost or stolen.

Our contact details are printed on all luggage tags.

If we are notified by another party that your luggage has been found, we will contact you to arrange for the luggage to be returned to you, however this will be at your own cost. You may also record a contact number for yourself on these tags.

5.1.7 Registration of important documents and valuables

These may include (but are not limited to) details of documents such as a non Australian or New Zealand passport, driver's licence, Medicare card (Australia) or community services card (New Zealand).

You may also provide us with details of valuables for registration.

We have provided labels in your Welcome Kit that can be affixed to Registered Valuables. Should lost or stolen Registered Valuables be returned to us or we are notified that Registered Valuables have been found by another party, we will advise you of the whereabouts of these items and you will be required to arrange for their collection at your own cost.

5.1.8 Passport service
If you have a Registered or Protected Passport, we will notify you eight months prior to your passport expiring, providing you have given us its expiry date.

If you have a Protected Passport, we will notify the appropriate government department if you report it as lost or stolen to us.

If you have a Registered Passport, we will advise you of the nearest embassy at which you can report your passport lost or stolen.

In particular but without limitation, we will not be liable for any loss or damage that you or a Family/Household Member suffer or incur as a result of any label or tag provided by us, in connection with your Membership, falling off or being removed from any item. We expressly exclude any warranty that we have any control over lost or stolen Registered items.

Our coded key tags, phone labels and luggage tags are only intended to enable lost or stolen items to be identified quickly if such items are found bearing these labels or tags;

We will send you a Membership renewal notice at least 21 days before you are charged with the amount of any applicable renewal Membership Fee. This will give you the opportunity to advise us of another card that we should charge, or an alternative payment method agreed to by us, in respect of such fees, and will also allow you to notify us if you do not wish to renew your Membership.

You must advise us immediately if the card or bank account details provided to us for the purposes of charging your Membership Fees are no longer current.

If your Membership Fees are paid by a third party and that party does not renew your Membership, we will contact you directly to give you the option of renewing your Membership. If you elect not to renew, your Membership will cease.

Membership Fees are subject to change. Your renewal notice will display the annual Membership Fee payable in respect of Membership for a particular year.
