United States Sixth Circuit

In a case raising the issue of whether the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (EFTA) permits an automated teller machine's (ATM) on-screen notice to read that a fee "may" be charged when a fee "will" be charged, summary judgment for bank is affirmed where the use of the less definite "may", coupled with the more definite requirement that a user press "yes" to accept the fee to continue the transaction, put the user on sufficient notice that a fee would be incurred.
