If your payment was returned, it means the ERC was unable to match or process the payment. The most common reasons are listed below. 


Possible reasons
• The payment was sent to the wrong bank account. 
• The payment reference was missing or incorrect. 
• The payment was received after the order had expired. 
• Multiple orders were combined into a single payment. 
Important!
Always use the RF reference provided in the payment instructions. Do not use the proforma invoice number as the payment reference.  
What should I do? 
1. Verify the bank account details. 
2. Verify the payment reference. 
3. Check whether the order is still valid. 
4. If the issue remains unresolved send an e-mail to: accounting@erc.edu
