Bill Summary
This bill clarifies that a person is not prohibited from charging a fee for providing a replacement billing statement, a statement covering a custom date range or a statement requested for financial or legal purposes or for any other labor-intensive or nonroutine requests to provide copies of statements.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies the definition and usage of billing statements under Maine state law (specifically in Title 10, Section 9420). It defines a "billing statement" as a monthly account statement that a person is legally required to provide to a customer under federal law or regulation. The bill specifically allows businesses and financial institutions to charge fees for specific types of statement requests that go beyond the standard monthly statement, including replacement statements, statements covering custom date ranges, statements needed for financial or legal purposes, and other labor-intensive or nonroutine statement copy requests. This provision appears to provide flexibility for businesses in recovering costs associated with producing non-standard or additional billing statements while preventing arbitrary fees for routine monthly statements.
