ICBC shall reply within two weeks after receiving the application form; and the bank branch as agency shall complete necessary procedures to open Internet banking for any bank whose application is approved.
Ⅵ. Service Channel and Time

Ⅶ. Considerations
1. To ensure that the agency services of online payment and settlement are conducted appropriately, all banks must act in strict accordance with the Measures for the Agency of Payment and Settlement Business issued by People's Bank.
2. Entrusted online remittance is processed following the order that remittance will be first transferred to the correspondent ICBC branch and then to the remittee bank, thus banks cannot return the bank draft for this reason. Also, after the test key is verified, banks cannot inquire or return the bank draft for the reason that the test is not conducted by human operator.
