ACH debits wipe out account of deceased

We have an individual account that has been receiving recurring ACH debits monthly. The account owner died 6 years ago. The bank just found out about the death only days ago. No personal representatives have come forward or are known to contact. The most recent ACH debit was paid and overdrew the account. The account has now been overdrawn for 45 days. Can we return the ACH debits that occurred after the date of death? Although the debits have been occurring for years, the bank just became aware of the death of the account owner.

Consent Disclosures

Is an email consent disclosure considered "written consent" for ChexSystems? I have a lender who would like to email the ChexSystems consent disclosure to account owners and use their reply to the email as proof of consent. Does this satisfy the requirement that the consent be in writing?

Handling error claims on a series of debits

We received a dispute yesterday for 51 transactions for a total of $529.33 from May and June - the customer stated on the dispute packet that she first became aware of the charges in January 2024, but they were small dollar amounts, so she wasn't worried. She never reached out to us until yesterday (6/27/24) to dispute the 51 transactions from the same merchant that she suspected of fraud in January. Is the customer liable for the full amount since we could have prevented the 51 additional charges to post if she had reached out to us in January? Is that considered customer negligence?
