ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFERS
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
The effective date of this disclosure is January 1, 2006. You can view a printer friendly (PDF) version of this disclosure to keep for your records.
The Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT) we are capable of handling
are indicated below, some of which may not apply to your account.
Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you
your rights and obligations for these transactions listed.
You should keep this notice for future reference.
BUSINESS DAYS: For purposes of these disclosures, our business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays are not included.
PREAUTHORIZED CREDITS: You may make arrangements for
certain direct deposits to be accepted into your checking
account(s) or savings account(s).
PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS AND WIRE TRANSFERS: You may
make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills or initiate
wire transfers from your checking account(s) or savings account(s).
If your payment order identifies an intermediate bank, beneficiary
bank, or beneficiary by name and number, we may, and every
receiving or beneficiary bank may, rely upon the identifying
number rather than the name to make payment, even if the number
identifies an intermediate bank, person or account different
than the bank or beneficiary identified by name. We are not
responsible, nor is any receiving or beneficiary bank, for
determining whether the name and identifying number refer
to the same bank or person. We may honor overdrafts on your
account when a transaction is initiated by preauthorized payment
or wire transfer.
Intermediate banks and/or beneficiary banks, if used, may deduct a fee from the total amount of your outgoing or incoming wires. We will not be given prior notice by these banks of when fees may be charged, if at all, and we are not responsible for these third party fees.

Documentation
TERMINAL TRANSFERS: You can get a receipt at the time
you make any transfer to or from your account using one of
our ATMs or point-of-sale terminals.
PREAUTHORIZED CREDITS: If you have arranged to have
direct deposits made to your account at least once every sixty
(60) days from the same person or company, the person or company
making the deposit will tell you every time they send us the
money.
PERIODIC STATEMENTS: You will get an account statement
from us for your account(s) if the account has had an electronic
funds transfer during the month or statement cycle.
Preauthorized Payments
NOTICE OF VARYING AMOUNTS: If these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell
you, ten (10) days before each payment, when it will be made
and how much it will be.
RIGHT TO STOP PAYMENT AND PROCEDURE FOR DOING SO: If
you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of
your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here is
how:
Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in the Error Resolution Notice in time for us to receive your request three (3) business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within fourteen (14) days after you call. Fees for stop payment orders are set forth on our current fee disclosure.
LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO STOP PAYMENT OF PREAUTHORIZED
TRANSFER: If you order us to stop one of these payments
three (3) business days or more before the transfer is scheduled,
and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or
damages.
Financial Institution’s Liability
LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO MAKE TRANSFERS: If we do
not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or
in the correct amount according to our agreement with you,
we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there
are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance: |
|
|
|
If, through no fault of ours, you do not have
enough money in your account to make the transfer. |
|
If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line. |
|
If the automated teller machine where you are
making the transfer does not have enough cash. |
|
If the terminal or system is not working properly
and you know about the breakdown when you start
the transfer. |
|
If circumstances beyond our control (such as
fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable
precautions that we have taken. |
|
There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with
you.
Confidentiality
We will disclose information to third parties about your
account or the transfers you make: |
|
|
|
where it is necessary for completing transfers;
or |
|
in order to verify the existence and condition
of your account for a third party, such as a credit
bureau or merchant; or |
|
in order to comply with government agency or
court orders; or |
|
if you give us written permission. |
|
Please also see our Privacy
Policy regarding our disclosure of your personal information.
Unauthorized Transfers
CONSUMER LIABILITY: Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used your card and/or code without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or code without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
ADDITIONAL LIMIT ON LIABILITY FOR CHECK (DEBIT) CARD AND
CREDIT CARD: Unless you have been grossly negligent or
have engaged in fraud, you will not be liable for any unauthorized
transactions using your lost or stolen check (debit) card
or VISA® credit card. This additional limit on liability
does not apply to ATM transactions, to transactions using
your PIN which are not processed by VISA®, or to commercial
cards.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
CONTACT IN EVENT OF UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFER: If you believe your check (debit) card or VISA® credit card has been lost or stolen, call toll-free (800) 322-4058 immediately. Please also notify us at the telephone number or address listed in the Error Resolution Notice if you believe your ATM, check (debit) card or VISA® credit card has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission.
ERROR RESOLUTION NOTICE: In case of errors or questions about your electronic transfers, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed below as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared. |
|
|
|
Tell us your name and account number (if any). |
|
Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure
about, and explain as clearly as you can why you
believe it is an error or why you need more information. |
|
Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error. |
|
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your
complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business
days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within ten (10) business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to forty-five (45) days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within ten (10) business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) business days, we may not credit your account.
For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to ninety (90) days to investigate your complaint or question. For new accounts, we may take up to twenty (20) business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.
We will tell you the results within three (3) business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
