AGREEMENT - This document,
along with any other documents we give you pertaining to
your account(s), is a contract that establishes rules which
control your account(s) with us. Please read this carefully.
If you sign the signature card or open or continue to have
your account with us, you agree to these rules. You will
receive a separate schedule of rates, qualifying balances,
and fees if they are not included in this document. If you
have any questions, please call us.
This agreement is subject to
applicable federal laws and the laws of the state of Florida
(except to the extent that this agreement can and does vary
such rules or laws). The body of state and federal law that
governs our relationship with you, however, is too large and
complex to be reproduced here. The purpose of this document
is to:
- summarize some laws that
apply to common transactions;
- establish rules to cover
transactions or events which the law does not regulate;
- establish rules for
certain transactions or events which the law regulates
but permits variation by agreement; and
- give you disclosures of
some of our policies to which you may be entitled or in
which you may be interested.
If any provision of this document is
found to be unenforceable according to its terms, all
remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
We may permit some variations from our standard agreement,
but we must agree to any variation in writing either on the
signature card for your account or in some other document.
As used in this document the words
"we," "our," and "us" mean the
financial institution and the words "you" and
"your" mean the account holder(s) and anyone else
with the authority to deposit, withdraw, or exercise control
over the funds in the account. The headings in this document
are for convenience or reference only and will not govern
the interpretation of the provisions. Unless it would be
inconsistent to do so, words and phrases used in this
document should be construed so the singular includes the
plural and the plural includes the singular.
"Party" means a person who, by the terms of an
account, has a present right, subject to request, to payment
from the account other than as a beneficiary or agent.
LIABILITY - You agree, for
yourself (and the person or entity you represent if you sign
as a representative of another) to the terms of this account
and the schedule of charges. You authorize us to deduct
these charges directly from the account balance as accrued.
You will pay any additional reasonable charges for services
you request which are not covered by this agreement.
Each of you also agrees to be jointly
and severally (individually) liable for any account shortage
resulting from charges or overdrafts, whether caused by you
or another with access to this account. This liability is
due immediately, and can be deducted directly from the
account balance whenever sufficient funds are available. You
have no right to defer payment of this liability, and you
are liable regardless of whether you signed the item or
benefited from the charge or overdraft. This includes
liability for our costs to collect the deficit including, to
the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneys' fees.
DEPOSITS - We will give only
provisional credit until collection is final for any items,
other than cash, we accept for deposit (including items
drawn "on us"). Actual credit for deposits of, or
payable in, foreign currency will be at the exchange rate in
effect on final collection in U.S. dollars. We are not
responsible for transactions by mail or outside depository
until we actually record them. We will treat and record all
transactions received after our "daily cutoff
time" on a business day we are open, or received on a
day we are not open for business, as if initiated on the
next following business day that we are open.
WITHDRAWALS - Unless clearly
indicated otherwise on the account records, any of you,
acting alone, who signs in the space designated for
signatures on the signature card may withdraw or transfer
all or any part of the account balance at any time. Each of
you (until we receive written notice to the contrary)
authorizes each other person signing the signature card to
indorse any item payable to you or your order for deposit to
this account or any other transaction with us. We may charge
your account for a check even though payment was made before
the date of the check, unless we have received written
notice of the postdating in time to have a reasonable
opportunity to act. We may refuse any withdrawal or transfer
request which you attempt on forms not approved by us, by
any method we do not specifically permit, which is greater
in number than the frequency permitted, or which is for an
amount greater or less than any withdrawal limitations. Even
if we honor a nonconforming request, we may treat continued
abuse of the stated limitations (if any) as your act of
closing the account. We will use the date the transaction is
completed by us (as opposed to the date you initiate it) to
apply the frequency limitations. The fact that we may honor
withdrawal requests that overdraw the available account
balance does not obligate us to do so later. See the funds
availability policy disclosure for information about when
you can withdraw funds you deposit. For those accounts for
which our funds availability policy disclosure does not
apply, you can ask us when you make a deposit when those
funds will be available for withdrawal.
We may require not less than 7 days'
notice in writing before each withdrawal from an
interest-bearing account other than a time deposit, or from
any other savings account as defined by Regulation D.
Withdrawals from a time account prior to maturity or prior
to any notice period may be restricted and may be subject to
penalty. See your notice of penalty for early withdrawal.
OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNT AND
BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION - These rules apply to this
account depending on the form of ownership and beneficiary
designation, if any, specified on the account records. We
make no representations as to the appropriateness or effect
of the ownership and beneficiary designations, except as
they determine to whom we pay the account funds.
Single-Party Account - Such an
account is owned by one party.
Multiple-Party Account - Such
an account is payable on request to one or more of two or
more parties, whether or not a right of survivorship is
mentioned.
Multiple-Party Account - Tenancy by
the Entireties - The parties to the account are husband
and wife and hold the account as tenants by the entirety.
RIGHTS AT DEATH - Single-Party
Account - At the death of a party, ownership passes as
part of the party's estate.
RIGHTS AT DEATH - Single-Party
Account - At the death of a party, ownership passes as
part of the party's estate. |
| |
|
|
Multiple-Party Account With Right of
Survivorship - At
death of party, ownership passes to the surviving party or
parties.
Multiple-Party Account Without Right of
Survivorship - At death of party, deceased party's
ownership passes as part of deceased party's estate.
Single-Party Account With Pay-on-Death
Designation - At death of the party, ownership passes to
the designated pay-on-death beneficiaries and is not part of
the party's estate.
Multiple-Party Account With Right of
Survivorship and Pay-on-Death Designation - At death of
last surviving party, ownership passes to the designated
pay-on-death beneficiaries and is not part of the last
surviving party's estate.
BUSINESS ACCOUNTS - Earnings in the form of
interest, dividends, or credits will be paid only on
collected funds, unless otherwise provided by law or our
policy. We may require the governing body of the legal
entity opening the account to give us a separate
authorization telling us who is authorized to act on its
behalf. We will honor the authorization until we actually
receive written notice of a change from the governing body
of the legal entity.
STOP PAYMENTS - You must make any
stop-payment order in the manner required by law and we must
receive it in time to give us a reasonable opportunity to
act on it before our stop-payment cutoff time. To be
effective, your stop-payment order must precisely identify
the number, date and amount of the item, and the payee.
You may stop payment on any item drawn on your
account whether you sign the item or not, if you have an
equal or greater right to withdraw from this account than
the person who signed the item. A release of the
stop-payment request may be made only by the person who
initiated the stop-payment order.
Our stop-payment cutoff time is one hour after the
opening of the next banking day after the banking day on
which we receive the item. Additional limitations on our
obligation to stop payment are provided by law (e.g., we
paid the item in cash or we certified the item).
TELEPHONE TRANSFERS - A telephone transfer
of funds from this account to another account with us, if
otherwise arranged for or permitted, may be made by the same
persons and under the same conditions generally applicable
to withdrawals made in writing. Unless a different
limitation is disclosed in writing, we restrict the number
of transfers from a savings account to another account or to
third parties, to a maximum of six per month (less the
number of "preauthorized transfers" during the
month). Other account transfer restrictions may be described
elsewhere.
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION - We may change
any term of this agreement. Rules governing changes in
interest rates are provided separately. For other changes,
we will give you reasonable notice in writing or by any
other method permitted by law. We may also close this
account at any time upon reasonable notice to you and tender
of the account balance personally or by mail. Notice from us
to any one of you is notice to all of you.
STATEMENTS - You must examine your statement
of account with "reasonable promptness." If you
discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any
unauthorized signatures or alterations, you must promptly
notify us of the relevant facts. As between you and us, if
you fail to do either of these duties, you will have to
either share the loss with us, or bear the loss entirely
yourself (depending on whether we used ordinary care and, if
not, whether we substantially contributed to the loss). The
loss could be not only with respect to items on the
statement but other items with unauthorized signatures or
alterations by the same wrongdoer.
You agree that the time you have to examine your
statement and report to us will depend on the circumstances,
but will not, in any circumstance, exceed a total of 30 days
from when the statement is first sent or made available to
you.
You further agree that if you fail to report any
unauthorized signatures, alterations, forgeries, or any
other errors in your account within 60 days of when we first
send or make the statement available, you cannot assert a
claim against us on any items in that statement, and as
between you and us the loss will be entirely yours. This
60-day limitation is without regard to whether we used
ordinary care. The limitation in this paragraph is in
addition to that contained in the first paragraph of this
section.
ACCOUNT TRANSFER - This account may not be
transferred or assigned without our prior written consent.
DIRECT DEPOSITS - If, in connection with a
direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in an account
which should have been returned to the Federal Government
for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of our
liability to the Federal Government from the account or from
any other account you have with us, without prior notice and
at any time, except as prohibited by law. We may also use
any other legal remedy to recover the amount of our
liability.
TEMPORARY ACCOUNT AGREEMENT - If this option
is selected, this is a temporary account agreement. Each
person who signs in the space designated for signatures on
the signature card (except as indicated to the contrary) may
transact business on this account. However, we may at some
time in the future restrict or prohibit further use of this
account if you fail to comply with the requirements we have
imposed within a reasonable time.
SETOFF - We may (without prior notice and
when permitted by law) set off the funds in this account
against any due and payable debt you owe us now or in the
future, by any of you having the right of withdrawal, to the
extent of such persons' or legal entity's right to withdraw.
If the debt arises from a note, "any due and payable
debt" includes the total amount of which we are
entitled to demand payment under the terms of the note at
the time we set off, including any balance the due date for
which we properly accelerate under the note.
This right of setoff does not apply to this account
if: (a) it is an IRA or other tax-deferred retirement
account, or (b) the debt is created by a consumer credit
transaction under a credit card plan (but this does not
affect our rights under any consensual security interest),
or (c) the debtor's right of withdrawal only arises in a
representative capacity. We will not be liable for the
dishonor of any check when the dishonor occurs because we
set off a debt against this account. You agree to hold us
harmless from any claim arising as a result of our exercise
of our right of setoff.
CONVENIENCE ACCOUNT AGENT (Single-Party Accounts
only) - A convenience account, as defined by Florida
law, means a deposit account other than a certificate of
deposit, in the name of one individual, in which one or more
individuals have been designated as agent with the right to
make deposits to and withdraw funds from or draw checks on
such account on the owner's behalf. A single individual is
the owner, and the agent is merely designated to conduct
transactions on the owner's behalf. Only the owner may
designate, substitute, or remove an agent. We undertake no
obligation to monitor transactions to determine that they
are on the owner's behalf.
RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS - We are not required to
honor any restrictive legend on checks you write unless we
have agreed in writing to the restriction. Examples of
restrictive legends are "must be presented within 90
days" or "not valid for more than $1,000.00."
PAYMENT ORDER OF ITEMS - The law permits us
to pay items (such as checks or drafts) drawn on your
account in any order. To assist you in handling your account
with us, we are providing you with the following information
regarding how we process the items that you write. When
processing items drawn on your account, our policy is to pay
them in numerical sequence. Lower item numbers are paid
first. The order in which items are paid is important if
there is not enough money in your account to pay all of the
items that are presented. There is no policy that is
favorable in every instance. If the smallest items are paid
first, you may have fewer NSF or overdraft fees, but the
largest, and perhaps more important items (such as rent or
mortgage payments) might not be paid. If an item is
presented without sufficient funds in your account to pay
it, we may, at our discretion, pay the item (creating an
overdraft) or return the item (NSF). The amounts of the
overdraft and NSF fees are disclosed elsewhere. By paying
items in numerical sequence, we think our policy attains a
reasonable balance between minimizing additional cost to you
and paying your more important items. We encourage you to
make careful records and practice good account management.
This will help you to avoid writing checks or drafts without
sufficient funds and incurring the resulting fees.
ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS - This agreement is
subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code - Fund
Transfers as adopted in the state in which you have your
account with us. If you originate a fund transfer for which
Fedwire is used, and you identify by name and number a
beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial
institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or
beneficiary financial institution may rely on the
identifying number to make payment. We may rely on the
number even if it identifies a financial institution, person
or account other than the one named. You agree to be bound
by automated clearing house association rules. These rules
provide, among other things, that payments made to you, or
originated by you, are provisional until final settlement is
made through a Federal Reserve Bank or payment is otherwise
made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform
Commercial Code. If we do not receive such, we are entitled
to a refund from you in the amount credited to your account
and the party originating such payment will not be
considered to have paid the amount so credited. If we
receive a credit to an account you have with us by wire or
ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the
payment order or credit.
Checking and Auto Transfer Savings Accounts -
These Accounts consist of a checking sub account and a
savings sub account. The Bank may periodically transfer
funds between these two sub accounts. If your Account is a
Plan on which interest is paid, your interest calculation
will remain exactly the same. The savings sub account will
be governed by the same rules governing our other savings
accounts. This process will not affect your available
balance, the interest you may earn, FDIC insurance
protection, or your monthly statement. |

Indicated below are types of Electronic
Fund Transfers we are capable of handling, some of which may
not apply to your account. Please read this disclosure
carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for
the transactions listed. You should keep this notice for
future reference.
Electronic Funds Transfers Initiated
By Third Parties. You may authorize a third party to
initiate electronic funds transfers between your account and
the third party's account. These transfers to make or receive
payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed
by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearinghouse
(ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the
third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of
ways. In some cases, your authorization can occur when the
merchant posts a sign informing you of their policy. In all
cases, the transaction will require you to provide the third
party with your account number and bank information. This
information can be found on your check as well as on a deposit
or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide your bank
and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet,
or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you
have authorized to initiate these electronic funds transfers.
Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:
- Preauthorized credits. You
may make arrangements for certain direct deposits (such as
U.S. Treasury, employer payroll, or pension plans) to be
accepted into your checking or savings account(s).
- Preauthorized payments. You
may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from
your checking or savings account(s).
- Electronic check
conversion. You may provide your check to a merchant
or service provider who will scan the check for the
encoded bank and account information. The merchant or
service provider will then use this information to convert
the transaction into an electronic funds transfer. This
may occur at the point of purchase, or when you provide
your check by other means such as by mail or drop box.
- Electronic returned check
charge. Some merchants or service providers will
initiate an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge
in the event a check is returned for insufficient funds.
Overdraft Protection. You may set
up overdraft protection from another account to your checking
account.
Electronic Funds Transfer Act (EFT):
Addendum to Disclosure: Pursuant to 12 CFR 205.7(a) (4) of

PREAUTHORIZED
PAYMENTS
- 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 this brochure in
time for us to receive your request 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 14 days after you call.
Please refer to our separate
fee schedule for the amount we will charge you for each
stop-payment order you give.
- Notice of varying
amounts. If these regular payments may vary in amount,
the person you are going to pay will tell you, 10 days
before each payment, when it will be made and how much it
will be. (You may choose instead to get this notice only
when the payment would differ by more than a certain
amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would
fall outside certain limits that you set.)
- Liability for failure to
stop payment of preauthorized transfer. If you order
us to stop one of these payments 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 you have an overdraft
line and the transfer would go over the credit limit.
- If the automated teller
machine where you are making the transfer does not have
enough cash.
- If the terminal or system
was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown
when you started 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.
UNAUTHORIZED
TRANSFERS
(a) Consumer liability.
* Generally. 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 2 business days, you can lose no more than $50 if
someone used your card and/or code without your permission.
(If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen,
and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the
loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used
your card and/or code without your permission.)
If you do NOT tell us within 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.
Also, if your statement shows transfers
that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us
within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may
not get back any money you lost after the 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.
* Additional Limit on
Liability for Cash Cow ATM & Check 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 Cash Cow ATM & Check Card. This additional
limit on liability does not apply to ATM transactions, to
transactions using your Personal Identification Number which
are not processed by VISAŽ, or to commercial cards.
(b) Contact in event of unauthorized
transfer. If you believe your card and/or code has been
lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer
money from your account without your permission, call or write
us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure.
ERROR
RESOLUTION NOTICE
In Case of Errors or Questions About
Your Electronic Transfers, Call or Write us at the telephone
number or address listed in this brochure, 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 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
10 business days.
We will determine whether an error
occurred within 10 business days (5 business days for Cash Cow
ATM & Check Card point-of-sale transactions and 20
business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we
hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need
more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the
transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction,
or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint
or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your
account within 10 business days (5 business days for Cash Cow
ATM & Check Card point-of-sale transactions and 20
business days if the transfer involved a new account) 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 10 business days,
we may not credit your account. Your account is considered a
new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is
made, unless each of you already has an established account
with us before this account is opened.
We will tell you the results within
three 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.

NOTICE OF ATM/NIGHT DEPOSIT
FACILITY USER PRECAUTIONS
As with all financial transactions,
please exercise discretion when using an automated teller
machine (ATM) or night deposit facility. For your own safety,
be careful. The following suggestions may be helpful.
- Prepare for your
transactions at home (for instance, by filling out a
deposit slip) to minimize your time at the ATM or night
deposit facility.
- Mark each transaction in
your account record, but not while at the ATM or night
deposit facility. Always save your ATM receipts. Don't
leave them at the ATM or night deposit facility because
they may contain important account information.
- Compare your records with
the account statements you receive.
- Don't lend your ATM card to
anyone.
- Remember, do not leave your
card at the ATM. Do not leave any documents at a night
deposit facility.
- Protect the secrecy of your
Personal Identification Number (PIN). Protect your ATM
card as though it were cash. Don't tell anyone your PIN.
Don't give anyone information regarding your ATM card or
PIN over the telephone. Don't write your PIN where it can
be discovered. For example, don't keep a note of your PIN
in your wallet or purse.
- Prevent others from seeing
you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their
view.
- If you lose your ATM card or
if it is stolen, promptly notify us. You should consult
the other disclosures you have received about electronic
fund transfers for additional information about what to do
if your card is lost or stolen.
- When you make a transaction,
be aware of your surroundings. Look out for suspicious
activity near the ATM or night deposit facility,
particularly if it is after sunset. At night, be sure that
the facility (including the parking area and walkways) is
well lighted. Consider having someone accompany you when
you use the facility, especially after sunset. If you
observe any problem, go to another ATM or night deposit
facility.
- Don't accept assistance from
anyone you don't know when using an ATM or night deposit
facility.
- If you notice anything
suspicious or if any other problem arises after you have
begun an ATM transaction, you may want to cancel the
transaction, pocket your card and leave. You might
consider using another ATM or coming back later.
- Don't display your cash;
pocket it as soon as the ATM transaction is completed and
count the cash later when you are in the safety of your
own car, home, or other secure surrounding.
- At a drive-up facility, make
sure all the car doors are locked and all of the windows
are rolled up, except the driver's window. Keep the engine
running and remain alert to your surroundings.
- We want the ATM and night
deposit facility to be safe and convenient for you.
Therefore, please tell us if you know of any problem with
a facility. For instance, let us know if a light is not
working or there is any damage to a facility. Please
report any suspicious activity or crimes to both the
operator of the facility and the local law enforcement
officials immediately.

This policy statement applies to
"transaction" accounts. Transaction accounts, in
general, are accounts which permit an unlimited number of
payments to third persons and an unlimited number of
telephone and preauthorized transfers to other accounts of
yours with us. Checking accounts are the most common
transaction accounts. Feel free to ask us whether any of
your other accounts might also be under this policy.
Our policy is to delay the availability of
funds from your cash and check deposits. During the delay,
you may not withdraw the funds in cash and we will not use
the funds to pay checks that you have written.
Please remember that even after we have made
funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds,
you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are
returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving
your deposit.
DETERMINING THE AVAILABILITY OF A
DEPOSIT
The length of the delay is counted in
business days from the day of your deposit. Every day is a
business day except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal
holidays. If you make a deposit before 4:00 P.M. on a
business day that we are open, we will consider that day to
be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit
after 4:00 P.M. or on a day we are not open, we will
consider that the deposit was made on the next business day
we are open.
The length of the delay varies
depending on the type of deposit and is explained below.
Same-Day Availability
Funds from electronic direct deposits
to your account will be available on the day we receive the
deposit.
Next-Day Availability
- Funds from the following deposits are
available on the first business day after the day of
your deposit:
- U.S. Treasury checks that
are payable to you.
- Wire transfers.
- Checks drawn on First
State Bank.
- If
you make the deposit in person to one of our employees,
funds from the following deposits are also available on
the first business day after the day of your deposit:
- Cash.
- State and local government
checks that are payable to you if you use a special
deposit slip available from any customer service
representative.
- Cashier's, certified, and
teller's checks that are payable to you if you use a
special deposit slip available from any customer service
representative.
- Federal Reserve Bank
checks, Federal Home Loan Bank checks, and postal money
orders, if these items are payable to you if you use a
special deposit slip available from any customer service
representative.
- If
you do not make your deposit in person to one of our
employees (for example, if you mail the deposit), funds
from these deposits will be available on the second
business day after the day of your deposit.
Other Check
Deposits
The delay for other check deposits depends on
whether the check is a local or a nonlocal check. To see
whether a check is a local or a nonlocal check, look at the
routing number on the check:
If the first four digits of the routing number
are 0670, 2670, 0660, 2660, 0630, 2630, 0631, 2631, 0632, or
2632,
then the check is a local check. Otherwise, the check is a nonlocal check. Some checks are marked "payable
through" and have a four- or nine-digit number nearby.
For these checks, use the four-digit number (or the first
four digits of the nine-digit number), not the routing
number on the bottom of the check, to determine if these
checks are local or nonlocal. Our policy is to make funds
from local and nonlocal checks available as follows.
1. Local checks. The first $100 from a deposit
of local checks will be available on the first business day
after the day of your deposit. The remaining funds will be
available on the second business day after the day of your
deposit.
For example, if you deposit a local check of
$700 on a Monday, $100 of the deposit is available on
Tuesday. The remaining $600 is available on Wednesday.
2. Nonlocal checks. The first $100 from a
deposit of nonlocal checks will be available on the first
business day after the day of your deposit. The remaining
funds will be available on the fifth business day after the
day of your deposit.
For example, if you deposit a $700 nonlocal
check on a Monday, $100 of the deposit is available on
Tuesday. The remaining $600 is available on Monday of the
following week.
3. Local and nonlocal checks. If you deposit
both categories of checks, $100 from the checks will be
available on the first business day after the day of your
deposit, not $100 from each category of check.
If we cash a check for you that is drawn on
another bank, we may withhold the availability of a
corresponding amount of funds that are already in your
account. Those funds will be available at the time funds
from the check we cashed would have been available if you
had deposited it.
If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn
on another bank, we may make funds from the deposit
available for withdrawal immediately but delay your
availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds
that you have on deposit in another account with us. The
funds in the other account would then not be available for
withdrawal until the time periods that are described
elsewhere in this disclosure for the type of check that you
deposited.
CASH WITHDRAWAL LIMITATION
We place certain limitations on withdrawals in
cash. In general, $100 of a deposit is available for
withdrawal in cash on the first business day after the day
of deposit. In addition, a total of $400 of other funds
becoming available on a given day is available for
withdrawal in cash at or after 9:00 A.M. on that day. Any
remaining funds will be available for withdrawal in cash on
the following business day.
LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY
- Funds you deposit by check
may be delayed for a longer period under the following
circumstances:
- We believe a check you
deposit will not be paid.
- You deposit checks
totaling more than $5,000 on any one day.
- You redeposit a check that
has been returned unpaid.
- You have overdrawn your
account repeatedly in the last six months.
- There is an emergency,
such as failure of computer or communications equipment.
- We will notify you if we
delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these
reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be
available. They will generally be available no later
than the ninth business day after the day of your
deposit.
SPECIAL RULES FOR NEW ACCOUNTS
If you are a new customer, the following
special rules will apply during the first 30 days your
account is open.
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your
account will be available on the day we receive the deposit.
Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first
$5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified,
teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local
government checks will be available on the first business
day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets
certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable
to you (and you may have to use a special deposit slip). The
excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business
day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these
checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in
person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will not be
available until the second business day after the day of
your deposit.
Funds from all other check deposits will be
available on the ninth business day after the day of your
deposit. |
