Electronic Funds Transfer Disclosures
These disclosures, and their accompanying rights and obligations apply only to natural persons whose accounts are established primarily for personal, family or household purposes and only to electronic funds transfers made by such persons, which are governed by the Federal Electronic funds Transfer Act and Federal Reserve Regulation E. Your monthly deposit account statement shows the status of your account(s), transactions you made at ATM’s, merchant card terminals, and use of our telephone banking and internet banking services.
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 hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time period.
Your Responsibilities
You are responsible for all funds transfers you authorize using the services. If you permit other persons to use the services or your access codes, you are responsible for all transfers they authorize from your accounts. You should notify us immediately if you believe any of your personal accounts have been accessed or your access codes have been taken or used without your permission.

Electronic Fund Transfer Error Resolution
In case of errors or questions about your electronic transfers, call us at 1-800-598-5002 or write us 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.
1. Tell us your name and account number (if any).
2. 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.
3. 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 involving a Visa point of sale transaction, other than an anonymous Visa prepaid transaction, processed by Visa or 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from out 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 involving a visa point of sale transaction, other than an anonymous Visa prepaid card transaction, processed by Visa or 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 do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. An account is considered a new account for 30 days after the first deposit is made, you are a new customer. We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide there was not error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copied of the documents that we used in our investigation.
