Each payment or transfer you initiated on a non-business day will be processed with the following business day’s activity. Information you obtain about your accounts using our Internet Banking service will not reflect transactions that have not yet been posted to your accounts. You should keep that in mind when you perform or attempt to perform any transactions on the basis of such information.
OUR LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO COMPLETE PAYMENTS OR MAKE TRANSFERS
If we do not complete a payment or transfer on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we may be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:
- If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough available money in the account from which a payment or transfer is to be made, or if the account has been closed or is not in good standing, or if we reverse a payment or transfer because of insufficient funds.
- If any payment or transfer would go over the credit limit of any account.
- If your equipment or ours was not working properly and the breakdown should have been apparent to you when you attempted to conduct the transaction.
- If you have not given us complete, correct or current account numbers or other identifying information so that we or a merchant or other institution can properly credit your account or otherwise complete the transaction.
- If you do not properly follow our instructions or if you provide us with wrong or inaccurate information or fail to correct or tell us about any inaccuracy of which you are aware.
- If you receive notice from a merchant or other institution that any payment or transfer you have made remains unpaid or has not been completed, and you fail to notify us promptly of that fact.
- If the merchant was a payee that you are not permitted to designate as a merchant (i.e. governmental agency, court etc.).
- If you do not instruct us soon enough for your payment or transfer to be received and credited by the time it is due.
- If a merchant or other institution (other than us) does not process your payment or transfer promptly or correctly.
- If the money in the account from which a payment or transfer is to be made is subject to legal process or other claim restricting the transaction.
- If circumstances or persons beyond our control prevent, delay, intercept or alter the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
YOUR LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY
You warrant that you will perform your obligations under this Agreement consistent with all applicable Bank rules and regulations and that all information that you provide us is accurate, timely, and has been authorized by you, and in the event that you breach any foregoing warranties, you agree to indemnify First State Bank of Purdy against any loss, liability, or expense. You agree to hold First State Bank of Purdy harmless for any and all acts of employees or persons who you grant access to or who gain access to your Internet Banking account. You consent, by execution of this agreement, to disclosure of your customer information to those that gain access to your accounts.
You are liable for all transactions that are initiated under your Login ID, even if the person(s) you authorize exceeds your authority. If you have given someone your Internet Banking Login ID and password or other means of access and want to terminate that person's authority, you must change your Login ID and password and notify us that transactions by such a person are no longer authorized. We may choose to change your Login ID and password or other means of access or take additional steps to prevent further access by such person.
If you believe your Internet Banking Login ID and password or other means of access have been lost or stolen, and you tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used them without your authority. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Internet Banking Login ID and password or other means of access, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using them without your authority if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
Also, if your statement shows payments or transfers covered by this agreement that you did not make or authorize, 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 lost after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that your contacting us would have prevented those losses.
If we complete a payment or transfer that you make or authorize and we subsequently learn that you have insufficient funds for the transaction, you agree that we may reverse the transaction or offset the shortage with funds from any account you have with us. In any case, you are fully obligated to us to provide sufficient funds for any payments or transfers you make or authorize.
