Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers and Advisability of Prompt Reporting

If you believe your PIN has been lost, stolen or compromised, you should change your PIN before immediately using the Services.

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your PIN has been lost, stolen, or compromised. 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 any). If you tell us within two business days, you can lose no more that $50 if someone used your PIN without your permission.

If you do NOT tell us withing two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your PIN, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your PIN 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 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.

Credit Union Liability

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 exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:

If, through no fault of ours, you do not have adequate funds in your Account to complete a transaction, your Account is closed, or the transaction amount would exceed your credit limit on your line of credit loan, if applicable.
If you used the wrong access code or you have not properly followed any applicable computer, Internet access, or user instructions for making transfers.
If your computer fails or malfunctions or the Net Branch Banking Service was not properly working and such problem should have been apparent when you attempted such transaction.
If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, telecommunication outages, organized labor strikes, equipment or power failure) prevent making the transaction.
If the funds in your Account are subject to an administrative hold, legal process or other claim.
If you have not give us complete, correct and current instructions so that we can process a transfer.
If the error was caused by a system beyond our control, such as that of your Internet Service Provider.
If there are other exceptions that we may establish from time to time.
