Who is Bound by this Agreement

You will receive a monthly account statement reflecting all your transactions unless there is no activity in a particular month.  In any case you will receive a statement at least quarterly.  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, you can call us at 619-297-4835 to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.  If the only possible transfers to or from your account are direct deposits or pre-authorized deposits, you will get at least a quarterly statement from us.

Your Liability for Lost, Stolen or Unauthorized Transactions Involving Your PIN or Password

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Personal Identification Number (PIN) or password has been lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit if you have one with us). If you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your PIN or password without your permission. If you DO NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your PIN or password, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your PIN or password 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. If you have authorized someone else to use the PIN or password, you are responsible for all transactions that person or persons initiates at any time, even if the amount or transactions exceed what you may have authorized.

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.

Processing Electronic Images

We will review each Electronic Image received to determine whether it is eligible for processing.  If eligible, we will: (a) present the Electronic Image directly or indirectly to the bank on which the original check is drawn or through which the original check is payable (Paying Bank); (b) create a substitute check that we will present directly or indirectly to the Paying Bank; or (c) if we are the Paying Bank, present or post the Electronic Image.  If we determine for any reason that the Electronic Image is illegible, incomplete, or otherwise ineligible for processing, we will require you to present the original item for deposit. It is your responsibility to retain the original item for a reasonable period of time to ensure that it is properly credited to your account. The Credit Union is not responsible for errors in Electronic Images that may prevent or delay the deposit of funds into your account.  The Credit Union is not responsible for any image that we do not receive for any reason, including transmission interruptions.

All deposits are subject to later verification by us.  We may return or refuse to accept all or any part of a deposit to your Account using the Mobile Deposit service at any time and will not be liable for doing so even if such action causes checks or other debits to your Account to be dishonored and returned.  You are solely responsible for paying any overdraft or insufficient funds (NSF) fee charged by the Credit Union or any third party as a result of the Credit Union’s rejection of any item(s), or for any item(s) returned unpaid.

Cut-Off Time and Availability of Funds

Items transmitted using the Mobile Deposit service are not subject to the funds availability requirements of Federal Reserve Board Regulation CC, and therefore longer hold delays may apply to these deposited items. The first $225 of deposits received before 3 p.m. Pacific Time on a business day the Credit Union is open (a “business day” is any day except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) will be immediately available, and amounts in excess of $225 will be available on the second business day after the day we receive your deposit.  The first $225 of deposits received after 3 p.m. Pacific Time on a business day the Credit Union is open or on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays will be immediately available, and amounts in excess of $225 will be available on the third business day after we receive your deposit.  Funds that you deposit using the Mobile Deposit service may not be immediately available to you.  We will notify you by mail if we further delay the availability of your deposit.

Fees

All fees or charges associated with the Mobile Deposit service are disclosed in our Fee Schedule, as amended from time to time. At any time, in our discretion, we may add to or modify disclosed fees, subject to any prior notice requirements under applicable law (see Amendments). Your continued use of the Mobile Deposit service after the change becomes effective shall constitute your agreement to pay the disclosed fee.

Record Retention

It is your responsibility to ensure the safekeeping or destruction of the original item after the item has been transmitted.  You should securely store each original check(s) for a period of ninety (90) days after you receive confirmation that your deposit has been accepted. Please note that you are solely responsible for the security and storage of the original checks and you are solely liable for any loss or misappropriation of these checks.
