IN CASE OF ERRORS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR ELECTRONIC TRANSFERS

Telephone us at (386) 328-5555 or write to us at 306 South Palm Ave, Palatka, FL 32177 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 tell you the results of our investigation within 10* business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45** days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit your account within 10* business days 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 the error you assert is an unauthorized VISA transaction, other than a cash disbursement at an ATM, we will provisionally credit your account within 5 business days unless we determine that the circumstances or your account history warrant a delay, in which case you will receive credit within 10 business days.) 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 provisionally credit your account.

If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three business days after we finish our investigation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

* If you give notice of an error within 30 days after you make the first deposit to your account, we will have 20 business days instead of 10 business days.

** If you give notice of an error within 30 days after you make the first deposit to your account, notice of an error involving a point of sale transaction, or notice of an error involving a transaction initiated outside the U.S. its possessions and territories, we will have 90 days instead of 45 days to investigate.

OTHER AGREEMENTS

Except as stated otherwise in the Agreement, this Agreement does not alter or amend any of the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with the Credit Union.

OUR LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO MAKE TRANSFERS

If we do not complete a transaction to or from your account(s) 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:

  1. through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transaction;
  2. the transaction would go over the credit limit on your credit line;
  3. the terminal where you were making the transaction did not have enough cash;
  4. the ATM or network system was not working properly;
  5. circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, power failure, or computer downtime) prevented the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken;
  6. the money in your account is subject to an uncollected funds hold, legal process or any other encumbrance or agreement restricting a transaction;
  7. your ATM/POS/Check Card has expired, is damaged so that the terminal cannot read the encoding strip, is inactive or because your PIN has been entered incorrectly;
  8. your ATM/POS/Check Card or PIN has been reported lost or stolen and we have blocked the account; or
  9. failure to complete the transaction is done to protect the integrity of the system or to protect the security of your account.

There may be other exceptions not specifically mentioned above.

PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

The Credit Union will issue you Personal Identification Numbers (“PIN”) for Audio Response, ATM/POS, and Check Card for transactions that require the use of a confidential code or number. This number should be memorized – DO NOT write it on your ATM/POS or Check Card. Do not post it where it can be readily accessible. After memorizing your PIN you should destroy the notice disclosing it. If you forget your PIN, contact the Credit Union and we will issue you a new one.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR TRANSACTIONS

You are responsible for all transactions you make with an ATM/POS/Internet Banking/Bill Payer/Check Card or that you authorize another person to make with the Card. You understand that if you disclose your PIN to anyone, they will have access to all accounts identified by your account number. If the Account is a joint account, all transactions involving the account are binding on all Account holders.

RIGHT TO RECEIVE DOCUMENTATION OF TRANSACTIONS

You will get a monthly account statement reflecting all of your transactions unless there is no activity in a particular month. In any case you will get the statement at least quarterly. Depending on the terminal, merchant or financial institution at the time you make a purchase or obtain cash you will receive, or you may choose to receive, a receipt at the time you make a transaction at a terminal. If you do receive a receipt, retain the receipt to compare with your monthly statement from the Credit Union.

SEVERABILITY

If any part of this Agreement should be held to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

ADDRESS CHANGE

Keep the Credit Union informed of your current address to insure correct mailing of monthly statements and email address to insure receipt of any correspondence from the credit union.

TERMINATION

You may terminate this Agreement with us at any time. The Credit Union reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and/or your use of your ATM/POS/Check Card/Internet Banking/Bill Payer access/PIN with or without cause. We may do so immediately if:

  1. you or any authorized user of your ATM/POS/Check Card/Internet Banking/Bill Payer/PIN or account breaches this or any other agreement with the Credit Union;
  2. we have reason to believe that there has been, or might be, an unauthorized use of your ATM/POS/Check Card/Internet Banking/Bill Payer/PIN or account;
  3. you or any authorized user cause a loss to the credit union or do not keep your obligations,
  4. you or any authorized user of your ATM/POS/Check Card/Internet Banking/Bill Payer/PIN or account request that we do so.

WAIVER OF RIGHTS

The Credit Union can delay enforcing any of the provisions under this Agreement or the law any number of times without losing its right to enforce them at a later date.

WHO IS BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT

Each person who signs the Application agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If more than one person signs the application, all signers are jointly and severally liable. The Credit Union can waive or delay enforcement of its rights as to one signer without affecting its ability to enforce its rights as to the other signers.

YOUR LIABILITY FOR LOST, STOLEN OR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINE (ATM) CARDS

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your ATM/POS Card and/or Personal Identification Number (PIN) 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 have one with us). If you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your ATM/POS Card or PIN without your permission. If you DO NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your ATM/POS Card or PIN, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your ATM/POS Card or 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 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the close of 60 days and notice to us. 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 ATM/POS Card and/or PIN, 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.

YOUR LIABILITY FOR LOST, STOLEN OR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING YOUR PIN

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been lost or stolen or there are transactions you did not authorize. Prompt notification is the best way of keeping your liability to a minimum. If you tell us within two (2) business days, you may be liable for no more than $50 if someone used your PIN 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, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your PIN without your permission if you had told us, you could be liable for 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 be reimbursed for any portion of the amount 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. If you have authorized someone else to use the PIN, 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.

YOUR LIABILITY FOR LOST, STOLEN OR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING CHECK CARD

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Check Card and/or PIN has been lost or stolen or if your statement shows transfers that you did not make. 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 have one with us). If you tell us within 60 days of our sending your statement, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your debit card without your permission. 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 close of the 60 days and before notice to us. 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 Check Card and/or PIN, 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.

Additional Disclosure Applicable to ACH Services

DOCUMENTATION OF DIRECT DEPOSIT

If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from the same person or company, you may call us at (386) 328-5555 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 preauthorized deposits, you will get at least a quarterly statement from us.

DISCLOSURE OF RIGHT TO STOP PAYMENT

If you have arranged in advance to make electronic fund transfers out of your account(s) for money you owe others, you may stop payment on preauthorized transfers from your account. You must notify us in writing at any time up to three (3) business days before the scheduled date of the transfer. A stop payment request may apply to a single transfer, multiple transfers, or all future transfers as directed by you, and will remain in effect unless you withdraw your request or all transfers subject to the request have been returned.

If these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay is required to tell you, ten (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.

To place a stop payment, call us at (386) 328-5555, or write to us at 306 South Palm Ave, Palatka, FL 32177, in time for us to receive your request three 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.

Such stop payment notice will apply only to that particular payment. To be sure that a third party does not bill you again for the “stopped” payment or to cancel the entire pre-authorized payment arrangement, you understand that you are responsible for canceling the authorization with the third party.

The standard stop payment fees apply for each stop payment request you place. See the Stop Payment section of this disclosure booklet for complete details.

If you order us to stop one of these payments three business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages. You understand you are responsible for canceling the authorization held by the merchant.

You may use ACH services to perform the following transactions:

  • Make deposits to your savings and/or checking account or originate transactions to or from other financial service providers that you are authorized to transact business on; make loan payments;

All ATM/POS/Check Card transactions are subject to the terms and conditions of your account agreement(s) with us governing the affected accounts.

ATM FEES

When you use an ATM not owned by the Credit Union, you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer. A fee will not be imposed for use of an ATM/POS/Check Card issued by the Credit Union used at an ATM operated by the Credit Union.

  • Make deposits to your savings or checking account(s);
  • Make payments to your loan account(s);

LIMITATIONS ON TRANSACTIONS

You may withdraw up to a maximum of $500 in a 24-hour period from any ATM machine or POS transaction, if there are sufficient funds in your account. Various institutions which participate in networks of which the Credit Union is a member may have withdrawal limits different from the amount set forth herein. There is a limit of 10 transactions per day.

ACCESS CARDS

All ATM/POS/Check Cards are nontransferable and belong to the Credit Union. The Credit Union may cancel, modify and restrict the use of any Check Card upon proper notice or without notice if your account is overdrawn or where necessary to maintain or restore the security of accounts on the ATM system.

ATM SAFETY

An ATM provides a quick and convenient way to access your money. However, use caution and remember the following safety tips whenever you use an ATM:

  • Be aware of the surroundings, particularly at night.
  • Look for well-lighted ATMs when transacting at night.
  • If you notice anything suspicious when approaching the ATM, return later or use another ATM, you may use a merchant location such as a grocery store to make a purchase with cash back.
  • Have your transaction ready before you go to the ATM. Fill out any deposit or withdrawal slips/envelopes before leaving your vehicle.
  • Have your ATM Card ready to avoid going through your purse or searching through the contents of your wallet at the ATM site.
  • If you notice anything suspicious while you are transacting business, immediately cancel your transaction, put your ATM Card away and leave.
  • Consider having another person accompany you to the ATM.
  • Immediately report all crimes to the ATM operator and to local law enforcement officials.
  • Stand close to the ATM and away from others in line to avoid detection of your PIN or other account information.
  • Put your cash away as soon as the transaction is complete; count the cash later in the safety of your vehicle or home.
  • Never give information to strangers at the ATM or to anyone over the phone. Be aware of fraud or people who pose as Credit Union employees who try to get information from you. This information should only be discussed in person by you at the Credit Union.
  • Remember to keep your PIN a secret. Make sure not to write it on your ATM/POS/Check Card or anywhere else in your wallet; thieves can easily figure out the reason for “hidden” or “secret” numbers.

CARD ISSUANCE

“Card” means the Credit Union Check Card and any duplicates, renewals or substitutions the Credit Union issues to you; “Account” means the account designated on the application for your Check Card.

SPECIAL NOTICE TO VISA CHECK CARDHOLDERS

If there is an unauthorized use of your VISA Check Card or an Interlink transaction, and the transaction takes place on the VISA network, then your liability will be zero ($0.00). This provision limiting your liability does not apply to either VISA commercial cards or ATM cash disbursements. Additionally, your liability with respect to unauthorized transactions may be greater than the above zero ($0.00) liability limit, to the extent allowed under applicable law, if the credit union reasonably determines, based on substantial evidence, that you were grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your Account or Card. In any case, to minimize your potential liability you should notify us of any unauthorized use no later than 60 days after your statement was mailed to you.

MERCHANT DISPUTES

For POS transactions directly accessing a line of credit, the credit union is not responsible for the refusal of any merchant or financial institution to honor the Card. The credit union is subject to claims and defenses (other than tort claims) arising out of goods or services you purchase with the Card if you have made a good faith attempt but have been unable to obtain satisfaction from the merchant or service provider and (a) your purchase was made in response to an advertisement the credit union sent or participated in sending to you or (b) your purchase cost more than $50 and was made in your state or within 100 miles of your home.

LIMITATIONS ON DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND FREQUENCY OF TRANSACTIONS

Purchases made above the floor limit of the merchant will require an authorization number from VISA.

USE OF THE CARD

You may use the Card and PIN to:

  • Withdraw cash from your savings, checking or loan account(s) you have with the Credit Union at ATMs, merchants, or financial institutions that accept VISA card.
  • Transfer funds between your savings, checking or loan account(s) you have with the Credit Union.
  • Make deposits to your savings, checking or loan account(s) you have with the Credit Union.

You may use the Card without the PIN to:

  • Purchase goods or services up to $1,000 at places that accept VISA cards (these are point-of-sale or POS transactions).
  • Order goods or services by mail or telephone from places that accept VISA card.
  • Make automatic payments from your account to pay bills or other charges, providing that the person or organization that you are paying agrees to accept payments this way.

Some of these services may not be available at all terminals. Use of the Card, the Account number on the Card, the PIN or any combination of the three for payments, purchases, or to obtain cash from merchants, financial institutions or others who honor VISA cards is an order by you for the withdrawal of the amount of the transaction from your Account. Each transaction with the Card will be charged to your Account on the date the transaction is posted to your Account. When the Credit Union receives notification of a Card transaction, it will put a hold on an equivalent amount of funds in your checking account for 5 days or until the day the transaction is charged to your Account. All Card transactions covered by this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of your Account agreements with us governing the affected Accounts, except as modified by this Agreement. Any future changes to your Account Agreements may affect the use of the Card.

ILLEGAL USE OF CHECK CARD

You agree that your Card will not be used to make or facilitate any transaction(s) that are or might be construed to be illegal pursuant to applicable law, rule or ordinance, including but not limited to gambling. Said use, including any such authorized use, will constitute an event of default under this Agreement. You agree that the Credit Union has no liability, responsibility or culpability whatsoever for any such use by you or any authorized user(s). You agree that you are responsible for repayment of any and all debts incurred for these transactions. You further agree to indemnify and hold the Credit Union harmless from any suits, liability, damages or adverse action of any kind that results directly or indirectly from such illegal use.

OVERDRAFTS

You promise to pay the Credit Union immediately upon demand for any negative (overdraft) balance arising in your Account, unless you have available overdraft privileges. If you do not have overdraft privileges, the Credit Union may deduct the amount of any overdraft on your Account from any other Account you have with the Credit Union, except an Individual Retirement Account.

REFUSAL TO HONOR CARD

The Credit Union is not liable for the refusal or inability of any electronic terminal to honor the Card or to complete a withdrawal from your Account, or for their retention of the Card. The Credit Union is also not responsible for the refusal of any merchant or financial institution to honor the Card or for their retention of the Card.

FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS

Transactions that are initiated in foreign countries and foreign currencies will be charged to your Account in U.S. Dollars.

Wire Transfers

The Credit Union offers both incoming and outgoing wire transfer services for which the following provisions apply. These rules do not apply to transactions governed by the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, Federal Reserve Board Regulation E, or transfers by check, draft, or other written item. Ordinarily, the Credit Union also enters into a funds Transfer Authorization/Agreement for members who request such services. If you have entered into a specific Funds Transfer Authorization/Agreement with us, the provisions set forth below supplement but do not contradict that Agreement. In addition to your agreement, with the Credit Union, a payment order is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by the state whose law applies to the account which you are using for the funds transfer service (“Article 4A”). The applicable Wire Transfer Fees are reflected in the Schedule of Fees and Charges applicable to your Account.

  1. Sending Funds Transfers
    This section applies to wire transfers which the Credit Union sends to other financial institutions and to payment orders subject to Article 4A, we make between accounts maintained by the Credit Union.
  2. Processing Requests and Cut-off Times: We have cut-off times for processing payment orders, and we process payment orders on a same-day basis until such cut-off times. Cut-off times may vary depending on the particular office of the Credit Union and the type of payment order. We treat payment orders we receive after a cut-off time as received on the next banking day. We will provide you our cut-off times upon request.
  3. Amendment or Cancellation of Requests: You have no right to amend or cancel a payment order after we receive it. If you ask us to do this, we may make a reasonable effort to act on your request prior to the time we execute such payment order. However, we are not liable to you if, for any reason, a request is not amended or cancelled.
  4. Identifying Beneficiaries and Banks: The beneficiaries bank may make payment to the beneficiary based solely on the account or other identifying number which you have provided us, even if the name on the payment order differs from the name on the account. We or an intermediary bank may send a payment order to an intermediary bank or beneficiaries bank based solely on the bank identifying number, even if the payment order indicates a different bank name.
  • Transmission of Requests: You authorize us to select any intermediary bank, funds transfer system or means of transmittal to send your payment order. Our selection may differ from that indicated in your instructions.
  • Rejection of Requests: The Credit Union may reject for any reason a payment order. We will notify you of any rejection of a payment order from your account orally, electronically or in writing. We are not liable to you for the rejection or obligated to pay interest for the period before you receive notice of the rejection.
  • Notices of your Payment of Orders: We ordinarily notify you about payment orders by listing them on your account statement.
  • Interest Compensation

If we are obligated to pay for a loss of interest that results from our error or delay regarding your payment order, we will calculate and credit interest due to your account.

  1. Receiving Funds Transfers
    We may receive funds transfers directly from a sender, through a funds transfer system or through some other communications system. We may reject an incoming funds transfer for any reason. We are not obligated to notify you if we reject a payment order to your account.

a. Notice of Incoming Funds Transfer: We will notify you that we have received an incoming funds transfer by listing them on your account  statement. Generally, we do not send you a separate notice or advice regarding our receipt of an incoming funds transfer.

  1. Errors and Questions about Your Statement
    You must notify us at once if you think a payment order or incoming funds transfer shown on your account statement is incorrect. You must send us a written notice describing any discrepancy no later than 10 days after the date you receive the statement on which the problem or error appears. If you fail to notify us within this 10-day period, the Credit Union is not liable for any loss of interest because of an unauthorized or erroneous payment order or an erroneous funds transfer.
  2. ACH
    If your payment order or other funds transfer is sent or received through an automated clearinghouse (ACH) system, you will be subject to all applicable rules of such clearinghouse, and any applicable rules set forth in Federal Reserve Operating Circulars. Any transfer you receive through ACH is provisional. If final settlement is not received by the beneficiaries bank for a payment order transferred through an ACH, the beneficiaries bank is entitled to recover from the beneficiary any provisional credit given and we charge your account for amounts so credited.

Remote Deposit Capture

First Coast Community Credit Union
DepositFirst – REMOTE DEPOSIT CAPTURE SERVICES DISCLOSURE AND AGREEMENT

Effective: September 2023

In this Disclosure and Agreement, the words “I,” “me,” “my,” “us” and “our” mean, the member that applied for and/or uses any of the DepositFirst – Remote Deposit Capture Services (the “Services”) described in this Disclosure and Agreement. The words “you,” “your,” and “yours” mean First Coast Community Credit Union. The First Coast Community Credit Union All About Your Accounts Disclosure https://www.firstcoastccu.com/disclosures is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Disclosure and Agreement. In the event of a discrepancy between this Disclosure and Agreement or the Account Agreement, this Disclosure and Agreement will control.

Use of the Services. Following my acceptance of this agreement, I am authorized by you to remotely deposit paper checks through the DepositFirst application. I can remotely deposit checks I receive to my account with you (the “Account”) by electronically transmitting a digital image of the paper checks to you for deposit. My use of the Services constitutes my acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Disclosure and Agreement. I agree to comply with the hardware and software requirements set forth by First Coast Community Credit Union. (First Coast Community Credit Union iOS and Android Application version 2.3 or higher and/or a TWAIN compliant scanner for desktop use. Desktop use not available at this time.) I acknowledge I am responsible for all costs of using the Services and operating any device used to transmit images, including, but not limited to, telephone and internet service charges. Upon receipt of the digital image, you will review the image for acceptability. I understand and agree that receipt of an image does not occur until after you notify me of receipt of the image via onscreen messaging and/or email notification. I understand that, in the event I receive a notification from you confirming receipt of an image, such notification does not mean that the image contains no errors. I understand that I am responsible for any information I transmit to you. You are not responsible for any image that you do not receive. Following receipt of the image, you may process the image by preparing a “substitute check” or clearing the item as an image. I agree, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you reserve the right, within your sole and absolute discretion, to accept or reject any item for remote deposit into my Account. I understand that any amount credited to my Account for items deposited using the Services is a provisional credit and I agree to indemnify you against any loss you suffer because of your acceptance of the remotely deposited check.

In addition, I agree that I will not (i) modify, change, alter, translate, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile the technology or the Services, (ii) copy or reproduce all or any part of the technology or the Services; or (iii) interfere, or attempt to interfere, with the technology or the Services.

Guarantee Specific to Deposits Received for Credit to a Business Account. My use of the Services for the purpose of depositing to a Business Account constitutes my understanding and agreement that I may be personally liable for any expenses First Coast Community Credit Union incurs in attempting to obtain final payment for the item in question, outside of the routine costs associated with item processing, in the event of a default by the Business. This includes but is not limited to recovery of the amount credited in the event of non-payment, collection costs and attorney’s fees as applicable, as well as any and all costs associated with First Coast Community Credit Union enforcing this.

Guarantee. This Guarantee shall benefit the First Coast Community Credit Union and its successors and assigns.

Compliance with Law. I agree to use the products and Services for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as all laws pertaining to the conduct of my business if applicable. I warrant that I will only transmit acceptable items for deposit and have handled the original items in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. I promise to indemnify and hold you harmless from any damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or other harm arising out of any violation of applicable laws, rules and regulations. This indemnity will survive termination of my Account and this Agreement.

Check Requirements. Any image of a check that I transmit to you must accurately and legibly provide all the information on the front and back of the check at the time presented to me by the drawer. Prior to capturing the original check, I will endorse the back of the original check with my endorsement and the words, “For Mobile Deposit Only”. The image of the check transmitted to you must accurately and legibly provide, among other things, the following information: (1) the information identifying the drawer and the paying bank that is preprinted on the check, including complete and accurate MICR information and the signature(s); and (2) other information placed on the check prior to the time an image of the check is captured, such as any required identification written on the front of the check and any endorsements applied to the back of the check. The image quality for the check will meet the standards for image quality established by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, and any other regulatory agency, clearing house or association. If I send to you images that are incomplete, that fail to satisfy your image quality requirements, or otherwise do not allow you to meet the requirements of Check 21 or any image exchange agreement that would cover your further electronic transmission of images that I send to you, or you are otherwise unable to process images that I send to you, I agree you may charge the images back to my Account or any other account in my name. I agree to be bound by any clearinghouse agreements, operating circulars, and image exchange agreements to which you are a party.

Rejection of Deposit. I acknowledge you reserve the right to reject any image or item transmitted through the Services, at your discretion, without liability to me. You are not liable for any service or late charges levied against me due to your rejection of any item. In all cases, I am responsible for any loss or overdraft plus any applicable fees to your Account due to an item being returned.

Items Returned Unpaid. A written notice will be sent to me of transactions you are unable to process because of returned items. With respect to any item that I transmit to you for remote deposit that you credit to my Account, in the event such item is dishonored, I authorize you to debit the amount of such item from the Account.

Cooperation with Investigations. I agree to cooperate with you in the review or investigation of any transactions, poor quality transmissions or claims, including, without limitation, by providing, upon request and without further cost, any originals or copies of Items in my possession and my records relating to Items and transmissions.

Email Address. I agree to notify you immediately if I change my email address, as this is the email address where you will send me notification of receipt of remote deposit items or communicate to you regarding any remote deposit items, if necessary.

Unavailability of Services. I understand and agree that the Services may at times be temporarily unavailable due to the Financial Institution’s system maintenance or technical difficulties including those of the Internet service provider, cellular service provider and Internet software. In the event that the Services are unavailable, I acknowledge that I can deposit an original check at your branches or by mailing the original check to you at First Coast Community Credit Union, 306 S. Palm Avenue, Palatka, Florida 32177. It is my sole responsibility to verify that items deposited using the Services have been received and accepted for deposit by you. However, you will email notification of items that are rejected by the next business day following rejection.

Funds Availability. I understand and agree that, if an Image I transmit through the Services is received and accepted before 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on a business day that you are open, you consider that day to be the day of my deposit. Otherwise, you will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day you are open. I agree, however, that items transmitted through the Services are not subject to the funds availability requirements set forth in the “Funds Availability Policy and Disclosure” section of The First Coast Community Credit Union All About Your Accounts Disclosure or Regulation CC of the Federal Reserve Board. I understand, nevertheless, you will generally make the first $225 of a day’s total deposits available by the first (1st) business day after the day of my deposit and the remainder available by the second (2nd) business day after the day of your deposit. I acknowledge and agree you reserve the right to delay availability up to 60 days from the date you receive payment for items transmitted through the Services.

SPECIAL ENDORSEMENT STANDARDS
The Federal Law regarding funds availability requires the Financial Institution’s endorsement area on the back of a check be kept clear or unobstructed. This rule is designed to prevent unnecessary delays in processing your deposits as well as to promote speedier returns of dishonored checks. I acknowledge only the 1-1/2 inch space from the “trailing edge” (the left edge of the check when it is facing you) can be used by me for endorsements or any other markings.

You will not be responsible for any damages incurred in the event I deposit an item that is subsequently returned unpaid by the paying bank and that return is “late” due to markings on the check caused by me or a prior endorser on the back of the check.

In the event that I draw a check on my Checking or Loan Account with you, I am responsible for any delay or misrouting of the check caused by markings placed on the check by me that obscure any depository endorsements placed by you or your agent and I agree to hold you harmless and indemnify you from any liability due to such delay or misrouting.

Internal Controls and Audit.
DepositFirst deposit limits may change at any time without any prior notification. First Coast Community Credit Union reserves the right to revoke this service, reject or adjust any deposits upon submission of the scanned items.

Accountholder’s Warranties. I make the following warranties and representations with respect to each image of an original check I transmit to you utilizing the Services:

  1. Each image of a check transmitted to you is a true and accurate rendition of the front and back of the original check, without any alteration, and the drawer of the check has no defense against payment of the check.
  2. The amount, date, the payee, signature(s), and endorsement(s) on the original check are legible, genuine, and accurate.

For any image which I have transmitted, I shall be responsible for preventing the transmission of another image of the item or presentment of the item by any other means. I agree to retain the Item for at least 90 calendar days from the date of the image transmission and, during such 90 day period, securely store the item and deliver any original Item to you upon your demand. I agree that, upon expiration of such 90 day period, I will destroy any item of which I have transmitted an image or otherwise render it incapable of transmission or presentment.

Securing Images on Mobile Devices. When using DepositFirst, I understand that check images captured using my mobile device are stored on the device only until the associated deposit has been successfully submitted.

In the event that I am unable to promptly complete my deposit, I agree to ensure that my mobile device remains securely in my possession until the deposit has been completed or to delete the associated images from the application.

In Case of Errors. In the event that I believe there has been an error with respect to any original check or image thereof transmitted to you for deposit or a breach of this Agreement, I will immediately contact you regarding such error or breach as set forth below.

Q:  Is my DepositFirst deposit subject to a hold?

A:  Generally, deposits are made available after the 1st business day. However, in some cases a hold may apply.  You will receive an email notification of a hold placed on funds deposited through DepositFirst.

Q:  Why is my balance not reflecting my recent DepositFirst?

A:  In some cases, your DepositFirst will be held for review and not immediately posted to your share. During the DepositFirst session, you will be notified if your deposit was immediately posted or held for review. The review process should take no longer than one business day. Once the DepositFirst has been reviewed, you will receive an email notification that the funds are in your account, or that the deposit was rejected, adjusted, or placed on hold.

Troubleshooting Tips

Steps to capture the check images:

  • After entering the dollar amount of the check, tap “Capture Check Front” to enable the camera.
  • After successfully capturing the front image, wait for “Capture Check Back” to appear, and then tap it to enable the camera.
  • If the camera does not focus properly on the image, close the camera window and click “Capture Check Front” or “Capture Check Back” to enable the camera again.

What to do if the check image is not accepted:

  • Ensure the numbers printed on the bottom of the check (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition MICR) line are clear and readable.
  • Check for any stray writing or other markings in the MICR line that could prevent DepositFirst from clearly reading the numbers.
  • Ensure that the MICR line was not cropped out, which would prevent DepositFirst from clearly reading the numbers.
  • Use a dark background, clear of shadows, to take the picture of the check.

DepositFirst may take up to one business day to post to your account. First Coast CCU hold policies apply. Please refer to your Membership Booklet for First Coast CCU’s Funds Availability Policy Disclosure. You will be notified by email if your DepositFirst has been accepted, rejected, or placed on hold.
