Online Banking (Internet) Agreement1. The Service. In consideration of the Online Banking services ("Services") to be provided by The First National Bank of Gordon ("BANK"), as described from time to time in information distributed by BANK to its customers. In the agreement, "Customer" refers to the person(s) subscribing to or using the Service. The Customer agrees as follows: You may use a Personal Computer ("PC") through an Internet connection to obtain account balances and transaction information. You may also use your PC to obtain statements on your accounts and to transfer money between your accounts. In addition, you may use your PC to electronically direct us to make payments from your account to third parties ("Payees") that you have selected to receive payment through the Service. You may make payments through the Service to any business professional, merchant, family member, or friend. The ("Account") means your designated bill payment checking account at BANK from which we make bill payments on your behalf pursuant to the Agreement. By subscribing to the Service or using the Service to make any payments to a third party, you agree to the terms of the Agreement. Your use of FNB Online Banking services to access your accounts does not change the agreement you already have with us on those accounts. When you use FNB Online Banking services to access an account, you do so under the terms and conditions we gave you in the agreement and disclosure for that account. PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY AND KEEP A COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS. 2. Your Merchant List. You may include all utility companies, merchants, financial institutions, insurance companies, individuals, etc. whom you wish to pay through First National Bank of Gordon Bill Payment. We reserve the right to decline to make payments to certain persons and entities. 3. Your Password. Each individual who has access to Online Banking, including each individual named on joint accounts, must designate a password and a user code. Your password must be a minimum of 6 characters, which must consist of at least one (1) letter and one (1) numeric character. The letters are case sensitive. For example, if you enter your password as 1234abc, you cannot use 1234ABC. It is recommended that you change your password periodically to enhance security. 4. Scheduling Payments. You may choose to add Bill Payment and use your PC to electronically schedule payments with the Service. Payments are posted against your balance available for withdrawal, as defined in the bank's Funds Availability Policy. 5. Delivery of Your Payments and Transfers. You may schedule payments to be initiated on the current business day, on a future date, or on the same date of each month, subject to the restrictions in the Agreement. Although you can enter payment information through the Service twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, payments can be initiated only on business days. Funds will be deducted from your Account on the business day on which a payment is to be "initiated." This date is referred to in this Agreement as the "Transaction Date." If you direct the initiation of a payment to occur on a day other than a business day, it will be initiated on the following business day. After funds are withdrawn from your Account, we may remit your payments by mailing your Payee a check, by electronic funds transfer, including ACH (Automated Clearing House) or by other means. Because of the time it takes to send your payment to them, your Payees generally will not receive payment on the Transaction Date. This applies regardless of whether the payment is a next-day payment, a future payment, or a recurring payment, as described below. Therefore, in order to provide sufficient time for payments to be received by your Payees, the Transaction Date should be prior to the date your payment is due, excluding any applicable grace periods (the "Due Date"). Payments and transfers must be scheduled by the normal cut-off time of 3:30 p.m. (MST/MDT) on any business day in order for the payment to be initiated for that business day. 6. Recurring Payments. Recurring payments are those made for the same amount and are made on a weekly, bi-monthly, monthly basis, etc. Once started, recurring payments will be made automatically until you tell us to stop or cancel the payment online and we have a reasonable opportunity to react. 7. Our Liability for Failure to Complete Transactions. 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 might be liable for some of your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable for instance:
8. Canceling Payment. You may use your PC to cancel a payment up to 11 a.m. (MST/MDT) on the business day your payment is scheduled to be initiated ("Transaction Date"). There is no fee for canceling a payment Online. Other requests must be made at least one (1) day prior to scheduled payment date. A payment that has been sent may be recalled for a fee of $25.00 per item, but the BANK will not guarantee the ability to recall an item. 9. Statements. All payments, transfers, and/or fees made with the Service will appear on your monthly Account statement. The Payee name, payment amount, and date of the payment will be shown for each payment made through the Service during that month. 10. Fees. Fees for Services shall be payable in accordance with a schedule of charges as established and amended by BANK from time to time. Charges shall be automatically deducted from customer’s Account, and BANK shall provide to Customer monthly notice of such debit(s) on your statement. 11. Equipment.
