Web-24 SERVICE:

ACCOUNT ACCESS

If we approve your application for Web-24, you may use your personal computer to access your accounts. You must use your personal identification number ("PIN")/Password along with your user name to access your accounts. You must maintain an active checking account with Summit FCU.  You will need a personal computer with a modem and access to the Internet in order to use Web-24. You are responsible for the installation and maintenance of your computer. You will have access to this system from up to three discrete computers that are registered with our system.  The Credit Union is not responsible for any errors or failures involving any telephone service, Internet service, or for the software or hardware of your computer.

Review account balance for any of your checking, savings, and loan accounts;

Review transaction history for any of your checking, savings, and loan accounts;

Make transfers between any of your checking and savings accounts;

Transactions involving your deposit accounts will be subject to the terms and conditions of your account agreement as applicable.

SERVICE LIMITATIONS

 The following limitations on Web-24   transactions may apply in using the services listed above:

1.) TRANSFERS. You may make funds transfers to other Summit Federal Credit Union accounts of yours as often as you like. However, Federal regulations limit pre-authorized transfers from your regular share account. During any given month, you may not make more than six withdrawals or transfers to another Credit Union account of yours or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer. This includes transfers by phone, fax, wire, cable, overdraft transfers to checking, and Internet instruction.

The Credit Union will not be required to complete a withdrawal or transfer from your share accounts if you do not have enough money in the designated account to cover the transaction. You agree not to use
Web-24   to initiate a transaction that would cause the balance in your designated share account to go below the required minimum balance. We will not be required to complete such a transaction, but if we do so, you agree to pay us the excess amount or improperly withdrawn or transferred amount and any overdrawn account fees resulting from such transactions, immediately upon our request. We will also decline to complete your Web-24 transactions if we have canceled your access to Web-24 or we can not complete the transaction for security reasons.

2.) ACCOUNT INFORMATION. The account balance and transaction history information may be limited to recent account information involving your accounts. Also, the availability of funds for transfer or withdrawal may be limited due to processing time and our Funds Availability Policy.

3.) E-MAIL. The Credit Union may not immediately receive E-mail communications that you send and the Credit Union will not take action until we actually receive your message and have a reasonable opportunity to act. Requests for funds transfer as well as the transmittal of account information should not be communicated to the Credit Union through the use of E-mail. If you need to contact the Credit Union immediately regarding an unauthorized transaction or stop payment request, you may call the Credit Union at 330-376-3626.

PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER "PIN"/PASSWORD SECURITY

The PIN/Password issued to you for initial access to Web-24 is for security purposes. You should change your PIN/Password for security reasons the first time you use the service. Your PIN/Password is confidential and should not be disclosed to third parties or recorded. You agree to accept responsibility for protecting the integrity of your PIN/Password. You agree not to disclose or otherwise make your PIN/Password known to anyone not authorized to sign on your accounts. Granting access to your account through use of Web-24 to any non-owner will make you financially liable for all access, losses, or misuse of your account (s) until reported to us. You also agree that we may revoke your Web-24 access at any time without notice to you.  Tell us at once if you believe your PIN/Password has been lost or stolen.

FEES FOR
Web-24 SERVICE

There may be certain charges for services available in Web-24 as set forth on the Credit Union’s Fee Schedule. These fees may change from time to time as determined necessary by the Credit Union Board of Directors. We will notify you of any changes as required by law. There is currently no monthly charge for unlimited Web-24 service per account per month. If a fee is instituted it will be automatically deducted from your checking account at the end of each month and you will be notified 30 days ahead of time of implementation of such fees. If funds are not available in your checking account to pay the fee it will be deducted from your savings account.  To obtain a Rate and Fee Schedule, visit either Summit FCU branch or call SFCU at (330) 376-3626.

There will be a monthly account statement available for each month in which you initiate electronic transactions.  No other receipts will be mailed.  You agree by accessing your account through WEB-24 to receive all Summit FCU account statements through WEB-24/E-mail.  By applying to use and accepting the terms of this Agreement, Summit FCU will not mail statements to you through the U.S. Mail, they will only be received by E-mail until such time as WEB-24 access is revoked by you or Summit FCU. You will have access to an account statement at least quarterly if there is no electronic transaction activity on your account.

 

CREDIT UNION’S LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO MAKE TRANSFERS

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 and the instructions you transmit, we will be liable for any returned check fees resulting from our failure to perform the transaction.  However, the Credit Union will not be liable:

If, through no fault of ours, you do not have adequate funds in your account to complete a transaction or if your account is closed.

If you used the wrong PIN/password or you have not properly followed any applicable computer, Internet access, or Credit Union user instructions for making transfers or payments.

If your computer fails or malfunctions or
Web-24 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, postal strikes, equipment or power failure) prevent completion of the transaction.

If the funds in the account are subject to an administrative hold, legal process, or other claim.

If you have not given the Credit Union complete, correct, and current instructions so the Credit Union can process the transfer or payment.

If the error was caused by a system beyond the Credit Union’s control, such as your Internet Service Provider.

If there are other exceptions as designated by the Credit Union from time to time.

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:

1.) Where it is necessary for completing transfers, or

2.) In order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant, or

3.) In order to comply with government agency or court orders, or

4.) To our affiliates or for purposes of offering or providing you other products or services, or

5.) If you give us your written permission.

IN CASE OF ERRORS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR ELECTRONIC TRANSFERS

Call us at 330-376-3626 or write;

Summit Federal Credit Union, P O Box 1460, Akron, Ohio 44309 or email us at:

postmaster@summitfcu.com

 

As soon as you can, if you think your statement is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after the date of the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.

1.) Tell us your name and account number.

2.) Describe the error or 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 (20 business days if your question or complaint involves a transaction to or from an account opened within the last 30 days) after we hear from you and correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 business days (90 business days if your question or complaint involves a transaction to or from an account opened within the last 30 days) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days if your question or complaint involves a transaction to or from an account opened within the last 30 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 we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.

If we decide 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 documents that we used in our investigation.  The Credit Union may revoke any provisional credit provided to you if we find an error did not occur.

 If your alleged error or question relates to a transfer that resulted in an advance on your Home Equity Line of Credit, after we hear from you, we cannot try to collect any advance on your account’s Home Equity Line of Credit you question, or report you as delinquent.

We can continue to bill you for the amount you question, including finance charges, and we can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.  You do not have to pay any questioned advance on your account’s Home Equity Line of Credit while we are investigating, but you are still obligated to pay the advances that are not in question.  If we find that we made a mistake, you will not have to pay any finance charges related to the questioned advance (s).

If we didn’t make a mistake, you may have to pay finance charges, and you will have to make up any missed payments on the questioned advance (s).  In either case, we will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date that it is due.  If you fail to pay the amount that we think you owe, we may report you as delinquent.

However, if our explanation does not satisfy you and you write to us within ten(10) days telling us that you still refuse to pay, we must tell anyone we report you to that you have a question about your bill.  And, we must tell you the name of anyone we reported you to.  We must inform anyone we've reported you to, the results of any disputed matter once it has been settled.


STOP PAYMENTS

The transactions you perform on Web-24 are "real time" transactions and cannot be canceled except by performing corresponding reverse transactions. If you transfer money into a third party account, transfer money into your club accounts, or make payments on your loan accounts, you will not be able to reverse those transactions.

If you have arranged with the Credit Union in advance to make regular periodic payments out of your account, you can stop any of those payments by following these procedures:

1.) Call or write the Credit Union at the telephone number or address set forth above in time for it to be received three (3) or more business days before the payment is scheduled to be made.

2.) If you call, the Credit Union may require you to put your request in writing so that it reaches the Credit Union within 14 days after you call.

If you order us to stop one of these payments three (3) business days or more before the transaction is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for any returned check fees resulting from our failure to perform the transaction.

"Due Date" is the date reflected on the Member’s Payee statement for which the payment is due. It is not the late date or grace period. "Scheduled Payment" is a payment that has been scheduled through the Service but has not begun processing.

 B.  BILL PAYMENT SCHEDULING:

 Transactions begin processing Five (5) Business Days prior to the Member’s Scheduled Payment Date. Therefore, the application will not permit the Member to select a Scheduled Payment Date less than Five (5) Business Days from the current date. When scheduling payments the Member must select a Scheduled Payment Date that is no later than the actual Due Date reflected on the Member’s Payee statement unless the Due Date falls on a non-Business Day. If the actual Due Date falls on a non-Business Day, the Member must select a Scheduled Payment Date that is at least one (1) Business Day before the actual Due Date. Scheduled Payment Dates should be prior to any late date or grace period.

 C.  THE SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT:

 Due to circumstances beyond the control of the Service, particularly delays in handling and posting payments by Payees or financial institutions, some transactions may take longer to be credited to Member account. The Service will bear responsibility for any late payment related charges up to $50.00 should a payment post after its Due Date as long as the payment was scheduled in accordance with the guidelines described under "Bill Payment Scheduling" in this Agreement.

 Transaction limitations - The Service will not process any payments less than $1.00 or greater than $2,000. The Member will be assigned a transactional limit, a daily limit and a weekly limit at enrollment based on parameters associated with the Member credit history. The Member agrees to accept the limits set by the Service. We reserve the right to limit the amount the Member may have debited from or credited to the Member Payment Account on any given day and/or week. Additionally, the Service reserves the right to limit the Member’s use of this functionality by imposing limits, hold times, or other measures should we believe that suspicious activity has occurred or may occur. The Member authorizes the Service to check the Member’s credit history at enrollment and to obtain follow-up credit reports on the Member. Information obtained will be used by the Service to verify information the Member provided to the Service and to set limits associated with the Member’s use of the Service. The Service reserves the right to verify any of the information that the Member provides.

 The Service shall have the right to terminate the Member’s use of the Service, reject or reverse any transactions the Member initiates, and/or restrict or condition the Member’s right to send or receive money at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to:

 A. Excessive use;

B. Using the Service (directly or indirectly) for any unlawful purpose; an/or

C Tampering, hacking, modifying or otherwise attempting to corrupt the security or functionality of the Service.

  D.  PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION AND PAYMENT REMITTANCE:

 By providing the Service with names and account information of Payees to whom the Member wishes to direct payments, the Member authorizes the Service to follow the Payment Instructions that it receives through the payment system. In order to process payments more efficiently and effectively, the Service may edit or alter payment data or data formats in accordance with Payee directives. When the Service receives a Payment Instruction, the Member authorizes the Service to debit the Member’s Payment Account and remit funds on the Member’s behalf so that the funds arrive as close as reasonably possible to the Scheduled Payment Date designated by the Member. The Member also authorizes the Service to credit the Member’s Payment Account for payments returned to the Service by the United States Postal Service or Payee, or payments remitted to the Member on behalf of another authorized user of the Service. The Service will use its best efforts to make all of the Member’s payments properly. However, the Service shall incur no liability and any Service Guarantee shall be void if the Service is unable to complete any payments initiated by the Member because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

If, through no fault of the Service, the Member’s Payment Account does not contain sufficient funds to complete the transaction or the transaction would exceed the credit limit of the Member’s overdraft account;

 The payment-processing center is not working properly and the Member knows or has been advised by the Service about the malfunction before the Member executes the transaction; The Member have not provided the Service with the correct Payment Account information, or the correct name, address, phone number, or account information for the Payee; and/or, Circumstances beyond control of the Service (such as, but not limited to, fire, flood, or interference from an outside force) prevent the proper execution of the transaction and the Service has taken reasonable precautions to avoid those circumstances.

 Provided none of the foregoing exceptions are applicable, if the Service causes an incorrect amount of funds to be removed from the Member’s Payment Account or causes funds from the Member’s Payment Account to be directed to a Payee which does not comply with the Member’s Payment Instructions, the Service shall be responsible for returning the improperly transferred funds to the Member’s Payment Account, and for directing to the proper Payee any previously misdirected transactions, and, if applicable, for any late payment related charges.

 E.  PAYMENT METHODS:

The Service reserves the right to select the method in which to remit funds on the Member’s behalf to the Member’s Payee. These payment methods may include, but may not be limited to, an electronic payment, an electronic to check payment, or a laser draft payment.

F. Member Information

 The Member agrees to provide true and accurate enrollment information to the Service, and to maintain and promptly update the Member’s information as applicable. The Member agrees not to impersonate any person or use a name that the Member is not authorized to use.

 The Member must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to enroll in the Service. The Member must be a resident of the United States or its possessions, and use the Service for individual purposes only, not on behalf of any business, corporation, proprietorship or other entity. The Member must have a valid e-mail address and access to the Internet. The Member must be a legal owner of the Summit FCU Member Account registered for the Service. We reserve the right to limit the number of memberships the Member has with the Service.

 G.  PAYMENT CANCELLATION REQUESTS:

 The Member may cancel or edit any Scheduled Payment (including recurring payments) by following the directions within the application. There is no charge for canceling or editing a Scheduled Payment. Once the Service has begun processing a payment it cannot be cancelled or edited, therefore a stop payment request must be submitted.

 H.  STOP PAYMENT REQUESTS:

The Service's ability to process a stop payment request will depend on the payment method and whether or not a check has cleared. The Service may also not have a reasonable opportunity to act on any stop payment request after a payment has been processed. If the Member desires to stop any payment that has already been processed, the Member must contact Member Service. Although the Service will make every effort to accommodate the Member’s request, the Service will have no liability for failing to do so. The Service may also require the Member to present the Member’s request in writing within fourteen (14) days. The charge for each stop payment request will be the current charge for such service as set out in the applicable fee schedule.

 I.  PROHIBITED PAYMENTS:

 Payments to Payees outside of the United States or its territories are prohibited through the Service.

 J.  EXCEPTION PAYMENTS:

 Tax payments and court ordered payments might be scheduled through the Service; however, such payments are discouraged and must be scheduled at the Member’s own risk. In no event shall the Service be liable for any claims or damages resulting from the Member’s scheduling of these types of payments. The Service Guarantee as it applies to any late payment related changes is void when these types of payments are scheduled and/or processed by the Service. The Service has no obligation to research or resolve any claim resulting from an exception payment. All research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted or misdirected payments will be the sole responsibility of the Member and not of the Service.

 K.  EXCLUSIONS OF WARRANTIES:

 THE SERVICE AND RELATED DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

The Member is responsible for all payments the Member authorize using the Service. If the Member permits other persons to use the Service or the Member’s password or other means to access the Member’s account, the Members are responsible for any transactions they authorize. If the Member believes that the Member’s password or other means to access the Member’s account has been lost or stolen or that someone may attempt to use the Service without the Member’s consent or has transferred money without the Member’s permission, the Member must notify the Service at once by calling 1-330-376-3626 during member service hours

 M.  THE MEMBER’S LIABILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS:

If the Member tells the Service within two (2) Business Days after the Member discovers the Member’s password or other means to access the Member’s account has been lost or stolen, the Member’s liability is no more than $50.00 should someone access the Member’s account without the Member’s permission. If the Member does not tell us within two (2) Business Days after the Member learns of such loss or theft, and we can prove that we could have prevented the unauthorized use of the Member’s password or other means to access the Member’s account if the Member had told us, the Member could be liable for as much as $500.00. If the Member’s monthly financial institution statement contains transfers that the Member did not authorize, the Member must tell us at once. If the Member does not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was sent to the Member, the Member may lose any amount transferred without the Member’s authorization after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money had the Member told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) prevented the Member from telling us, we may extend the period.

 N.  ERRORS AND QUESTIONS:

 In case of errors or questions about the Member’s transactions, the Member should as soon as possible notify us via one of the following:

 Telephone us at 1-330-376-3626 during member service hours; Contact us by using the application's e-messaging feature; and/or, Write us at:

The Member must:

 Tell us the Member’s name and Service account number; describe the error or the transaction in question, and explain as clearly as possible why the Member believes it is an error or why the Member needs more information; and, tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.

If the Member tells us verbally, we may require that the Member send the Member’s complaint in writing within ten (10) Business Days after the Member’s verbal notification. We will tell the Member the results of our investigation within ten (10) Business Days after we hear from the Member, and will correct any error promptly. However, if we require more time to confirm the nature of the Member’s complaint or question, we reserve the right to take up to forty-five (45) days to complete our investigation. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit the Member’s Payment Account within ten (10) Business Days for the amount the Member thinks is in error. If we ask the Member to submit the Member’s complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) Business Days, we may not provisionally credit the Member’s Payment Account. If it is determined there was no error we will mail the Member a written explanation within three (3) Business Days after completion of our investigation. The Member may ask for copies of documents used in our investigation. The Service may revoke any provisional credit provided to the Member if we find an error did not occur.

O.  DISCLOSURE OF ACCOUNT INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES:

 It is our general policy to treat the Member’s account information as confidential. However, we will disclose information to third parties about the Member’s account or the transactions the Member makes ONLY in the following situations:

Where it is necessary for activating additional services;

In order to verify the existence and condition of the Member’s account to a third party, such as a credit bureau or Payee;

To a consumer reporting agency for research purposes only;

In order to comply with a governmental agency or court orders; or,

If the Member gives us written permission.

 P.  SERVICE FEES AND ADDITIONAL CHARGES:

 Any applicable fees will be charged regardless of whether the Service was used during the billing cycle. There may be a charge for additional transactions and other optional services. The Member agrees to pay such charges and authorizes the Service to deduct the calculated amount from the Member’s designated Billing Account for these amounts and any additional charges that may be incurred by the Member. Any financial fees associated with the Member’s standard deposit accounts will continue to apply. The Member is responsible for any and all telephone access fees and/or Internet service fees that may be assessed by the Member’s telephone and/or Internet service provider.

 Q.  FAILED OR RETURNED TRANSACTIONS:

 In using the Service, the Members are requesting the Service to make payments for the Member from the Member’s Payment Account. If we are unable to complete the transaction for any reason associated with the Member’s Payment Account (for example, there are insufficient funds in the Member’s Payment Account to cover the transaction), the transaction will not be completed. In some instances, the Member will receive a return notice from the Service. In such a case, the Member agrees that:

 The Member will reimburse the Service immediately upon demand the transaction amount that has been returned to the Service;

For any amount not reimbursed to the Service within fifteen (15) days of the initial notification, a late charge equal to 1.5% monthly interest or the legal maximum, whichever rate is lower, for any unpaid amounts may be imposed;

 R.  ALTERATIONS AND AMENDMENTS:

 This Agreement, applicable fees and service charges may be altered or amended by the Service from time to time. In such event, the Service shall provide notice to the Member. Any use of the Service after the Service provides the Member a notice of change will constitute the Member’s agreement to such change(s). Further, the Service may, from time to time, revise or update the applications, services, and/or related material, which may render all such prior versions obsolete. Consequently, the Service reserves the right to terminate this Agreement as to all such prior versions of the applications, services, and/or related material and limit access to only the Service's more recent revisions and updates.

Any changes in the Member’s Payment Account should also be made in accordance with the procedures outlined within the application's Help files. All changes made are effective immediately for scheduled and future payments paid from the updated Payment Account information.

 Any payment(s) the Service has already processed before the requested cancellation date will be completed by the Service. All Scheduled Payments including recurring payments will not be processed once the Service is cancelled. The Service may terminate or suspend Service to the Member at any time. Neither termination nor suspension shall affect the Member’s liability or obligations under this Agreement.

 U.  PAYEE LIMITATION:

The Service reserves the right to refuse to pay any Payee to whom the Member may direct a payment. The Service will notify the Member promptly if it decides to refuse to pay a Payee designated by the Member. This notification is not required if the Member attempts to make a prohibited payment or an exception payment under this Agreement.

 V.  RETURNED PAYMENTS:

 In using the Service, the Member understands that Payees and/or the United States Postal Service may return payments to the Service for various reasons such as, but not limited to, Payee's forwarding address expired; Payee account number is not valid; Payee is unable to locate account; or Payee account is paid in full. The Service will use its best efforts to research and correct the returned payment and return it to the Member’s Payee, or void the payment and credit the Member’s Payment Account. The Member may receive notification from the Service.

 W.  INFORMATION AUTHORIZATION:

The Member’s enrollment in the Service may not be fulfilled if the Service cannot verify the Member’s identity or other necessary information. Through the Member’s enrollment in the Service, the Member agrees that the Service reserves the right to request a review of the Member’s credit rating at its own expense through an authorized bureau. In addition, the Member agrees that the Service reserves the right to obtain financial information regarding the Member’s account from a Payee or other financial institution(s) (for example, to resolve payment posting problems or for verification).

 X.  DISPUTES:

 In the event of a dispute regarding the Service, the Member and the Service agree to resolve the dispute by looking to this Agreement. The Member agrees that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between the Member and the Service which supersedes any proposal or prior agreement, oral or written, and any other communications between the Member and the Service relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. If there is a conflict between what an employee of the Credit Union says and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will prevail.

Y.  ASSIGNMENT:

 The Member may not assign this Agreement to any other party. The Service may assign this Agreement to any future, directly or indirectly, affiliated company. The Service may also assign or delegate certain of its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement to independent contractors or other third parties.

 Z.  NO WAIVER:

 The Service shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the Service. No delay or omission on the part of the Service in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any rights or remedies on future occasions.

 AA.  CAPTIONS:

 The captions of sections hereof are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

 BB.  GOVERNING LAW:

 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions.

 THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE THE SERVICE'S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND THE MEMBER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SERVICE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS (EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE INSTALLATION, USE, OR MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE, AND/OR THE SERVICE.

AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF ITS TERMS.
