fully liable for all payments made by such person until you have notified us
that you have terminated the authority granted to such person and have given
us a reasonable period of time to act upon such notice. We may require that

Information") as we may request from time to time, in order to ensure
proper payment to each of your designated payees. This information may
include the name, address and phone number of the payee and your Payee
Account number. You agree that we may obtain information regarding your
Payee Accounts in order to facilitate proper handling and crediting of your
payments and you authorize your payees to release such information to us.
You can enter your Payee Information, as well as additions, deletions and
modifications to Payee Information via an Internet connection to the Bill
Payer Web Site.
- Scheduling Bill Payments.
To electronically schedule a payment, follow the simple instructions in the
Online Help file. Payments may range in amounts up to Ninety-nine Thousand
Nine Hundred Ninety-nine Dollars ($99,999.00). When you schedule a bill
payment, you authorize us to withdraw the amount of your payment from your
Designated Bill Paying Account.
- Processing/Delivery of Your Bill Payments.
You may schedule payments to be processed on the day that you schedule a
bill payment, on a future date, on the same date each month, or by any of
the available schedule methods, subject to the restrictions in this
Agreement. We deduct the amount of your payment from your Designated Bill
Paying Account on the date that you scheduled the payment to be processed
("Account Debit Date"). Although you may schedule bill payments by
using the Service twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, payments can
be processed only on Business Days, subject to system availability. If the,
Account Debit Date falls on a weekend or holiday, your payment will be
processed on the previous Business Day. We may refuse to process your
payment if sufficient funds, including funds available under any overdraft
plan, are not available in your Designated Bill Paying Account on the
Account Debit Date. When scheduling a new payee, please schedule your first
(1st) payment to such payee at least ten (10) business days prior
to the date your payment is due, excluding any applicable grace periods (the
"Due Date"). After your initial payment to a respective payee, you
must instruct us to process subsequent payments at least five (5) Business
Days prior to the Due Date. We are not responsible for any loss you may
incur as a result of your failure to schedule a payment to be processed in
accordance with this Agreement. Once you schedule a payment, the Account
Debit Date will automatically be displayed on your computer screen.
- How Bill Payments are Made.
We may remit your payments by mailing your payee a paper check, by
electronic funds transfer, or by other means. We send all checks through the
United States
mail. We are not
responsible for postal delays or processing delays by the payees.
Occasionally, a payee chooses not to participate in the service, or may be
unable to process payments in a timely manner. In such cases, we may decline
to make future payments to these payees, in which case we will send you a
notice regarding the same.
- Same Day Bill Payments.
You may schedule a bill payment to be processed on the same day that you
scheduled the payment if we receive instructions before
5:00 a.m.
Eastern Standard Time
,
USA
, on a Business Day
("Same Day Payment").
- Future Bill Payments.
You may schedule a payment to be processed on any future Business Day within
one (1) year from the date you scheduled the payment ("Future
Payment").
- Recurring Bill Payments.
You may schedule payments to be automatically processed in a fixed amount on
the same date every month, or by any of the other available payment methods
(a "Recurring Payment"). The date on which a Recurring Payment is
scheduled to be processed is referred to below as the "Recurring
Payment Date." If a Recurring Payment Date is a day which does not
exist in a certain month, the payment will be processed on the last Business
Day of the month. For example, if you schedule a payment for the 31st
of each month, your payment for the month of April will be processed on or
before the 30th of April. If the Recurring Payment Date falls on a day other
than a Business Day in any month, your payment will be processed the prior
Business Day. For example, if you schedule a Recurring Payment to be
processed on the fifth (5th) of each month, and August 5th is a
Saturday, your payment for August will be processed on August 4th.
- Guarantee for Bill Payments.
We will reimburse you for any late payment fees or penalties you are
charged, up to a maximum of $50.00 per scheduled payment, as a result of our
failure to deliver a payment made to a business by the scheduled Due Date if
you meet each of the following obligations:
(a)
You must schedule the payment in accordance with this Agreement.
(b)
You must provide us with the correct payee name, address, Due Date,
account information and the correct payment amount. We shall not be liable for
fees assessed as a result of your failure to schedule payment of the sufficient
amount due to a payee.
(c)
Your Designated Bill Paying Account, including any overdraft protection,
must contain sufficient funds to complete the payment or transfer on the Account
Debit Date.
(d)
The payment must be made to a business. We will not reimburse any late
payment fees assessed to you by individuals.
(e)
The late payment fee or penalty or the method of calculation must be
published by the payee prior to the Due Date.

Internet service provider must be functioning properly.
- Stopping or Modifying Bill Payments.
You may modify or cancel the payment amount and the Account Debit Date of
any scheduled payments via the web site at any time prior to 5:00 a.m.
Eastern Time, USA, on the Account Debit Date.
- Reviewing Payments.
Records of past payments and payments scheduled for the future are stored at
this Bill Payer Web Site. The number of records that can be stored depends
on the amount of the available space on the system.
- Incomplete Payments.
If we remit your payment to a payee by mailing your payee a check, and the
check has not been presented for payment within our payment cut-off period,
we will investigate the status of the check. If the payee cannot be reached,
or the payment is to an individual and the check has not been presented for
payment ninety (90) days after the Account Debit Date, we may place a stop
payment order on the check and credit your account accordingly.

be disclosed to you in a separate disclosure by the Credit Union. Any
changes to such fees will be made in accordance with Credit Union policy.
- Termination. You may terminate your use of the Service at
any time by contacting your Credit Union. You must notify us at least ten
(10) days prior to the date on which you wish to have your Service
terminated. If you have scheduled payments with an Account Debit Date within
this ten-day period, you must separately cancel those payments pursuant to
paragraph 15 of this Agreement. If we have not completed processing your
termination request and you have not otherwise cancelled a payment, you will
be responsible for payments with Account Debit Dates during the ten (10)
days following our receipt of your written notice of termination. Your
notice of termination will be confirmed by mail. Subject to applicable law,
we may terminate your use of the Service, in whole or in part, at any time
without notice if Credit Union notifies us that it has not received the
required fee, if any, when due to Credit Union, if you do not comply with
the terms of this Agreement, or the agreements governing your Accounts, or
if your Designated Bill Account or Billing Account is not maintained in good
standing, and no other Designated Bill Paying Account and Billing Account
has been designated. We may also terminate your use of the Service for any
other reason by giving you thirty (30) days notice. Termination will not
affect your liability or obligation under this Agreement for transactions
that we have processed on your behalf. If you would like to designate a
different Account for service charge deductions, you must notify the Credit
Union.

Service twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, except during

your User ID and Password has been lost or
stolen, and you tell us within two (2) Business Days after you learn of the

and Password without your permission.

someone from using your User ID and Password had we known of the theft, you
could be liable for the loss up to $500.00.
