• CONSUMER DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURES |
||||
| CONSUMER DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURES | ||||
| TERMS. In this agreement ‘you,’ ‘your,’ and ‘yours’ mean Depositor individually (jointly and severally if more than one). ‘We,’ ‘our,’ ‘ours,’ and ‘us’ mean MONROE BANK. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, a singular term includes the plural and vice versa, and a word of one gender includes the other. ‘Item’ is any check, draft, or order for the payment of money, oral or written, in electronic or other form. ‘Business day’ is any day we are open for carrying on substantially all of our banking business other than Saturday, Sunday, or Federal Reserve Bank holiday. ‘Such as’ means the terms that follow are merely examples and are not intended to limit the possibilities. ‘This agreement’ means this document and any of the following, periodically amended, that we give you: disclosures; such as Truth in Savings and electronic fund transfers; fee schedule(s); the signature card; and any agreement for banking services connected with this account. BINDING AGREEMENT. You have read this agreement and understand it is binding between you and us for a deposit account (‘the account’). MULTIPLE OWNERS. If there are multiple owners, each owner may do anything permitted with the account, such as: endorse items for deposit or collection, even if payable to another owner; pledge it as collateral for any obligation; move funds by check or other means; close it; authorize others to conduct transactions on it; and give instructions for transfers, stop payments, and all other matters relating to it. (No owner may cancel a stop payment entered by another owner.) Each owner appoints each other owner as attorney-in-fact to endorse and cash items. A notice sent to one owner is effective for all. You guarantee the signature of each owner. You will be responsible for any liability, such as an overdraft, a fee, or a refund to the government of a direct deposit, even though caused by another owner. Unless noted otherwise on the signature card, the account is owned jointly with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common. If one owner dies, we treat the survivor(s) as owner(s) of the full balance. If noted on the signature card that ownership is as tenants in common or without survivorship, we treat the survivor(s) and personal representative of the deceased as owners. Their shares will be equal unless we have agreed otherwise in writing. Only a married couple may own the account as tenants by the entirety, and only if noted on the signature card. If one spouse dies, we treat the survivor as sole owner. If the couple divorces, we treat them as owners jointly with right of survivorship. You will notify us immediately after you learn of the death or declaration of incompetence of any co-owner. ‘IN TRUST FOR’ TERMS. If the account is noted on the signature card as ‘ITF’ or ‘in trust for,’ you agree that at your death (or, if more than one owner, at the death of the last survivor) ownership passes to the designated beneficiary/beneficiaries. You have not given us notice of the existence nor terms of a legal and valid trust other than the ‘in trust for’ description on the signature card. P.O.D. TERMS. If the account is noted on the signature card as ‘P.O.D.’ or ‘pay-on-death,’ you agree that at your death (or, if more than one owner, at the death of the last survivor) ownership passes to the designated pay-on-death beneficiary/beneficiaries. No beneficiary will have any rights until all owners have died. If an owner pledges the account as collateral for an obligation, the pledge prevails over any rights of any beneficiary. If more than one beneficiary is designated they shall share equally unless otherwise noted on the account. If a beneficiary predeceases the account owner, his or her interest shall immediately terminate and the percentage share of the surviving beneficiaries shall be increased on a pro rata basis. UTMA ACCOUNTS. If the account is noted on the signature card as established under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA), you understand there can be only one custodian and one minor per account. No other parties are permitted. Your responsibility to us under this agreement will not be limited to the amount in the account. ACCOUNT TYPE. The account type is noted on the signature card and Truth in Savings disclosure. If a demand account, it will not earn interest. If a savings or NOW account, we reserve the right to require seven days’ written notice before any withdrawal. If a negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) account is owned by any entity not allowed by federal regulations to have such an account, we will convert the account into a checking or savings account. If it is a savings or money market account, you may make no more than six preauthorized withdrawals per month or statement cycle; no more than three of which may be by check, draft, or other order payable to third parties. If a Holiday Club account, we will send you a check for the balance or we will deposit the balance into an account you have with us in October each year unless otherwise directed. We have given you disclosures explaining applicable transaction limits, fees, interest rates, and balance requirements. You agree that our fees and charges need not be based upon the cost of providing the service or administering the event to which the fee or charge is associated, but may be based on other considerations such as the expense of providing account services, generally similar charges of other financial institutions with which we compete, revenues to the bank, and the deterrence of abuse of an account. SEVERABILITY. If the courts determine that any part of this agreement is illegal or unenforceable, you agree that the remainder will be enforced and the offending provision changed to make it enforceable. LAW, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE. The laws of Indiana govern this agreement. The courts of that state have jurisdiction of any dispute in connection with this agreement. You agree that venue will be proper in the courts in the county and city of our office where you signed or delivered this agreement. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. You waive your right to a jury trial in any dispute with us. Such disputes may be tried before a judge only. WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS. You agree that the transactions of each depositor of this bank arises from a unique relationship between the bank and its depositor such that damages that may arise as a result of a violation or alleged violation of this agreement or the laws and regulations governing this agreement are not the same for all depositors and therefore not appropriate for class action treatment. YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THIS BANK EITHER AS A MEMBER OF A PUTATIVE CLASS OR AS LEAD PLAINTIFF IN ANY DISPUTE AGAINST THE BANK. ARBITRATION. You or we may require that any controversy or claim relating to this agreement, or breach of it, be resolved through arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its commercial rules. Judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. CHANGES. We may change any term of this agreement by giving you notice as required by law. If the law does not require a particular type or period of notice, we can post the change in our lobby or other public area for five days before it takes effect. If you use the account after the effective date of a change, that indicates your acceptance of the change. ACCOUNT CLOSING. You or we may close the account at any time without cause. We may close it without notice to you if we reasonably believe it will prevent loss to us or you have violated this agreement. You will pay any fees and costs for closing the account, as well as any outstanding items. Our rights and your obligations survive any closing of the account or cancellation of this agreement. You will not claim we wrongfully dishonored items we return unpaid on or after the day the account was closed. NOTICES. We can send you communication at the last address you gave us in writing. You will send us communication at our address in this agreement. The postmark or postage meter date, except where this agreement requires that something be ‘actually received,’ determines when communication occurred. You will notify us immediately of any change in your name, address, telephone number, or taxpayer identification number. NO ASSIGNMENT. You understand that neither the account nor your rights under this agreement can be assigned without our written permission. Your successors and assigns are bound by this agreement. Any actual or purported assignment of the account remains subject to our right of setoff. EXPENSES. You will pay any expenses we incur in good faith related to this agreement, such as fees on items sent for collection, foreign exchange charges, and unreimbursed research and copying fees when someone requires records about our relationship, and attorneys’ fees we incur in good faith because of concerns about the account, whether or not litigation has begun, including such fees through trial and all appeals, plus court costs. You also agree to pay any expense that we incur, including attorneys’ fees in responding to any subpoena, writ, government agency or judicial order, search warrant, or other order which we may be required to respond to regarding your account or your relationship with us. INDEMNIFICATION. You will indemnify us against, and hold us harmless from, any and all losses, damages, costs, and attorney fees that we incur because of your failure to abide by any of the terms of this agreement. NO WAIVER. Failure to insist on your strict performance of any obligation under this agreement will not create any duty on our part to continue to do so. You will not claim that we waived our right to insist on proper performance. OUR RIGHTS. You agree that our rights under this agreement are cumulative, not exclusive. We may exercise any of them without giving up the right to exercise others. RECORDING. You give us permission to record your communications with us. If you authorize someone to do business with us on your behalf, such as by power of attorney, you will be responsible for obtaining their permission to our recording their communications with us. SETOFF. You grant us the right to apply the balance to payment of any debt that any owner of the account owes us, without notice including direct obligations, such as cashed items charged back, promissory notes and agreements (including this one), and indirect obligations, such as guarantees and endorsements. The right of setoff does not apply to this account if it is an IRA or other tax-deferred retirement account. You understand that we can pay items into overdraft, impose overdraft fees, and apply any later deposits (including direct deposits of Social Security or other government benefits) to those overdrafts or overdraft fees. LEGAL PROCESS. If any owner or authorized signer is ever involved in a legal proceeding, such as divorce, garnishment, levy, or attachment, you will not hold us responsible for any damage you suffer from our actions in good faith reliance on any order or other legal process. Any garnishment, levy, or attachment is subject to our right of setoff. If a bankruptcy or similar proceeding is filed by or against any owner, we can place an administrative hold on part or all of the balance while we seek to have the automatic stay lifted. NO ACTIVITY. You understand that if you do not generate any transactions for 1095 days, we may charge dormancy fees unless specifically forbidden by law. You understand that if the lack of activity continues for the period set by abandoned property law, we will pay the balance to the state. AUTHORITY. You will not grant anyone authority to conduct business with us on your behalf until we have reviewed the terms of authorization and have given you written acceptance. This includes authority such as power of attorney, bill-paying arrangement, or other method. You will not claim that we wrongfully dishonored items presented to us before we accepted the authorization. If you have not given us the proposed authorization for advance review, we may, in good faith, honor items and instructions from the person you authorized. You will not hold us responsible if someone you authorized to do business with us misapplies your money. You assume all risk of improper acts by such person. We can consider an authorization valid until we actually receive written revocation of it and have had reasonable time to review and act upon it. If we accept an authority, we may revoke our acceptance of that authority at any time at our discretion. TELEMARKETERS. Telemarketers and others trying to sell you goods or services may ask for information about your account, such as your account number, next unused check number, or our routing number. If you give any of that information to such a person, organization, or business, you agree that we may treat any debit to your account initiated by that entity as having been authorized by you. CHECKS. You will not write a postdated check without giving us written notice, describing the check with reasonable certainty, at least five business days before you write the check. If you do not give us notice, we can pay the check when it reaches us, regardless of the date. You will use only approved checks and deposit slips. You will not attempt to create a ‘substitute check’ for deposit into the account without obtaining our express written consent in advance. You will not write a check using ink of a color or type that is not legible when imaged or copied. You will not deposit any check that was written in such ink, or that has any other features that would prevent it from being imaged or copied clearly and completely. You will verify your name, address, telephone number, and the numbers in the magnetic ink character line across the bottom of the face of each document in each order of checks and deposit slips. If there is an error, you will not use the affected documents, but will notify us and the printer immediately. You will not hold us responsible for any amount beyond the replacement cost of the order (provided the checks were ordered through us). If we safekeep your cancelled checks and other items, we can destroy the originals and keep electronic or other images after a reasonable time has elapsed. We can destroy the images after a further reasonable time. Our sending you your statement or making it available will be the same for all purposes as though we had included the cancelled checks and other items with the statement. EXAMINATION OF ITEMS. You do not require us to comply with any restrictive legend on any item, such as, ‘void if not cashed within 90 days,’ ‘payment in full,’ or any other marking that is not one of the following: drawee bank name and location, payee name, endorser name, drawer signature, and the magnetic ink characters across the bottom front of the item. You will not hold us responsible for any item’s late return caused by an endorsement stamp or other marking outside the area allowed for it by law. You will not claim that we failed to exercise ordinary care because our procedures do not require sight examination of each item with an amount below a figure we set periodically. SIGNATURES TO COME. If you have asked us to create the account for multiple owners or authorized signers, we can limit use of the account until all have signed. LAWS, REGULATIONS. We are subject to extremely detailed laws and regulations. You will not hold us liable for anything we do or decline to do based on a good faith belief that it is required by law or regulation. Some laws allow parties to ‘contract out’ of the law’s provisions and establish their own rules. You intend this agreement to do that whenever a term of this agreement conflicts with such a law. You will abide by the rules of any clearinghouse or automated clearinghouse that handles any part of a transaction. LIABILITY LIMIT. You will not hold us responsible for loss caused by an event beyond our control, such as war, terrorism, riot, labor trouble, natural disaster, computer problem, loss of electric power, communications, or transport. If we do not process a transaction in accordance with the terms of this agreement, our maximum liability shall be the amount of the transaction. In no circumstances will we be responsible for consequential damages for any action that we take or fail to take in regard to the account. DEPOSITED ITEMS. You understand all deposits are subject to verification and correction. We can accept an item for deposit or collection only, refuse it, or return it. In receiving items, we are acting only as your agent. We have no responsibility beyond ordinary care. You will not hold us responsible for default or negligence of our correspondents or loss of items in transit. Each correspondent we use will be liable only for its own negligence. If we give you credit for an item, we can revoke it if the item is not paid. Items deposited by mail will not be considered received by us until we actually receive them. You will not hold us responsible for loss of any item until we have received it under this standard. If an item requiring endorsement is deposited without it, you authorize but do not require us to supply it. You will reimburse us for loss or expense we incur because of any missing endorsement, whether yours or another’s, on a deposited item. We do not have to notify you of any nonrecurring ACH credits or wire transfers to the account. FOREIGN ITEMS. If an item that is payable at a foreign bank or in a foreign currency is deposited, you will be responsible for all collection charges and exchange rate risk on it. You understand that we will not credit that kind of deposit until receiving the proceeds in United States currency. RETURNED ITEMS. We can charge for the amount of any deposited item that is returned unpaid. We can reprocess the item, but you do not require it. We can process a copy, electronic entry, or other evidence of the returned item. You waive presentment, notice of dishonor, and protest. ‘STALE’ ITEMS. We can pay an item presented to us more than six months after the date on the item, but you do not require it. If you do not want us to pay such an item, you must place a stop payment on it. STOP PAYMENTS. If you want us to stop payment on a check, you will tell us the check number, date, payee name, and exact amount. You understand that if either the check number or the amount is not exact, our check processing equipment may not catch the check in time; you will not hold us responsible. If you telephone your stop payment, you will confirm it in writing on our form within 14 days. We will have a reasonable time to act on any stop payment. You understand that a stop payment expires in six months. You must place a new stop payment if you do not want us to pay the check after the previous one expires. BANK STATEMENTS. You are responsible for promptly examining each check or photocopy and reconciling each statement that we send to you or otherwise make available to you. You must notify us immediately of any problem, such as forgery, unauthorized endorsement or debit, or alteration, that you find. If you do not notify us within a reasonable time from the date which we send or make available to you the earliest statement from which you found, or should have found, any such problems, you will be responsible for any loss that your notifying us could have prevented. CREDIT REPORTS. You authorize us to obtain reports about you periodically from organizations such as consumer reporting agencies, check reporting services, and other credit reporting entities, and to provide them information. INCOMPLETE ITEMS. If an authorized signer signs a check or authorizes any item that is not completed, you will not hold us responsible for paying it as completed by anyone unless we actually know it was completed in an unauthorized way. DISPUTED AUTHORITY. If anyone claims ownership over funds, and we have a good faith doubt about whether to recognize the claim, we can hold some or all of the balance until the claim is resolved. We can pay some or all of the balance into court in an interpleader or other action to determine ownership. You will not claim that we wrongfully dishonored items that were presented to us while such a dispute was pending. OTHER SERVICES. If you want services from us that are not covered by this agreement, you will sign an agreement with us for those services. CASHING YOUR CHECKS. Before we allow a person to cash an item, we can require identification, such as a driver’s license or passport. We can secure further identification by methods such as photography, fingerprinting, and other biometric or technological means. If the person does not provide or permit such identification, we can decline to cash the item and you will not claim that we wrongfully dishonored it. ORDER OF PAYMENT. While we may pay items in any order we choose, we will generally pay checks on your account first. Then we will pay electronic debits (ACH items), followed by ATM and Debit card transactions. To the extent possible, checks pay in check number order. All other items pay in small to large payment order. SIGNATURES. You authorize us to store and use signature card Information in any reasonable form we deem necessary, including any digitized signature capture process. If you use a facsimile signature or other form of signature, you agree you shall have the sole responsibility for maintaining security of the facsimile signature or device by which it is affixed and you shall bear the entire risk for unauthorized use thereof whether or not you are negligent. You agree that no facsimile signature we have been authorized to honor may be considered a forgery or an unauthorized signature, but that such facsimile signature shall be effective as your signature or endorsement whether or not you have been negligent. You further agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any and all loss, costs, damage, liability, or exposure (including reasonable attorney's fees) we or you may suffer or incur as a result of the unlawful use, unauthorized use, or misuse by any person of any such facsimile signature or the device by which it is affixed. If you use any form of facsimile signature device, you agree to deliver a sample to us if we request it. PREAUTHORIZED DRAFTS. Customer authorizes Bank to honor any items bearing customer's account number if customer has disclosed that account number to the payee or any representative, affiliate, or party associated with the payee, whether or not the item is signed by the customer. Customer further agrees that Bank may presume that authorization was obtained by the issuer of the item. For example, if customer voluntarily gives information about their account (such as the routing number and account number) to a party who is seeking to sell customer goods or services, and customer does not physically deliver a check to the party, any debit to the account initiated by the party to whom you gave the information is deemed authorized. MASTER DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. If your account is a checking account, it is a master deposit account which will consist of two subaccounts: a transaction account and a nontransaction account. The maintenance of the two subaccounts and the transfer between them as described below is for the purpose of improving our efficiency and will have no effect on your account or your ability to use it. The amount of interest you earn (if your account is interest-bearing), the amount of charges you incur (if any), and your monthly checking statement will not be affected. We will maintain separate information on each subaccount for regulatory purposes, but information reported to you will be consolidated. At the beginning of each month we will allocate the balance in your account between the two subaccounts based on an allocation formula which we may change from time to time. All checks, withdrawals, debits and other charges against your account will be presented against the funds in your transaction account. If additional funds are needed to cover your transactions, we will automatically transfer, without charge, available funds in your nontransaction subaccount to your transaction account. If excess funds accumulate in the transaction account, we may automatically transfer funds to the nontransaction subaccount. Federal regulations limit preauthorized transfers from your nontransaction account to six during a monthly statement period. Upon the sixth transfer from the nontransaction account to the transaction account during a monthly statement period, the entire balance in the nontransaction account will be transferred to the transaction subaccount for the remainder of the statement period. At all times, the combined collected balance in the two subaccounts will be available to pay items presented for payment. ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS. This agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code – Fund Transfers as adopted in the state of Indiana. If you originate a fund transfer for which Fedwire is used, and you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying number to make payment. We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named. (We) may accept on your behalf payments to your account which have been transmitted through one or more Automated Clearing House (ACH) and which are not subject to the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, and your rights and obligations with respect to such payments shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Indiana as provided by the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account. You agree to be bound by those ACH rules and all time frames pertaining to those rules. These rules provide, among other things, that credit given by us to you with respect to an automated clearing house credit entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for such entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive final settlement, you are hereby notified and agree that we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited to your Account in connection with such entry, and the party (the originator of the entry) making payment to you via such entry shall not be deemed to have paid you the amount of such entry. Under the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account, we are not required to give next day notice to you of receipt of an ACH item and we will not do so. However, we will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic statements we provide to you. |

| DEBIT CARD CARDHOLDER AGREEMENT | ||||
Thank you for being a Monroe Bank Debit Card user. The terms “Debit Card” and “Check Card” may be used interchangeably throughout this document. The cards permit you to conduct banking transactions at any automated teller machine (ATM) displaying the STAR or Cirrus marks, or at any Point-Of-Sale (POS) location accepting STAR or Visa Debit Cards. This agreement explains how you can use your Debit Card and it sets forth your rights and responsibilities. You will be bound by this agreement by your first use of your Debit Card after you receive this agreement. 1. This card and secret code number are the property of Monroe Bank. The Debit Card shall remain our property and shall be surrendered immediately to us upon our request. You cannot transfer your Debit Card to another person and we may cancel and retrieve your Debit Card at any time without notice to you.
FOR BUSINESS ACCOUNTS ONLY: 1. You agree to assist the Bank in the investigation and prosecution of claims for unauthorized transactions by completing the appropriate statements and reports reasonably requested by the Bank.

| CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM NOTICE | ||||
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver license or other identifying documents. |
||||
| DEPOSITED FUNDS AVAILABILITY | ||||
YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS. Our policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Once they are available, you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written. For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If you make a deposit before 5:00 PM on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 5:00 PM or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open. LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY. In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the first business day after the day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the fifth business day after the day of your deposit. The first $100 of your deposits, however, may be available on the first business day. If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice by the day after we receive your deposit. If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available. In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the seventh business day after the day of your deposit. SPECIAL RULES FOR NEW ACCOUNTS. If you are a new customer, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open. Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,000 of a day’s total deposits of cashier’s, certified, teller’s, traveler’s, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available on the seventh business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the seventh business day after the day of your deposit. HOLDS ON OTHER FUNDS (CHECK CASHING). If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available if you had deposited it. HOLDS ON OTHER FUNDS (OTHER ACCOUNT). If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn on another bank, we may make funds from the deposit available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in another account with us. The funds in the other account would then not be available for withdrawal until the time periods that are described elsewhere in this disclosure for the type of check that you deposited. |
||||
| ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS | ||||
CONSUMER’S LIABILITY. You will tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check. Telephoning us 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 tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card or code, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card or code without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card or code and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card or code without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00. Limitation of Liability for Unauthorized VISA Point of Sale Transactions. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Monroe Bank Check Card has been lost or stolen or of any unauthorized transactions. Your liability for unauthorized Monroe Bank Check Card transactions that take place on the VISA system is zero dollars ($0.00). We may require you to provide a written statement regarding claims of unauthorized Monroe Bank Check Card transactions. With respect to unauthorized transactions, these limits may be exceeded to the extent allowed under applicable law (see CONSUMER'S LIABILITY paragraph) only if we determine that you were grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your account or Monroe Bank Check Card. Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, including those made by card, code or other means, you will 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 that you lost 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. CONTACT IN EVENT OF UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFER. If you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, you will call (812) 336-0201, (800) 319-2664, or write MONROE BANK, P.O. Box 2329, Bloomington, IN 47402. You should also call the number or write to the address listed above if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check without your permission. BUSINESS DAYS.

DOCUMENTATION: Terminal Transfers. You can get a receipt at the time you make any transfer to or from your account using one of our automated teller machines or point-of-sale terminals.

Periodic Statements. You will get a monthly account statement unless there are no electronic transfers in a particular month. In any case, you will get the statement at least semi-annually. You will not receive a periodic statement if your account is a passbook account. Present your passbook and we will record any electronic deposits to your account.
PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS: Stop Payments. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here is how: call us at (812) 336-0201, (800) 319-2664, or write us at MONROE BANK, P O Box 2329, Bloomington, IN 47402, 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 can also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after your call.

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.

We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared. You will:
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (5 business days if VISAâ Check Card point-of-sale transaction, and 20 business days if new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if point-of-sale transaction, or new account, or a foreign initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (5 business days if VISAâ Check Card point-of-sale transaction, and 20 business days if new account) 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. For the purpose of this paragraph, an account is a new account for a period of 30 days from the date of the first deposit to the account. We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation. |
