Business Electronic Transfers Disclosure


ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFER

The Electronic Fund Transfers we are capable of handling are indicated below, some of which may not apply to your account. Some of these may not be available at all terminals. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for these transactions. You should keep this notice for future reference.

TYPES OF TRANSFERS, FREQUENCY AND DOLLAR LIMITATIONS

(a) Prearranged Transfers.

Preauthorized credits. You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your checking and/or savings account(s).

Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your checking and/or savings account(s). (Fees may apply.)

(b) Telephone Transfers.

You may access your account(s) by telephone at anytime using a touchtone phone, your account numbers, and taxpayer and personal identification numbers to:

  • Transfer funds between your checking and savings account(s).
  • Make loan payments from your checking and savings account(s).

  • Get certificate of deposit and Individual Retirement Account(s) information.

(c) ATM Transfers.

You may access your account(s) by ATM using your ATM Card or Check Card and personal identification number to:

  • Make deposits to checking and/or savings account(s).
  • Get cash withdrawals from your designated checking and/or savings account(s). There is no limit as to the number of times in a day you may use your card. Our daily withdrawal limit is $500.00 or the amount of the available balance of your selected account, whichever is less.
  • Transfer funds between your checking and savings account(s).
  • Get information about your checking or savings account(s).

(d) Point-Of-Sale Transactions.

Using your card:

You may access your checking account to purchase goods in person, by phone, or by computer, pay for services in person, by phone, or by computer, get cash from a merchant, if the merchant permits, or from a participating financial institution, and do anything that a participating merchant will accept.

Since the protections available to consumers do not apply to business accounts, the accountholder may set the dollar limit for card transactions. The standard daily limit is $2,000.00 or the amount of the available balance, whichever is less.

(e) Computer Transfers.

You may access your account(s) by computer anytime by signing onto www.bksalem.net and selecting the Online Banking Option and entering your User Name and Password to:

  • Transfer funds between checking and/or savings account(s)
  • Make payments from checking and/or savings accounts to loan accounts with us.
  • Make payments from checking or savings accounts with us to other vendors through the Bill Pay feature.
  • Get checking and/or savings account(s) information.
  • Get Certificate of Deposit (CD) or Individual Retirement Account (IRA) information.
  • Get loan account information.

You may also access your account(s) by web-enabled cell phone at m.bksalem.net or downloading the app. You may be charged access fees by your cell phone providers based on your individual plan. Web access is needed to use this service.

(f) Electronic Fund Transfers Initiated by Third Parties.

You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your account and the third party’s account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearing House (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party can occur in a number of ways. For example, your authorization to convert a check to an electronic fund transfer or to electronically pay a returned check charge can occur when a merchant provides you with notice and you proceed with the transaction (typically, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third party with your account number and financial institution information. This information can be found on your check as well as on a deposit slip. Thus, you should only provide your financial information (whether over the phone, the internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you have authorized to initiate these transfers. Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:

  • Electronic check conversion
  • Electronic returned check charge

FEES

ATM Operator/Network Fees:

When you use an ATM not owned by us, you may be charged a surcharge fee by the ATM operator or any network used (and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer). The Bank of Salem will also charge a $1.00 fee when you use an ATM not in our network.

Except for charges indicated above, we do not charge for Electronic Fund Transfers.

DOCUMENTATION

(a) Terminal Transfers. You will get a receipt at the time you make any transfer to or from your account using one of our terminals. You will receive a copy of the merchant receipt at the time that the Point of Sale transaction is originated with your Check Card. You may not get a receipt if the amount of the transfer is $15.00 or less.

(b) Preauthorized Credits. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account, you can call us at the telephone number listed at the end of this disclosure to find out whether or not the deposit has been made. You may call our 24 hr Information Hotline at 895-4636 or toll-free at 866-570-4636. You may also access your account through Online Banking with your user id and password to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.

(c) In addition, You will get a monthly account statement from us, unless there are no transfers in a particular month. In any case you will get a statement at least quarterly.

PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS

(a) Right to stop payment and procedure for doing so. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here’s how:

Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed at the bottom of this disclosure, in time for us to receive your request three business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. You may request a stop payment through online banking (using the appropriate Secure Email form accessible after signing on with your password to a secure session of Online Banking) 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 the request is made.

We charge $25.00 for each stop payment.

(b) Notice of varying amounts. If these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell you, 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.)

(c) Liability for failure to stop payment of preauthorized transfer. 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.

FINANCIAL INSTITUTION’S LIABILITY

(a) 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, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:

  • If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
  • If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line (if applicable).
  • If the automated teller machine where you are making the transfer does not have enough cash.
  • If the terminal or system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
  • If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
  • If a legal order directs us to prohibit withdrawals from the account.
  • If you, or anyone you allow, commits any fraud or violates any law or regulations.
  • If you have not properly followed the instructions for Online Banking.
  • There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.

CONFIDENTIALITY

  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
