Online Banking does not permit withdrawals or transfers to or from Individual Retirement Accounts, Certificate Accounts, or Escrow accounts.
Mortgage loan payments must be equal to or greater than the scheduled payment amount.
Consumer Liability For Unauthorized Transfers
CONTACT US AT ONCE if you believe your access device (password) has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way to control your loss. Notice of unauthorized use must be confirmed in writing. You could lose all the money in your account. If you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your access device without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your access device, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your access device without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, 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 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 kept you from telling us, we may extend the time periods.

If the alleged error occurs within the first 30 days of the opening and depositing to a new account the 10 business days become 20 and the 45 calendar days become 90.
