- Theft
- Identity TheftA lost or stolen card is just one area of concern in today’s world where Identity theft, skimming and other attacks are an unfortunate reality. Turning your debit card off when you’re not using it helps safeguard against fraud. When your card is “off,” no withdrawals or purchases will be approved. Transaction controls that allow your debit card to work only in specific locations or geographic areas, add another layer of protection. And real-time alerts keep you informed when your card is used or declined.
- ForgeryItems deposited to an Account are credited provisionally, subject to actual and final collection. If the Bank does not receive final payment of an item, it may charge the item back against the Account. The foregoing also applies to items that are drawn on the Bank; such items are not finally paid until the Bank has determined that the item is properly payable. If a third party makes a claim against the Bank based on theft, forgery, alteration or any other claim affecting the Bank’s right to payment on an item presented by an Accountholder, the Bank may immediately withhold or deduct the amount of such claim from the Accountholder’s Account and, in the event that the Bank determines that the claim is justified, it may retain the funds as reimbursement.
- Money LaunderingTo 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. What this means for you: 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’s license or other identifying documents.
- Power of AttorneyAt the request of an Accountholder or Authorized Signer, the Bank may agree to acknowledge a third person as the Accountholder’s attorney-in-fact. The Accountholder’s request shall be made either by designating the third person as a “Convenience Person or Power of Attorney” on the signature card or, at the Bank’s request, by executing a separate power of attorney in a form acceptable to the Bank.
