You understand and agree that by using the Services, you are accepting the terms and conditions of this Services Agreement, and that your use of your login credentials will be considered the same as your written signature in authorizing us to complete any transaction or request communicated to us. All electronic communications that meet these requirements will be deemed to be valid and authentic and you intend and agree that those electronic communications will be given the same legal effect as written and signed paper communications. You agree that electronic copies of communications are valid and you will not contest the validity of the originals or copies, absent proof of altered data or tampering. Because the Services are performed electronically, they are governed by federal and state laws and regulations pertaining to electronic funds transfers which entitle you to certain benefits and protections, which are contained in this Services Agreement.

2. REQUIREMENTS

(a) Account Access - To access your account via the Services, you must have at least one eligible deposit or loan account, a Member Identifier ("User ID") , and a password (the "Password") that you choose. You may only designate accounts that you own jointly, severally or otherwise or that you have the authority to use. You agree to provide us with any additional documentation we may require to permit access to your account. If you apply for an account or service via Electronic Banking, or ask to change an account or service you already use with us, you agree that we can treat your application or request as if it had been made in writing and signed by you. You understand by enrolling for Bill Payment, that you authorize us to investigate and verify any information supplied by you.

(b) Joint Accounts - If you have designated a joint account to be accessible via the Services, each joint owner will be jointly and severally liable under this Services Agreement. We may act upon the instructions of any joint owner concerning the account without the consent of any other person.

(c) Special Withdrawal Limitations. Banking regulations limit your ability to transfer funds between certain accounts, as described in the terms and conditions governing your deposit account (the "Deposit Agreement"). For example, you can make no more than 6 transfers from a savings or money market savings account during each monthly cycle. Transfers to another account or for making payment to a third party by means of a preauthorized or telephone agreement, order or instrument, withdrawals using a telephone, items processed through the Services, and checks are all counted against the permissible number of transfers, as are other transfer methods described in your Deposit Agreement, except where the transfers are made to pay on a loan with us.

(d) Limitations and Dollar Amounts for Transfers and Payments. Transfers from one designated account to another may not exceed the available balance in your account from which the transfers are made. Bill payments are limited to a standard $10,000.00 per bill and may not exceed the available balance in the account from which payments are made. We reserve the right to limit the frequency and dollar amount of transactions from your designated accounts for security reasons.

You agree not to use your Password for any transaction that would cause your account balance to go below zero. We will not be required to complete any such transaction, but if we do, you agree to pay us the amount of the improper withdrawal or transfer upon demand and any associated fees for such service. Otherwise, you authorize us to collect any such amounts, including the amount of the service fees you may owe us from any account you maintain with us.

(f) Protecting Your Account. You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your login credentials..

BUSINESS DAYS. You may use Bill Payment any time, 7 days a week. However, regular business days for posting Bill Payment Service transactions to your account are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

  • Refer to our Schedule of Fees and Charges

TRANSACTION PROCEDURES. Bill Payments may be processed in three different transaction modes. They are as follows:

1. “Today.” If you designate a payment as a “Today” transaction, the scheduled initiation date will be due the next business day. However, sufficient funds must be available on the day and the time you request the “Today” transaction. “Today” Bill Payments may not be canceled for any reason once you have ended a Bill Payment session, as funds are immediately deducted from the designated account. You must have funds available in your checking account for a “Today” payment.

2. “Future.” If you designate a Bill Payment as a “Future” transaction, you may request that the transaction be made on a future date that you may designate, up to 364 days in advance of the Scheduled Initiation Date. The due date that you enter will be the date funds must be received by the recipient. Funds will be debited approximately 2 – 7 business days in advance of the due date in order for the funds to be received by the party you intend them to be sent to. “Future” transactions must be canceled or changed before the close of business prior to the processing date.

3. “Recurring.” If you designate a Bill Payment as a “Recurring” transaction, you may request, and PCCU will use, a Scheduled Initiation Date that reoccurs on a specified regular basis (i.e.: weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc.). You will designate a “start” and “end” date. Sufficient funds must be available before the close of business prior to the processing date, but will be deducted from your Share Draft (Checking) account on the Scheduled Initiation Date. “Recurring” transactions must be canceled or changed before the close of business prior to the processing date.

CREDIT UNION LIABILITY. 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. Our sole responsibility for an error in a transfer will be to correct the error, and in no case will we be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages. In states that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of such damages, our liability is limited to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Credit Union will not be liable for the following:

1. If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer, your account is inactive, or the transfer would go over the credit limit on your line of credit, if applicable.

2. If you used the wrong PIN or you have not properly followed any applicable computer, or Credit Union user instructions for making transfer and bill payment transactions.

3. If your computer fails or malfunctions or the phone lines or Credit Union computer system was not properly working and such problem should have been apparent when you attempted such transaction.

4. If circumstances beyond your control (such as fire, flood, telecommunication outages or strikes, equipment or power failure) prevent making the transaction.

5. If the funds in your account are subject to an administrative hold, legal process or other claim.

6. If, through no fault of ours, a bill payment or funds transfer transaction does not reach a particular payee due to changes or inaccuracies in the payee address, account number or otherwise; the time you allow for payment delivery was insufficient; or the payee failed to process a payment correctly, or in a timely manner, and a fee, penalty, or interest is assessed against you.

7. If the error was caused by a system beyond the Credit Union’s control such as a telecommunications system, an Internet service provider, any computer virus or problems related to software not provided by Credit Union.

8. If you have closed the designated checking account.

9. If there are other exceptions as established by the Credit Union.
