Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfer.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your account information and/or password have been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down.

If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your account information and/or password, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your account/and or password without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
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 (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
If you believe your account information and/or password been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your accounts without your permission, call:
(813) 621-7511

If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days 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 errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.
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.
Disclosure of Account Information to Third Parties
We will disclose information to third parties about your Account or transfers you made:
When it is necessary to complete the transfers;
In order to verify the existence and conditions of your Account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant;
In order to comply with a government agency or court orders; or
If you give us written permission.
To protect you, we may use tools and services provided by third parties to help us decide whether to accept submissions from personal computers, mobile phones, or other devices. These third-party providers may check whether user devices have been identified with fraudulent or abusive transactions in the past, such as reported instances of identity theft, account takeovers, or malware attacks. For this purpose, a cookie, flash storage token, or other code file may be placed on your device to identify it in the future when you visit our website or connect with our other online applications. If you set your browser or device to reject these cookies or tokens, you may not be able to access some features of our website or other online applications.
When you access the Service, we will transmit this third-party device identification code to the third-party provider, along with data concerning certain technical attributes of your device such as the model, operating system, and browser version, as well as the IP address (all of which are used to confirm device identification). We may then receive information from these third-party providers indicating that submissions from a user’s device should not be accepted. We may also inform such third-party providers if we determine that a device has been used in connection with a fraudulent or abusive transaction with us. In addition, in certain situations, we may share with one or more of these third-party providers certain personal identifying information and information about the device you are using. If you receive a message from us indicating that a requested submission has not been processed, we will provide appropriate member service contact information.

I. Bill Payment Service
You may use Bill Payment Service to pay current, future, and recurring bills from a share eligible account, referred to as eligible account, to billers you designate. You must give us the name and address of the biller (the company or person who will receive the payment), your account, or other identifying number (if any) with the biller. Bill payments may only be made to payees with U.S. payment addresses. When you schedule a bill payment using this Service, you authorize us to withdraw the necessary funds from the designated eligible account. We may refuse to act on your instructions if sufficient funds are not available on the date we attempt to process the payment. Use the “Transfer Funds” menu in the online banking services to pay your loans with us at the Credit Union. We strongly recommend you do not use this Service to make payments to the following due to the risk associated with late payments and additional documents often required when submitting payments: The Government, The State, County Taxes, Attorneys, Collection Agencies, Court Orders, or to make Investments for settlement of securities like stocks. WE MAKE NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE SERVICES OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT OR TORT OR WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS KNOWN TO US.
E-Bill
Electronic bill is a digital version of a paper bill that can be viewed and paid for online. Members can log into the biller’s site and obtain an electronic statement directly in Bill Payment Service. E-Bill autopay will retrieve data needed like amount due and due date to allow the payment to be made automatically. The biller may require multifactor authentication.
Upon activation of the electronic bill feature we may notify the Payee of your request to receive electronic billing information. The presentment of your first electronic bill may vary by Payee and may take up to sixty (60) days, depending on the billing cycle of each Payee. Additionally, the ability to receive a paper copy of your statement(s) is at the sole discretion of the Payee. While your electronic bill feature is being activated it is your responsibility to keep your accounts current. Each electronic Payee reserves the right to accept or deny your request to receive electronic bills.
Business Days for Bill Payments
For Bill Payment Service, our "business days" are Monday through Friday, excluding published holidays. A "business day" ends at 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time each afternoon.
Processing Bill Payments
We can process a bill payment on the next Business Day after you initiate bill payment instructions. If you schedule a bill payment for a future date, we process the transaction on that specified processed date, provided that date is a Business Day. If the processed date you schedule for your transaction is not a Business Day or a holiday, we may process the transaction on the Business Day immediately prior to the processed date you scheduled.
Expedited Delivery for bill payments may be offered. This option is available for check payments only. When you select this option, you will be notified of a fee for this service, and the check will be sent via 2-business day delivery. After enabling the expedited delivery option and authorizing the fee deduction from your selected account, the payments send date and expected delivery date will be displayed. For fees related to expedited service, please refer to the Fee Schedule. The fee for expedite service is $24.95.
We deduct the amount of your bill payment from your eligible account on the date we process the instruction. To ensure that your payments arrive on time, you must schedule payments to be processed at least seven (7) Business Days for manually processed check items and three (3) Business Days for electronically processed items before the payment due date. This generally allows sufficient time for the biller to receive and post the payment. We are not responsible for postal delays, processing delays or late payments by the biller.
We process bill payment instructions only when there are sufficient funds available in your eligible account. If sufficient funds are not available in your eligible account on the scheduled date of payment your payment will be rejected. If you have overdraft protection on your account, we may utilize the overdraft protection account(s) assigned. If sufficient funds are not available in your eligible account, we will reject the payment. Each rejected payment will generate a message disclosing the rejected payment status (NSF). When sufficient funds are available in your eligible account to make the payment and you wish to remit the payment, you will have to again initiate the payment using this Service.
When you add billers to this Service, you must enter your account/reference number and address as they appear on the relevant payment stub or invoice. Occasionally a biller may choose not to participate in this Service or may require additional information before accepting payments electronically. We work with these billers to encourage them to accept an electronic or check payment from the Credit Union.
If we are unsuccessful, or if we believe that the biller cannot process payments in a timely manner, we may decline to make future electronic payments to that biller. In the unlikely event that this occurs, we will send you a notice. We may always refuse to make payments to certain billers.
How Bill Payments are Made
Your bill payments are processed by a third-party service by either sending an electronic transmission to the biller or by mailing a draft to the biller, based on the information you have provided to us regarding the biller. Please note that billers who receive electronic delivery will receive your payment information, including the account number, through a computer link. Electronic payments are generally received and credited by most billers within three Business Days. All checks drawn on your account are mailed through the U.S. Postal Service. Check payments are generally received and credited by most billers within seven Business Days.
Canceling a Bill Payment
You may cancel a pending bill payment transaction. However, to do so, we must receive your instructions to cancel it prior to 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time on the date the transaction is scheduled to be processed. If we do not receive your instructions to cancel a transaction before that time, we may process the transaction. To cancel any payment transaction, you must delete or cancel the transaction within the service application.
Limits on Bill Payments
The maximum amount of a single bill payment transaction is $25,000.00. The daily limit for all bill payment transactions is $25,000.00. The weekly limit for all bill payment transactions is $75,000.00. The monthly limit for all bill payment transactions is $200,000.00. The weekly limit may vary by channel.

You authorize and permit us to use information you submit to make transfers and to configure the Transfer Service to be compatible with the Accounts.
Not all types of accounts are eligible for Transfer Services. We may decline the use of any Account that we believe may present a risk to you and/or us. Be sure to check with your Financial Institution for restrictions regarding transfers among your accounts.
Business Days for Transfer Services
For Transfer Services, our "business days" are Monday through Friday, excluding published holidays. A "business day" ends at 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time each afternoon.
Transfer Types and Limitations
Type of Transfers. We may add new features to the Transfer Service, including a next-day service and a higher limit service. You will be approved or declined for any such additional service at our sole discretion and additional terms and conditions may apply. We may at any time decline a funds transfer that we believe may violate applicable law of regulation.
Frequency of Transfers. We do not limit the number of funds transfers you may make; however, the account agreement for the relevant Account may provide transfers limits. For security and risk management reasons we may modify the limit, the frequency, and the dollar amount of transfers you can make using our Transfer Service. The limits on the frequency and dollar amount of transfers are solely for the protection of the Credit Union.
Dollar Amount of Transfers. You may not make fund transfers in excess of dollar limits for the Transfer Service. We reserve the right to change the dollar amount of fund transfers you are permitted to make using our Transfer Service. In the event that your use of the Transfer Service has been suspended and reinstated as provided below (see Section Suspension, Reinstatement, and Termination), you understand and agree that your use of the Transfer Service thereafter may be subject to lower dollar amount limitations than would otherwise be permitted by us.
The maximum amount of a single outbound Transfer is $1,000.00. The maximum amount of a single inbound transfer is $1,000.00. The daily limit for all outbound Transfers is $1,000.00. The daily limit for all inbound Transfers is $1,000.00. The weekly limit for all outbound Transfers is $3,000.00. The weekly limit for all inbound Transfers is $3,000.00. The monthly limit for all outbound Transfers is $5,000.00. The monthly limit for all inbound Transfers is $5,000.00. The weekly limit may vary by channel.
Transfers subject to the Rules of the Accounts. All fund transfers are subject to the rules, laws, and regulations governing the relevant Accounts. You may not initiate any fund transfers from or to any Accounts that are not allowed under the rules, laws, or regulations applicable to such Accounts including rules, laws, or regulations designed to prevent the transfer of funds in violation of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) regulations.
Failure or Rejection of Transfers. Upon learning that the fund transfer could not be completed, we may, but are not required to, make a reasonable effort to complete the transfer again. If the fund transfer fails, we will notify you to contact your non-Suncoast Financial Institution to learn more about the failure.
We reserve the right to decline: (i) any fund transfer, (ii) to submit fund transfer instructions or orders, or (iii) to carry out change or cancellation requests.
You represent and warrant to us that you have enough money in the non-Suncoast Accounts to make any funds transfer you request that we make on your behalf through the Transfer Service. If we receive a transfer request against your Account and there are not enough available funds in your Account to cover the transfer, we may at our sole discretion:
Cover the transfer in accordance with the terms of any written overdraft protection plan that you and we have established;
Cover the transfer and create an overdraft to your Account; or
Decline the transfer.
We may make this decision regardless of whether we may have previously honored or dishonored overdrafts. Fees may vary depending on the action we take. Any negative balance on an Account with the Credit Union is immediately due and payable, unless we agree otherwise in writing, and you agree to reimburse us for the costs and expenses (including attorney fees and expenses) we incur in recovering the negative balance (including overdraft and associated fees).
Your Right to Cancel a Transfer. Payments that are in process cannot be cancelled or stopped. When the Transfer Service offers recurring and/or future on-time transfers, you may cancel any transfer if you complete the request before the process date of the one-time transfer or the next scheduled recurring transfer. For recurring transfers, you may cancel only the next scheduled transfer or the entire recurring transfer schedule. After the entire recurring transfer schedule is cancelled, all future transfers will be cancelled, and you must reschedule it if you want transfers to be made in the future.
Revocation: Your authorization will remain in full force and effect until you notify us of your intention to revoke either in writing, by phone or by logging into the Transfer Service. Please note that the cut-off time for cancelling or revoking is 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time on the schedule date.
Authorization
You agree that your transfer instructions are the authorization for us to complete the funds transfer. You authorize us to select any means to execute your fund transfer instructions, such as the Automatic Clearing House (ACH). You will be bound by the rules, laws, and regulations that govern the applicable fund transfer systems, such as ACH rules as published by the National Automated Clearinghouse Association (Nacha), or Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code.
We will make all reasonable efforts to process your transfer requests in a timely manner; however, we reserve the right to hold funds pending settlement or for such period of time as we deem necessary, in our sole discretion, to cover items which may be returned unpaid. For Credit Union Accounts, any interest earned on such funds during the hold period will remain the property of the Credit Union.
To complete your funds transfer we may utilize ACH transfers, which will result in a debit to one of your Accounts and a credit to another of your Accounts. All Credit Union ACH transfers go through a Credit Union transfer account. The Credit Union typically holds funds for 3-4 Business Days to make sure that the item will not be returned unpaid before we credit your Account. If the ACH transaction is returned for any reason and the payment has been credited to your Account, you authorize us to debit your Account, in whole or in part, for the amount of the returned item and for any returned item fee.
Suspension, Reinstatement and Termination
Without limiting any other right or remedy that we may have under this Agreement or otherwise, we reserve the right to suspend your right to use the External Transfer Service, immediately and without prior notice to you, if we incur a problem with your use of the External Transfer Service. We may do so if, for example, there is a failure in attempting to debit any of your Accounts or to collect any of your fund transfers as described above. You understand and agree that such action is reasonable for us to take in order to protect the Credit Union from loss.
In our sole discretion, we may grant to deny reinstatement of your use of the External Transfer Service. If we agree to reinstate you, we may initially reinstate your External Transfer Service subject to lower per-transaction and monthly dollar limits and/or with other restrictions. Based upon your subsequent usage of the External Transfer Service, we may restore your ability to complete transfers subject to such higher limits as may then be in effect.
Subject to applicable law or regulation, we may terminate your right to use the External Transfer Service at any time and for any reason, including if in our sole judgement we believe you:
Engaged in conduct or activities that violate any of the terms of this Agreement or our rights; or
Provided us with false or misleading information; or
Interfered with other users or the administration of the External Transfer Services.
Account Number Policy
If the instructions for a transfer under the External Transfer Service identify a Financial Institution by name and account number, we or the relevant Financial Institution may execute those instructions by reference to the account number only, even if the account number does not correspond to the name. You agree that neither we nor the relevant Financial Institution will have responsibility to investigate discrepancies between names and account numbers.
Your Responsibility for Errors
We must rely on the information you provided, and you authorize us to act on any instructions, which has been or reasonably appears to have been sent by you or your Authorized Representative, to submit fund transfer instructions on your behalf. Financial Institutions receiving the fund transfer instructions may rely on such information. We are not obligated to take any further steps to confirm or authenticate such instructions and will act on them without getting further confirmation. If you or your Authorized Representative provide us with incorrect information or if there is any error in your instruction, we will make all reasonable efforts to reverse or delete such instructions, but you accept full responsibility for losses resulting from any of your errors, duplication, ambiguities, or fraud in the information that you provide. If any information you provide is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, without limiting other remedies, we may recover from you any costs or losses incurred as a direct or indirect result of the inaccurate or incomplete information.
We are not responsible for errors, delays, and other problems caused by or resulting from the action or inaction of Financial Institutions holding the non-Suncoast Account, unless otherwise required by law or regulation. Although we will try to assist you in resolving any such problems, you understand that any such errors, delays, or other problems are the responsibility of the relevant Financial Institution. Any rights you may have against a Financial Institution for such errors, delays, or other problems are subject to the terms of the agreements you have with such Financial Institution, including any time limits during which complaints must be made.
Our Liability
If we do not provide a fund transfer instruction on time, if we cause an incorrect amount to be removed from an Account or if we cause funds from an Account to be transferred to any account other than the Account specified in the applicable fund transfer instruction, we shall be responsible for returning the improperly transferred funds and/or for directing any misdirected funds to the proper Account.
We are not liable for any costs, fees, losses or indirect, special, or consequential damages of any kind incurred as a result of:
Our debit and/or credit or inability to debit and/or credit the accounts in accordance with your fund transfer instructions; or
Inaccuracy, incompleteness, or misinformation contained in the information retrieved on the accounts; or
Fund transfer limitations set by the non-Suncoast Financial Institution or by applicable law or regulation; or
Not enough money in your Account to make the fund transfer; or
Transfers exceeding the credit limit on any applicable overdraft line; or
System failures at a non-Suncoast Financial Institution and we are unable to complete the transfer; or
Third party causes, including your non-Suncoast Financial Institution.
Security
Security Procedures. The Financial Institution at which your account is maintained may contact us to verify the content and authority of fund transfer instructions and any changes to those instructions. In connection with the Transfer Service, we may provide that Financial Institution with information as may be required to verify the instructions, and the verification may constitute a valid security procedure under the rules governing that Account.
Deviating from Security Procedures. You permit us to authorize your non-Suncoast Financial Institution to accept funds and transfer instructions in accordance with any authorization procedures you and such Financial Institution have agreed upon, or that we, on your behalf, and such Financial Institution have agreed upon, without verifying the instructions under the established security procedures, regardless of whether you agreed to the security procedures or we agreed on your behalf. In addition, we may authorize such Financial Institution to debit your Accounts based solely on these communications.
Additional Provisions for Business Accounts. The provisions in this Section apply only to transfers to and/or from business accounts. You agree that the password security described in the Agreement and in this Section sets forth security procedures for fund transfers that are commercially reasonable. To the extent that any transfer requests to and/or from business accounts, which are subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code (‘UCC 4A”), you agree that we are liable only for damages required to be paid under UCC 4A. In no event will we be liable for any special, indirect or consequential loss, damage, costs or expense of any nature, including lost profits, even if we have been informed of the possibility of such damage, except as may be required by law or regulation.

Description of Pay a Person Service and Consent
Credit Union members may send one-time or recurring Transfers to Credit Union members or a depositor of another US financial institution. Notice is given to the Contact by the Sender providing the Contact's email address or mobile phone number. You may originate these Transfers by using a computer or a mobile smart phone. You may register for the Pay a Person Service which will make future Transfers more convenient for you. To use this Pay a Person Service you are providing information to our Pay a Person Service Provider from your mobile phone, desktop, laptop, or other computer. Service Provider is a vendor of the Credit Union.
By participating in the Pay a Person Service, you are representing to the Credit Union that you are the owner, or you have the authority to act on behalf of the owner of the mobile phone number or email address you are using to send or receive messages regarding Transfers. In addition, you are consenting to the receipt of emails or automated text messages from the Credit Union or its agent regarding the Transfers and represent to the Credit Union that you have obtained the consent of the Contacts of your intended Transfers.
Funds may be transferred to any account in the United States as long as the Transfer is legal and allowed by the financial institutions involved. You warrant to the Credit Union and Service Provider that you will not use the Pay a Person Service for any purpose that is unlawful or is not permitted by these Terms of Use or applicable law or regulation.
Transfers
You may make one-time or recurring Transfers with the Pay a Person service. The Sender provides the Contact's email address or mobile phone number, and the Pay a Person Service uses this information to notify the Contact. A Contact must accept the Transfer within 10 days, or the Transfer will be cancelled and reversed. During this period, funds may be removed from the Sender's Account for the amount of the Transfer and the fee. Once the Contact has successfully accepted the Transfer, funds will be sent to the Contact’s financial institutions for deposit to the Contact's account. The Credit Union is not responsible for any failure of another financial institution to timely credit its customers’ account.
You acknowledge and agree that Transfers will be completed using only the email address or mobile phone number you enter even, if it identifies a person different from your intended Contact. You must accurately enter the Contact's email address or mobile phone number since your obligation to pay for the Transfer will not be excused by an error in the information you enter.
It is the responsibility of the Sender and Contact of funds to provide accurate information. You agree that you as Sender are authorized to withdraw or as Contact are authorized to deposit funds into the Accounts whose numbers you provide. You authorize the Credit Union, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries considered necessary to validate your identity. This may include asking you for further information, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments, ordering a credit report and verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. You agree further that the Credit Union and Service Provider, in addition to obtaining a credit report, may obtain such additional information as deemed necessary by either of them to ensure that you, or persons to whom you may transfer funds, are not using the Pay a Person Service in violation of law. Including, but not limited to, laws and regulations designed to prevent “money laundering” or the transfer of funds to or from persons or organizations whose accounts are blocked under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) of the United States Treasury Department.
You authorize the Credit Union to debit your account to complete the Transfer you request. If you are receiving funds, you authorize the crediting of your account using Nacha.
Sender Acknowledgment
By using this Pay a Person Service you, as the Sender, authorize the sending of an email or text message instructing the Contact how to receive the funds that you are sending. You are further authorizing any Contact of this message to act on the instructions to receive the funds you are sending. You acknowledge that any party receiving the email message at the email address you provide or text message at the mobile phone number you provide may obtain the funds you are sending.
You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for determining the identity of the party who receives the email or text message and acts upon the email or text message you provide. Your funds may not reach the intended Contact because of errors made by the Sender or Contact and you could lose all the funds. The funds that are credited to the account cannot be recalled by us. If you suspect that you have entered information incorrectly, call us immediately and we may be able to cancel the Transfer. We have no obligation to cancel the Transfer or to reimburse funds that were transferred according to the Sender’s instructions. Furthermore, we may reject any Transfer request and may terminate your use of this Pay a Person Service for any reason including attempting insufficient funded Transfers.
Contact Acknowledgment
By using this Pay a Person Service, the Contact will be asked to provide an account number and routing number for their financial institution, which will be used to transfer funds to the Account. The funds will be transferred through the Automated Clearing House.
The Contact will enter the answer to the security question to validate identity.
It is important that the Contact enter accurate information. The Contact agrees that the Credit Union, the receiving financial institution and our Service Provider may rely solely on the instructions the Contact provide. If the Contact enters inaccurate account number information the funds may be deposited into another person’s account. The Contact acknowledges that the financial institution may make the deposit based on the account number that the Contact provides even if that number does not correlate to the name that they provide. Retrieval of these funds will be the Contact’s responsibility to work with the financial institution to which the funds were sent. The Contact may lose all the funds that were transferred. The funds that are credited to the account cannot be recalled by us.
If the Contact suspects that they have entered information incorrectly or that they have received funds in error, call us immediately and we may attempt to cancel the transaction. We have no obligation to cancel the Transfer or to reimburse funds that were transferred according to the Contact’s instructions.
By using this Pay a Person Service, the Contact agrees that they are the intended Contact of the email or text message, they consent to the transmission by us or our Service Provider of the email or text message, and they agree that they are the intended Contact of the funds. If they are not the person to whom the funds are intended, then the Contact agrees to take no further action. The Contact understands that it is a federal felony to use another person's identification with the intent to commit unlawful activity. The Contacts represents that the information they provide is true and correct information. If any information the Contact provides is fraudulent, the Credit Union reserves the right to recover all costs or losses from you, regardless of whether such costs or losses are incurred directly or indirectly.
Fee for Service
Transfers may overdraft your account and may result in a transfer from another account to cover the overdraft. Fees, if applicable for these situations, are shown in the Fee Schedule. You may be denied service for insufficient funds in your account. You will be responsible for any other transaction fees that apply to your Account.
Please note that your mobile carrier may charge you for text messaging. Please check your mobile service agreement for details on applicable fees. The receiving institution may have limits on the number and type of Transfers allowed. The financial institution of the Contact may also charge a transaction fee.
Timing of Transfers
Transfers to remove the funds from the Sender’s Account may take place immediately; however, the timing of funds received will depend on when the Contact responds to the email or text message and when their financial institution posts the Transfer. The posting of the Transfer is dependent on the business days of that institution.
Limits on Transfers
The maximum amount of a single Transfer is $1,000.00. The daily limit for all Transfers is $1,000.00. The weekly limit for all Transfers is $3,000.00. The monthly limit for all Transfers is $5,000.00. The weekly limit may vary by channel.
Issues Affecting the Posting of Transfers
You authorize us to debit your account to complete the Transfer you request. If you are receiving funds, you authorize the Credit Union to credit your Account using Nacha.
Other events may affect the timing or success of a Transfer reaching the intended Contact. Such events may include, but are not limited to, errors made by the Sender or Contact in entering information, inaccurate account information, delays in posting by the receiving institution, acts of God, and network and Nacha interruptions. If we believe the Transfer may be illegal, we may decline or reverse the Transfer. The receiving institution may choose not to post the Transfer or to delay posting the Transfer. Neither the Credit Union nor the Service Provider is responsible for any delays in the Transfer of funds or the posting of funds to the Contact’s Account. The Contact may have certain rights and responsibilities regarding the failure to timely post transactions, and you are encouraged to pursue dispute resolution with the receiving financial institution.
Financial institutions have rules and regulations that govern their accounts. Some of these regulations may not allow an ACH transfer of funds. The Contact is responsible for ensuring that these types of Transfers are allowed for the Account that they specify. For example, an IRA may not allow electronic transfers directly into the Account. We are not responsible for any action or lack of action taken by the financial institution that delays, inhibits, or prevents the posting of the Transfer to the Account.
Security
The Sender and Contact of funds may choose to register for this Pay a Person Service to simplify their future use of the Pay a Person Service. They may ask to create a username and password and are responsible for keeping the username and password secure. We will not ask you for your password.
If the financial institution contacts us or our Service Provider for information regarding your Account, you authorize us to discuss the Transfer and the account information you have provided.

Tampa, Florida 33680
We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.
- Tell us your name and account number (if any).
- Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
- Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
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 after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days 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 errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.
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.
Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers
Tell us at once if you believe your password or PIN has been lost or stolen compromised or if someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your Accounts (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit and open-end credit). If you believe your account information and/or password has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used your account information and/or password without your permission.
If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your account information and/or password, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your account/and or password without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
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 (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
If you believe your account information, password or PIN has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your accounts without your permission, call:
(813) 621-7511
(800) 999-5887
or write to:

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.
When you give someone your password or PIN, you are authorizing that person to use your service, and you are responsible for all transactions the person performs using your service. All transactions that person performs, even those transactions you did not intend or want performed, are authorized transactions. If you notify us that the person is no longer authorized, then transactions that person performs after the time you notify us are considered unauthorized.
Transactions that you or someone acting with you initiate with fraudulent intent are also authorized transactions.

Preauthorized payments
(1) 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 us at 813-621-7511, or write us at P.O. Box 11904, Tampa FL 33680, in time for us to receive your request 3 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 you call. (We will charge you $29 for each stop-payment order you give.)
(2) 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.)
(3) Liability for failure to stop payment of preauthorized transfer. If you order us to stop one of these payments 3 business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
Our Liability for Failure to Complete Transactions
If we do not complete a transaction 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 don’t have enough available funds in your account to cover the transaction or transfer;
- If a Service wasn't working properly, and you knew about the malfunction when you started the transaction or transfer;
- If the third party to whom any bill payment is to be made fails to properly transmit the payment to the intended biller;
- If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transaction or transfer, despite reasonable precautions we've taken;
- If there are postal delays or processing delays by the biller;
There may be other exceptions not specifically mentioned.
EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE MAKE NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE OTHER THOSE EXPRESS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.
