Error Resolution Notice
In case of errors or questions about your Electronic Transfers, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed below, as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement or receipt.

We will determine whether an error occurred within 10-business days (5-business days if involving a Visa® transaction or 20-business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45-days (90-days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction, or a foreign initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question.

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.
Change in Terms
Should we change our Terms or Conditions affecting your Electronic Transfers, and if the change would result in increased fees or charges, increased liability, fewer types of available electronic fund transfers, or stricter limitations, we will notify you by mail at least 21-days prior to those changes. Notice need not be given where an immediate change in Terms or Conditions is necessary to maintain, or restore the security of an electronic funds transfer system or account.
