Electronic Fund Transfers

Indicated below are types of Electronic Fund Transfers we are capable of handling, some of which may not apply to your account. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for the transactions listed.

Electronic Fund Transfers Initiated By Third Parties

You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your account and the third party's account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers to make or receive payment may use the Automated Clearinghouse House (ACH) or other payments network.  Your authorization to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example, your authorization to convert a check to an electronic fund transfer or to electronically pay a returned check charge can occur when a merchant provides you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third party with your account number and bank information. This information can be found on your check as well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide your bank and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you may have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers. Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:

• Preauthorized credits. You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your savings and money market account(s).
• Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your savings and money market account(s).
• Electronic check conversion. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time electronic payment from your money market account using information from your check to pay for purchases or pay bills.
• Electronic returned check charge. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to initiate an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge in the event a check is returned for insufficient funds.

Fees

Documentation 

 • Terminal transfers. You can get a receipt at the time you make a transfer to or from your account using a point-of-sale terminal. However, you may not get a receipt if the amount of the transfer is $15 or less.
• Preauthorized credits. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from the same person or company, you can call us at 888.433.427 or visit our website at capitalsourcebank.com to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.
• Periodic statements.
You will get a monthly account statement from us for your savings and money market accounts.

Preauthorized Payments

 • 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 is how:
      Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure 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.
     Please refer to our separate fee schedule for the amount we will charge you  for each stop payment order you give.
• 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.)
• 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 direct losses or damages.

Financial Institution's Liability

        Liability for failure to make transfers. 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. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:

(1) If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
(2) If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
(3) There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.  

Confidentiality

 We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:

(1) Where it is necessary for completing transfers; or
(2) In order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
(3) In order to comply with the government agency or court orders; or
(4) As explained in the separate Privacy Disclosure.

Unauthorized Transfers

         (a) Consumer liability. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account. If you tell us within 2 business days after you the learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card and/or code without your permission.
If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or code 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, including those made by card, code or other means, 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 will consider extending the time periods.

        (b) Contact in event of unauthorized transfer. If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure. You should also call the number or write to the address listed in this brochure, if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check without your permission.

Error Resolution Notice

     In case of errors or questions about your electronic transfers, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure, 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 must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.

(1) Tell us your name and account number (if any).
(2) 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.
(3) 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 (20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and we 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. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have 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. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account with us before this account is opened.
     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.
