Service Limitations. The following
limitations on SCCU.com Online Banking transactions may apply in
using the services listed above:
- Transfers. You may make funds
transfers to other accounts of yours as often as you like. However,
transfers and bill payments from a savings or a money market account
will be limited to a total of six (6) in any one month. You may
transfer or withdraw up to the available balance in your account
or up to the available credit limit on a line of credit at the
time of the transfer, except as limited under this Agreement or
your deposit or loan agreements. The Credit Union reserves the
right to refuse any transaction that would draw upon insufficient
or unavailable funds, lower an account below a required balance,
or otherwise require us to increase our required reserve on the
account.
- Account Information. The account
balance and transaction history information may be limited to
recent account information involving your accounts. Also, the
availability of funds for transfer or withdrawal may be limited
due to the processing time for ATM transactions and our Funds
Availability Policy.
- E-Mail. The Credit Union may not immediately receive
E-mail communications that you send and the Credit Union will
not take action based on E-mail requests until the Financial Institution
actually receives your message and has a reasonable opportunity
to act. If you need to contact the Credit Union immediately regarding
an unauthorized transaction or stop payment request, you may call
the Credit Union at the telephone number set forth in the Liability
for Unauthorized Access section.
Bill Pay
You may authorize new payment instructions or edit previously authorized
payment instructions for bill payments that are either periodic
and nonrecurring (ie payments on merchant charge accounts that vary
in amount) ("periodic bill payments") or automatic and
recurring (ie fixed monthly mortgage payments) ("automatic
bill payments"). When you transmit a bill payment instruction
to us, you authorize us to transfer funds to make the bill payment
transaction from the account you designate. We will process bill
payment transfer requests only to those payees designated in the
Credit Union's User Instructions and such payees as you authorize
and for whom the Credit Union has the proper vendor code number.
The Credit Union will not process any bill payment transfer if the
required transaction information is incomplete. If there are insufficient
funds in your account to make the bill payment request, we may either
refuse to make the payment or make the payment and transfer funds
from any overdraft protection account you have established. The
Credit Union reserves the right to refuse to process payment instructions
that reasonably appear to the Credit Union to be fraudulent or erroneous.
The Credit Union will withdraw the designated funds from your account
for the bill payment transfer by 10:00 pm on the
date you schedule for payment. The Credit Union will process your
bill payment transfer within one (1) business day of the date you
schedule for payment . The Credit Union will make only two attempts
to process your scheduled payment transfer. Each attempt will result
in an NSF fee of $29.00 if there are insufficient funds in your
checking account.
It is your responsibility to schedule your bill payments
in such a manner that your obligations will be paid on time. You
should enter and transmit your bill payment instructions through
SCCU.com Online Banking at least 6 - 10 business days
before a bill is due. You are responsible for any late payments
or finance charges that may be imposed as a result of your failure
to transmit a timely bill payment authorization.
You may cancel or stop payment
of periodic and automatic bill payment instructions under certain
circumstances. If you discover an error in or want to change a payment
instruction (ie payment date or payment amount) for a periodic or
automatic bill payment you have already scheduled for transmission
through SCCU.com Online Banking, you may electronically edit or
cancel your payment request through SCCU.com Online Banking. Your
cancellation request must be entered and transmitted through SCCU.com
Online Banking before the date you have scheduled for payment. If
your request is entered prior to the payment date of the
bill, and the payment is made, you will be responsible for the payment.
If you wish to place an oral stop payment on an automatic bill payment
transaction not using SCCU.com Online Banking, the Credit Union
must receive your oral stop payment request at least three (3) business
days before the next payment is scheduled to be made. You may call
the Credit Union at (321) 752-2222 or (800) 447-7228 to reach the
Member Service Center, and request a stop payment. If you call the
Credit Union, we will require you to confirm your stop payment request
in writing within fourteen (14) days after the call, and the Credit
Union may charge a fee for each request. There may be a fee for
any stop payments on any bill payer transactions that have already
been processed.

or accessed your accounts through SCCU.com Online Banking without
your authorization. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your
possible losses down. If you tell us within two (2) business days,
you can lose not more than fifty dollars ($50.00) if someone accesses
your accounts without your permission. If you do not tell us within
two (2) business days after you learn of the unauthorized use of
your account or PIN, and we can prove that we could have stopped
someone from accessing your account without your permission if you
had told us, you could lose as much as five hundred dollars ($500.00).
In any event your liability for unauthorized line of credit transactions
through SCCU.com Online Banking is fifty dollars ($50.00).

transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not
tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to
you or retrieved electronically, you may not get back any money
lost after the sixty days (60) if we can prove that we could have
stopped someone from making the transfers if you had told us in
time. If a good reason kept you from telling us, we will extend
the time periods.
