CONSUMER’S LIABILITY. You will tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen. Telephoning us is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card or code without your permission.
If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card or code and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card or code without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
Limitation of Liability for Unauthorized VISA Point of Sale Transactions. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your ATM Card has been lost or stolen or of any unauthorized transactions. Your liability for unauthorized ATM Card transactions that take place on the VISA system is zero dollars ($0.00). We may require you to provide a written statement regarding claims of unauthorized ATM Card transactions. With respect to unauthorized transactions, these limits may be exceeded to the extent allowed under applicable law (see CONSUMER'S LIABILITY paragraph) only if we determine that you were grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your account or ATM Card.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, you will 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 that 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.
When you use an ATM not owned by us, you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator or any network used (and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer).
CONTACT IN EVENT OF UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFER. If you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, you will call (770)419-3337 or write SECURITY EXCHANGE BANK, Customer Service Department, South Cobb Drive Branch, 833 South Cobb Drive , Marietta , GA 30060.

- Where it is necessary for completing transfers, or
- In order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party such as a credit bureau or merchant, or

DOCUMENTATION:

- Periodic Statements. You will get a monthly account statement unless there are no electronic transfers in a particular month. In any case, you will get the statement at least quarterly. You will not receive a periodic statement if your account is a passbook account. Present your passbook and we will record any electronic deposits to your account.
PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS:
- Stop Payments. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your account, you can stop any of these payments.

If you call, we can also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after your call. We will charge you $30.00 for each stop payment order you give us.
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 three business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION’S LIABILITY. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time, or in the correct amount according to your agreement with us, 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 do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
· If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line.
· If the automated teller machine where you are making the transfer does not have enough cash.
· If the terminal or system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
· If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
· There may be other exceptions stated in your agreement with us.
IN CASE OF ERRORS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR ELECTRONIC TRANSFERS. You will telephone us at (770)419-3337 or write us at SECURITY EXCHANGE BANK, South Cobb Drive Branch, 833 South Cobb Drive , Marietta , GA 30060 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. You will:
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 ( 5 business days if VISA â Checkcard point-of-sale transaction, and 20 business days if 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 point-of-sale transaction, or new account, 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 ( 5 business days if VISA â Checkcard point-of-sale transaction, and 20 business days if new account) 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 the purpose of this paragraph, an account is a new account for a period of 30 days from the date of the first deposit to the account.
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.
