Other EFT Transactions: You may access certain account(s) you maintain with us by other EFT transaction types as described below.

Electronic Check Conversion. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time electronic payment from your account using information from your check to pay for purchases or pay bills. Electronic check conversion is a payment process in which a merchant or other payee (after obtaining your authorization) uses your check to gather routing, account, and check number information to initiate a one-time EFT.  When information from your check is used to make an electronic fund transfer, funds may be withdrawn from your account as soon as the same day you make your payment. This type of EFT transaction involving a consumer account is covered by the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and this disclosure. A description of the transaction will appear on your statement.

Re-presented Check Transactions and Fees. You may authorize a merchant to electronically collect a fee associated with the re-presentment of a check that is returned due to insufficient or unavailable funds. The resulting fee transaction if debited as an EFT from a consumer account is covered by the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and this disclosure. When a merchant re-presents a check electronically, that transaction is not covered by the Electronic Funds Transfer Act or this disclosure. A description of the transaction will appear on your statement.

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 may use the Automated Clearing 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. 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 have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers. Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to: Pre-authorized credits - You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your checking or savings. Pre-authorized payments - You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your checking.

The following limitations may be applicable to your accounts, except as provided by law:

Liability for Unauthorized MasterCard Debit Card Transactions on Cards Issued to Certain Consumers and Small Businesses.

The zero liability limit described below only applies to a United States-issued MasterCard branded debit card issued to: (i) a natural person, or (ii) a business or other entity only if the card is issued under a "small business" program described on MasterCard's website at www.mastercardbusiness.com.  The zero liability limit described below does not apply if you are a business or an entity of any sort (corporation, limited liability company, partnership, etc.) unless the card issued to you is a "small business" card described above. The zero-liability limit described below does not apply until your identity is registered by or on behalf of the card issuer. Under MasterCard's zero liability policy as described in the MasterCard Rules (as may be amended from time to time), the zero-liability limitation described below may not apply for other reasons.

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your MasterCard debit card has been lost or stolen or if you believe any unauthorized transactions have been made using your MasterCard debit card. Your liability for unauthorized use of your debit card with the MasterCard logo will not exceed zero dollars ($0.00) if the following conditions have been met: (i) you have exercised reasonable care in safeguarding your card from risk of loss or theft; and (ii) upon becoming aware of such loss or theft you promptly reported the loss or theft to us.  If the conditions set forth above have not been met, you may be liable for unauthorized transactions to the extent allowed under applicable law (for example, see Liability for Unauthorized Transfers paragraph below). To notify us of lost or stolen cards, or of unauthorized transactions, call or write to us at the telephone number or address set forth in the Liability for Unauthorized Transfers paragraph below. This will help prevent unauthorized access to your account and minimize any inconvenience.

MasterCard is a registered trademark of MasterCard Worldwide or its subsidiaries in the United States.

In addition to the limitations set forth above, the following limitations may be applicable to your accounts:

Liability for Unauthorized Transfers. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card, ATM PIN, POS card or PIN, Audio Response PIN, or online and/or mobile banking PIN has been lost or stolen or 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 (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card or code, you can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used your card or code without your permission.  If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card or code, and we can prove that 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. Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, including those made by card code or other such means, tell us at once.  If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money lost after the sixty (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 that your card or code has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, call (325) 446-2531, or write us at Junction National Bank, PO Box 65, Junction, TX 76849.  You should also call the number or write this address if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check without your permission.

Illegal Transactions. You may not use your ATM, POS, or Debit Card, or other access device for any illegal or unlawful transaction, and we may decline to authorize any transaction that we believe poses an undue risk of illegality or unlawfulness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may collect on any debt arising out of any illegal or unlawful transaction.

Our 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:

  • If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.

  • If the money in your account is subject to legal process or other claim restricting such transfer.

  • If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line.

  • If the ATM 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.

For new accounts, we may take up to twenty (20) business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.

ATM SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

As issuers of Automated Teller Machine (ATM) access devices, we have provided for your information a list of safety precautions regarding the use of automated teller machines. Please read the following safety precautions:

  • When using walk-up or drive-up unmanned automated teller machines (ATMs) -
    • Remain aware of surroundings, particularly at night, and exercise caution when withdrawing funds;

    • Inspect an ATM before use for possible tampering, or for the presence of an unauthorized attachment that could capture information from the access device or your Personal Identification Number (PIN);

    • Refrain from displaying cash and put it away as soon as the transaction is completed; and

    • Wait to count cash until you are in the safety of a locked enclosure, such as your car or home

  • Do not reveal your personal identification number (PIN) to others. Avoid allowing others to view your PIN entry into an ATM.  Memorize your PIN and do not write your personal identification number or code on your ATM access device.

  • Safeguard and protect your access device. Treat it as if it were cash, and if it has an embedded chip, keep the device in a safety envelope to avoid undetected and unauthorized scanning.

  • Promptly report a lost or stolen access device and report all crimes to law enforcement officials immediately.

  • If you observe suspicious persons or circumstances while approaching or using an ATM, do not use the machine or, if you are in the middle of a transaction, cancel the transaction, take the access device, leave the area, and come back another time or use an ATM at another location.

  • Safeguard and securely dispose of ATM receipts.

  • Do not surrender information about your access device over the telephone or over the Internet, unless to a trusted merchant in a call or transaction initiated by you.

  • Promptly review your monthly statement and compare ATM receipts against your statement to protect against ATM fraud.

  • If purchasing online with the access device, end transactions by logging out of websites rather than simply closing the web browser to protect against Internet fraud.
