STOP PAYMENT
- Customer warrants that the information describing the Item provided above,
including the check or scheduled transfer date, exact amount, check number and payee,
is correct.
- Customer understands that the EXACT amount of the Item is necessary for Bank's
computer to stop payment. If Customer provides Bank with an incorrect amount or
any other incorrect information, Bank will not be responsible for failing to stop
payment on the Item.
- Customer acknowledges that stop payment orders on checks must be received
by Bank within a reasonable time for Bank to act on the order prior to final payment
of the check and stop payment orders on an ACH/EFT transfer must be received by
Bank at least three (3) business days preceding the schedule date of the pre-authorized
ACH/EFT. If stop payment orders are not received within these time periods, Bank
will not be responsible for failing to stop payment.
- Customer agrees that Customer may not stop payment on any point-of-sale ACH/EFT
transfer; any cashier's check, certified check or other official institution check
Customer has purchased from Bank; or any check guaranteed by the Bank.
- Customer understands that Customer's stop payment order is conditional and
is subject to Bank's verification that the Item has not already been paid or that
some other action to pay the Item has not been taken by Bank.
- Customer agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from all costs, including
attorneys fees, damages or claims relating to Bank's action in refusing payment
of the Item, including claims of any joint owner, payee or endorsee. Customer agrees
that payment by Bank of the Item through its inadvertence, oversight or mistake
shall not constitute failure to exercise ordinary care and the Bank shall not be
liable for payment for any reason other than its failure to exercise ordinary care.
- Customer agrees to notify Bank promptly of the issuance of a duplicate Item
or return of the original Item.
- A stop payment order against an ACH/EFT transfer is effective only against
the ACH/EFT transfer that is described above and does not cancel or revoke Customer's
authorization for future ACH/EFT transfers by the same originator.
- A written stop payment order or an oral stop payment order that is confirmed
in writing is effective for six (6) months from the Stop Payment Date and will expire
automatically at that time unless Customer has specifically renewed it in writing
prior to expiration.
- All stop payment orders are subject to Bank's Deposit Account Terms and Conditions,
Bank policy and applicable law.
