1. Bill Payment.
a. Using Bill Payment. As used in this Agreement, the term “Payee” means the person or entity to
whom you wish a bill payment to be directed; “Payment Instruction” means the
information provided by you to us for a bill payment to be made to the Payee (such as, but
not limited to, Payee name, Payee account number, and Scheduled Payment Date);
“Payment Account” means your checking account from which a bill payment will be made;
“Business Day” means Monday through Friday, excluding Federal Reserve holidays;
“Scheduled Payment Date” means the Business Day of your choice upon which your bill
payment will begin processing (a Scheduled Payment Date of a non-Business Day will be
considered to be the previous Business Day); and “Cutoff Time” means 9:00 p. m.
Mountain Time (MT) on any Business Day and is the time by which you must transmit
Payment Instructions to have them considered entered on that particular Business Day.
To gain access to Bill Payment, you must sign on to NetTeller Online Banking by
entering your NetTeller ID and PIN on the Bank’s web page. Select an option under “Bill
Payment” from the NetTeller menu.
To use Bill Payment, you must provide information online to us to identify your Payees.
You can search the extensive database for existing Payees or set up a new Payee. You must
provide sufficient information about a Payee to permit us to properly direct a payment and
permit the Payee upon receipt of a payment to identify you as the payment source. You do
this by filling in all required fields with accurate information, as directed by Bill Payment
screen messages. By providing us with the names and account information of those Payees
to whom you wish to direct payment, you authorize us to follow the Payment Instructions
that we receive through the payment system. When we receive a payment instruction, you
authorize us to debit your Payment Account and remit funds to the Payee on your behalf.
You will be able to set up the following types of bill payments:
1. Single Payment: You may schedule a payment to be made one time to a Payee.
The payment may be scheduled on a future date, or on the same day that you enter
the Payment Instruction provided you enter the Payment Instruction by the Cutoff
Time.
2. Recurring Payment: You may schedule payments to Payees to be automatically
initiated in a fixed amount on the same scheduled payment frequency. You may
make payments weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly, semi-
annually or annually. If the Scheduled Payment Date does not exist in a certain
month, then the payment will be initiated on the last Business Day of the month.
For example, if you schedule a payment for the 30th of each month, your
payment for the month of February will be initiated on or before the 28th day of
February.
You will be provided a confirmation number for each payment you schedule using Bill
Payment. This number is available on the Personal Payment Schedule prior to the
scheduled Payment Date and on the Payment History screen under the Bill Payment menu
if you need to refer to it in the future. The confirmation number will help us resolve any
questions you may have concerning your transactions.
You may not schedule duplicate payments. A duplicate payment is one that is scheduled to
be made to the same Payee on the same date for the same amount as a previously schedule
payment. A duplicated payment is different from a Recurring Payment. A Recurring
Payment is scheduled for the same amount to the same Payee on a recurring schedule. The
amount of any Single Payment or Recurring Payment shall not exceed $9,999.99. In
addition, a Single Payment to a Payee must be “In Process” (hereinafter defined) before an
additional Single Payment can be scheduled to the same Payee.
While it is anticipated that most transactions will be processed and completed on the next
Business Day after your Scheduled Payment Date, and arrive approximately 3-5 Business
Days after your selected schedule Payment Date, it is understood that due to circumstances
beyond our control, particularly delays in handling and posting payments by slow
responding payees or financial institutions, some transactions may take a day or even a few
days longer to be credited by your Payee to your account. For this reason, it is necessary
that all Scheduled Payment Dates selected by you be no less than five (5) Business Days
before the bill’s actual due date if paid by check and three (3) Business Days before the
bill’s actual due date if paid by electronic funds transfer, not the late date and/or a date in
the grace period. Payment instructions entered after the Cutoff Time or on non-Business
Days will be considered entered in Bill Payment on the next Business Day. For Recurring
Payments, this means that you must allow additional time for months in which weekends
or holidays reduce the number of Business Days between the Recurring Payment date the
bill’s actual due date. If you properly follow the procedures described here in, and we fail
to send a payment according to the Payment Instructions received, we will bear
responsibility for late charges (up to a maximum of $50.00 per scheduled payment per
business Payee.) In any other event, including, but not limited to, choosing a Scheduled
Payment Date less than five (5) Business Days before the bill’s actual due date if paid by
check and three (3) Business Days before the bill’s actual due date if paid by electronic
funds transfer, the risk of incurring and the responsibility for paying all late charges or
penalties shall be borne by you.
We will use our best efforts to make all your payments properly. However, we shall incur
no liability if we are unable to complete any payments initiated by you through Bill
Payment because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:
