5. Image Quality

The image of an item transmitted to Workers Credit Union using the Services must be legible. The image quality of the items must comply with the requirements established from time to time by ANSI, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, or any other regulatory agency, clearing house or association. Workers Credit Union may decline a deposit if the images are deemed illegible in its sole discretion.

Workers Credit Union reserves the right to reject any item transmitted through the Services for endorsements not following this agreement.

7. Receipt of Items

We reserve the right to reject any item transmitted through the Services, at our discretion, without liability to you. We are not responsible for items we do not receive or for images that are dropped during transmission. An image of an item shall be deemed received when you receive a confirmation from Workers Credit Union that we have received the image. Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error free or complete, nor does it mean that the item was accepted for deposit.

8. Availability of Funds

You agree that items transmitted using the Services are not subject to the funds availability requirements of Federal Reserve Board Regulation CC and as such same-day availability for certain items transmitted through the Service will only be available at the discretion of Workers Credit Union. For all items transmitted before 4 P.M. ET on any given business day, Workers Credit Union’s policy is to make the funds from these items available to you on the second business day after the day we process your deposit, with the first $200 available on the first business day of your deposit. Items transmitted through the Services can have their funds held for up to five business days at the discretion of Workers Credit Union in accordance to our published “Longer Delay” policy stated in our Truth and Savings.

9. Disposal of Transmitted Items

Upon your receipt of a confirmation from Workers Credit Union that we have received, and accepted for deposit, the image of an item, you agree to prominently mark the item as “Electronically Presented” or “VOID” and to properly dispose of the item to ensure that it is not represented for payment. And, you agree never to represent the item. You will promptly provide any retained item, or a sufficient copy of the front and back of the item, to Workers Credit Union as requested to aid in the clearing and collection process, to resolve claims by third parties with respect to any item, or for Workers Credit Union’s audit purposes.

10. Deposit Limits

We reserve the right to impose limits on the amount(s) and/or number of deposits that you transmit using the Services and to modify such limits from time to time. New users of the Online Banking Service will be limited to $2,500 per day for the first 60 days and after that will be increased to the limit of $5,000 per day. Workers Credit Union may change the deposit limits based in its sole discretion.

You agree to notify Workers Credit Union of any suspected errors regarding items deposited through the Services right away, and in no event later than 60 days after the applicable Workers Credit Union account statement is sent to you. Unless you notify Workers Credit Union within 60 days, such statement regarding all deposits made through the Services shall be deemed correct, and you are prohibited from bringing a claim against Workers Credit Union for such alleged error.
