Your
Ability to Withdraw Funds. Our policy is to
make funds from your cash deposits available to you
on the first business day after the day we receive your
deposit. Our policy for check
deposits is to make funds available to you not later
than the second business day after the banking day on
which funds are deposited. Once the funds are available,
you can make cash withdrawals or we can use the funds
to pay checks that you have written.
Please remember that even after we have made
funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds,
you are still responsible for checks you deposit that
are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems
involving your account.
For
determining the availability of your deposits, every
day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays and
Federal holidays. If you make a deposit before 3:00
p.m. on a business day that we are open, we will consider
that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if
you make a deposit after 3:00 p.m. or on a day we are
not open, we will consider that the deposit was made
on the next business day that we are open. Your electronic
direct deposits will be available on the day the bank
receives the deposit.
Longer
Delays May Apply. Funds
that you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer
period under the following circumstances:
- We
believe a check that you deposit will not be paid.
- You
deposit checks totaling more than $5,000 on any one
day.
- You
redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
- You
have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last
six months.
- There
is an emergency within the bank, such as a failure
of communications or computer equipment.
- You
request transfer of uncollected funds.

We
will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds
for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the
funds will be available. They will generally be available
no later than the seventh business day after the day of
your deposit.
Special Rules For New Accounts. If you
are a new customer, the following special rules will apply
during the first 30 days your account is open.
Funds from electronic direct deposits into your account
will be available for withdrawal on the day we receive
the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers
and the first $5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's,
certified, teller's, traveler's and federal, state and
local government checks will be available on the first
business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit
meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must
be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit
slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available no later
than the ninth business day after the day of your deposit.
If your deposit of these checks (other than U.S. Treasury
check) is not made in person to one of our employees,
the first $5,000 will not be available until the second
business day after the day of your deposit.
Funds from all other check deposits will be available
on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit.
