DEFINITIONS
The following definitions apply in this Agreement.
"On-line Banking" is the Internet-based service providing access to
your account(s) under the terms set forth in this Internet Banking
Terms and Conditions Agreement
"On-line Account" is a Hoyne Savings Bank account from which you
will be conducting transactions using this Service.
"Business Day" refers to Monday through Saturday, excluding holidays
as determined by us. All On-line transaction requests received after
7:00 p.m. CST , or on a non-Business Day, will be processed
promptly, but may not appear in the online history until the
following Business Day.
“Access ID” is a series of characters you select to identify you to
the service. May also be referred to as User ID.
"Password" is a series of numbers and letters you select that
establishes your connection to the Service in conjunction with the
“Access ID”.
"Time of day" references are to Central Standard Time .
"We," "us" or "our" refer to Hoyne Savings Bank, which offers the
Services provided under this Agreement and holds the accounts
accessed by the Services.
HOURS OF OPERATION
The Services are generally available 24 hours-a-day, 7 days a week,
except during maintenance and upgrade periods which may be routinely
scheduled.
USE OF YOUR ACCESS ID AND PASSWORD
The safety of our customers' accounts and account information is of
paramount importance to us. We go through great lengths to protect
confidentiality and the security of your account, and urge you to do
the same. You agree not to allow anyone to gain access to the
Services or to let anyone know your Password used with the Services.
You agree to assume responsibility for all transactions initiated
through the Services with us to the limits allowed by applicable
law. You agree to routinely change your password at least once every
30 calendar days even if not prompted by us or the service to do so.
While we continue to provide our customers with the level of on-line
security we believe necessary and appropriate, customers who share
their Access-IDs and/or Passwords are giving up the full benefit of
our security measures and legal protections to which they may be
entitled. No Hoyne Savings Bank representative will ever call and
ask for your Access ID or Password.
It is possible that authentication methods other than access ID’s
and passwords may be used by the system. If used, you may be
required to purchase, install or maintain additional authentication
methods.
YOUR LIABILITY IF YOUR PASSWORD HAS BEEN LOST OR STOLEN OR FOR
UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS
If your Password has been lost or stolen, call us AT ONCE.
Telephoning us is the best way of minimizing your losses. You may
also restore the security of your Service by immediately changing
your Password. You could lose all the money in your account. If you
believe your Password has been lost or stolen and you tell us within
2 Business Days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose
no more than $50.00 if someone uses your Password to conduct
unauthorized electronic funds transfers without your permission.
If you do NOT tell us within 2 Business Days after you learn of the
loss or theft of your Password, and we can prove we could have
stopped someone from using your Password to conduct unauthorized
electronic funds transfers 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, tell
us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement
was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the
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 period for a reasonable
period.
If you believe your Password has been lost or stolen or that someone
has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your
permission, call 773-283-0413 or write us at:
4786 N. Milwaukee Avenue
Chicago, IL 60630
BANKING TRANSACTIONS WITH ON-LINE BANKING
In addition to viewing account information, you may use On-line
Banking to conduct the following transactions:
- Transfer funds among your linked checking, savings, money market,
loan and line of credit accounts. Not all accounts or account types
may be eligible to transfer funds to or receive funds from other
accounts or account types. Transfers made during off-line times may
be stored and posted at a later date.

per statement period by pre-authorized or automatic transfer, or by
telephone or On-line Banking.

time to time. By using these services when they become available,
you agree to be bound by the rules that will be made available to
you concerning these services.
BILL PAYMENT SERVICE

device to direct paymentsfrom your designated On-line Bill Pay
Account to third parties you wish to pay that accept Bill Payment
Services. To use this service you must accept a separate agreement
made available to you at the time of enrolling in this service in
addition to accepting this Terms and Conditions Agreement.

as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong
or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the
statement or receipt.
We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you the
FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared. We will
need:
- Your name and account number
- A description of the error or the transfer you are unsure about,
and an explanation concerning why you believe it is an error or need
more information.

question in writing within 10 Business Days from your initial

We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days
after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we
need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate
your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit
your account within 10 Business Days for the amount you think is in
error so that you will have the use of the money during the time it
takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your
complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10
Business Days, we may not credit your account.
For errors involving a transaction that occurred during the first 30
days after the first deposit to the account was made, we may take up
to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question and we may take
up to 20 Business Days to credit your account for the amount you
think is in error.
We will tell you the results within three (3) Business Days after
completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error,
we will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our
investigation.

taken

the payment in a timely manner
- We have received incomplete or inaccurate information from you or
a third party involving the account or transfer
- For changes to the payee's address or account number (unless you
have advised us of the change within 3 Business Days in advance)

your Password or account has occurred or may be occurring, or if you

credit agreement, or any other agreement with us, or if we or you
terminate this Agreement

agreements with you. In no event shall we be liable for damages in
excess of your actual loss due to our failure to complete a
transfer, and we will not be liable for any incidental or
consequential damages.

action to reprocess the transactions that may not have been
completed or to correct incorrect transactions that have been
