Terms and Conditions of Your Account
IMPORTANT ACCOUNT OPENING INFORMATION – Federal law requires us to obtain sufficient information to verify your identity. You may be asked several questions and to provide one or more forms of identification to fulfill this requirement. In some instances we may use outside sources to confirm the information. The information you provide is protected by our privacy policy and federal law.
Dear Credit Union Member:
This brochure contains the Disclosures and Agreements (“Agreement” or “Disclosure and Agreement”) which govern your account(s) with us. Please read this brochure carefully. If you sign your signature card or continue to have an account with us, you agree to the terms and conditions stated herein, our by-laws, and any by-law amendments. You agree to pay the fees we charge and you give us the right to collect any fees, as earned, directly from your account balance. You will receive a separate Schedule of Rates, qualifying balances, and fees if they are not included in this brochure. These separate documents are incorporated by reference herein. If you have any questions, please call us.
This Agreement is subject to applicable federal laws and the laws of the state of California (except to the extent that this Agreement can and does vary such rules or laws).
The purpose of this brochure is to provide you with the terms and conditions governing your accounts with us and give you our funds availability, electronic fund transfers and truth-in-savings policy disclosures.
We may permit some variations from this standard Agreement, but any variations must be agreed to in writing either on our signature card for the account or in some other written form.
As used in this brochure, the words “credit union,” “we,” “our,” and “us” mean the SkyOne Federal Credit Union and the words “you” and “your” mean the owner(s) of the accounts as shown by the most recent signature card on file with us and any “agent” appointed by or on behalf of the owner(s) to sign on the account in a representative capacity.
The word “Card” means the ATM Card or VISA® Check Card issued to you or your joint owner(s) by the Credit Union. The word “ATM” means an Automated Teller Machine. The word “EFT” means any Electronic Funds Transfer other than by check or other paper instrument that is initiated through an electronic terminal, telephone, computer, magnetic tape or other communication device for the purpose of providing cash, debiting, crediting, transferring or inquiring on an account or Remote Access PIN or iSky® Online Banking Password. The words “PIN” or “Access Code” mean a Personal Identification Number which enables you to effect transactions via ATM/VISA® Check Card, Sky Fone (Telephone Banking), iSky Online Banking (Home Banking) or Bill Payment Service. The word “POS” means Point-of-Sale which represents transactions that directly debit (withdraw funds from) your Checking Account only, including your use of the VISA® Check Card as a Debit Card.
LIABILITY – Each of you agrees for yourself (and the person or entity you represent if you sign as a representative of another) to the terms of this Disclosure and Agreement and the Schedule of Rates and the Schedule of Fees that we impose. You authorize us to deduct these fees directly from your account balance. You also agree to pay additional reasonable charges we may impose for services you request whether or not covered by this Agreement. Each of you also agrees to be jointly and individually liable for any account deficit resulting from fees or overdrafts, whether caused by you or another authorized to withdraw from your account, and our costs to collect the deficit including, to the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneys’ fees. You agree that at our option we may suspend services to you if you violate the terms of this Agreement.
DEPOSITS – Any items, other than cash, accepted for deposit (including items drawn “on us”) will be given provisional credit only until collection is final (and actual credit for deposits of, or payable in, foreign currency will be at the exchange rate in effect on final collection in U.S. dollars). We are not responsible for transactions initiated by mail or outside depository until we actually record them. Unless otherwise agreed, you waive any right to receive any original item after it is paid.
WITHDRAWALS – Unless otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, any one of you who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card, including any agents, may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the account balance at any time on forms approved by us. Each of you (until we receive written notice to the contrary) authorizes each other person signing on the signature card to endorse any item payable to you or your order for deposit to your account or any other transaction with us. We may charge against your account a check, even though payment was made before the date of the check, unless you have given us written notice of the postdating in accordance with the California Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). The fact that we may honor withdrawal requests which overdraw the finally collected account balance does not obligate us to do so, unless required by law. Withdrawals will first be made from collected funds, and we may, unless prohibited by law or our written policy, refuse any withdrawal request against uncollected funds, even if our general practice is to the contrary. We reserve the right to refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which is attempted by any method not specifically permitted, which is for an amount less than any minimum withdrawal requirement, or which exceeds any frequency limitation. Even if we honor a nonconforming request, repeated abuse of the stated limitations (if any) may eventually force us to close your account. We will use the date a transaction is completed by us (as opposed to the day you initiate it) to apply the frequency limitations.
CREDIT UNION OFFICIAL CHECKS – Official Checks issued by any office or department of the Credit Union are good for 180 days from the date of issue. After that time, they are considered void. They can be exchanged for replacement checks. However, per California state law (Unclaimed Property Act), financial institutions are required to transfer to the state all monetary instruments which have not been negotiated after three years.
OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNT AND BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION – The following terms and conditions govern the ownership of your accounts with us and your beneficiary designations, if any, on your accounts. We reserve the right to refuse some forms of ownership on any or all accounts with us.
Individual Account – This account is issued to one person who does not intend (merely by opening this account) to create any survivorship rights in any other person.
Joint Account – If more than one person signs the signature card, every person signing the signature card is an owner of the account and the account is held in joint tenancy with right of survivorship. Upon the death of any owner, ownership of the account passes to the surviving joint tenant(s) named on the signature card. All owners agree that all sums now paid in or hereafter paid in by any one owner, including dividends, if any, are and shall be owned by all account owners jointly and equally, regardless of their net contributions, with right of survivorship, and shall be subject to withdrawal or receipt by any one account owner or the survivor(s) of the account owner(s). Any such payment shall be valid and shall discharge the Credit Union from any liability. We are not obligated to inquire as to the source of funds received for deposit to a joint account or to inquire as to the proposed use of any funds withdrawn from the account for the purpose of establishing net contributions. The right of survivorship cannot be changed by will.
Payable on Death (Beneficiary) Designation – If you have made a payable (pay) on death (P.O.D.) designation on the signature card for an account, all sums in the account are payable to you upon your request during your lifetime and upon your death, to your designated P.O.D. payee or if your account is jointly owned, to one or more account owner(s) during their lives and on the death of all of them, to one or more payees then surviving in equal and individual amounts. As between P.O.D. payees, there is no right of survivorship. The beneficiary designation cannot be changed by will.
Totten Trust Account – This account is open “in trust” for the beneficiaries named on the signature card and there is no separate trust document for this type of account. If two or more of you open this account, you own the account jointly with right of survivorship during your lifetime regardless of your net contributions to the account and you have reserved the right to (1) change beneficiaries; (2) change account types or revoke the trust at any time by executing and delivering to us a new signature card; (3) withdraw any sums on deposit including dividends. In the event of your death or, if the account is held by more than one person, the death of your survivor, then and only then, we shall pay the sums in such account to the beneficiary designated on the signature card, if then living (if more than one beneficiary is designated then equally to those beneficiaries living at the date of your death or the death of your survivor), but if there is no surviving beneficiary, we shall pay the sums to your estate or the estate of your survivor. There is no right of survivorship between beneficiaries. The right of survivorship or beneficiary designation cannot be changed by a will.
Trust Account – This type of account is established by a trustee in connection with a separate written trust document. We may require you to provide us with a notarized trust certification, confirming your power as trustee, prior to opening the account. We are not required to request this certification and we have third party protection if we act in good faith and without actual knowledge that the trustee is exceeding his/her powers. We are not required to know, understand, interpret or enforce the terms of any trust document which may be provided to us.
Uniform Transfer to Minors Act (UTMA) Account – This account is utilized when transfers of property to a minor, supervised by an adult (usually a parent acting as a custodian) are made. The custodianship ends when the child reaches legal age. We are not required to administer, monitor or supervise activity on this account. The custodian is opening the account as custodian for the minor named on the signature card or certificate under UTMA. The transfer of money to the minor named on the signature card or certificate, which transfer shall be deemed to include all dividends and any future additions thereto, is irrevocable and is made in accordance with the laws of the State of California governing UTMA transfers. The successor custodian named on the signature card or certificate shall serve if you become unable to act as custodian because you resign or become legally incapacitated.
Fiduciary Accounts – You are duly appointed and acting in the capacity of executor/executrix, administrator/administratrix, guardian or conservator. By the authority vested in you, you are acting individually or jointly, authorized and empowered to transact business of any character including pledging any or all deposits in the account as collateral security for any loans subject to current loan policies.
Organizational Accounts – Such accounts are issued in the name of an organization rather than an individual(s) such as a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, association (club or league). The persons named on the signature card or certificate certify to us that at a regularly held meeting of the organization they were elected or appointed officers of the corporation or organization or the general partners of the partnership and that by virtue of the authority vested in you by the constitution, bylaws or otherwise, any one (1) of the signers, as named on the signature card or certificate, is authorized and empowered to transact business of any nature in the account including the pledge of deposits in the account as collateral security for any loans subject to current loan policies. We reserve the right, however, to require the governing body of the organization to give us a separate authorization telling us who is authorized to act on its behalf. We will honor such an authorization until we actually receive written notice of a change in the governing body.
PLEDGES – Each owner of an account pledges all or any part of the funds in it for any purpose to which we agree. Any pledge of deposits/funds in an account must first be satisfied before the rights of any joint account survivor, pay-on-death beneficiary, or trust account beneficiary becomes effective. For example, if one joint tenant pledges deposits/funds in an account for a debt (i.e. uses it to secure a debt) and then dies, (1) the surviving joint tenant’s rights in the account do not take effect until the debt has been satisfied and (2) the debt may be satisfied with the funds in the account.
STOP PAYMENTS – You must make any stop-payment order in the manner required under the UCC and we must receive it in time to give us a reasonable opportunity to act on it before our stop-payment cutoff time. To be effective, your stop-payment order must precisely identify the number, date and amount of the item, and the payee.
You may stop payment on any item drawn on your account whether you sign the item or not. A release of the stop-payment request may be made only by the person who initiated the stop-payment order.
TELEPHONE TRANSFERS – A telephone transfer of funds from one account to another account with us, if otherwise permitted or arranged for, may be made by the same persons and under the same conditions generally applicable to withdrawals made in writing.
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION – We may change our by-laws and any term of this Agreement and we will give you reasonable notice in writing or by any other method permitted by law. We reserve the right to close your accounts if your membership in this Credit Union terminates. You agree to keep us informed about your current address at all times. Notice from us to any one of you is notice to all of you. We may close your Savings, Checking, Money Market or Certificate Account at any time upon reasonable notice to you and tender the account balance personally or by mail. We reserve the right to close any of these accounts if you misuse the account (such as repeated items returned due to non-sufficient funds or your consistent overdrawing any account) or abuse of your membership privileges. If we close your account(s), we may mail a check to you at the address we currently have on record. We may return deposits and payments, and other items that we receive after your account is closed, without liability to us.
STATEMENTS – You must examine your statement of account with “reasonable promptness.” If you discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any unauthorized payments or alterations, you must promptly notify us of the relevant facts. If you fail to do either of these duties, you will have to either share the loss with us, or bear the loss entirely yourself (depending on whether we exercised ordinary care and, if not, whether we substantially contributed to the loss). The loss could be not only with respect to items on the statement but other items forged or altered by the same wrongdoer. You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and report to us will depend on the circumstances, but that such time will not, in any circumstance, exceed a total of 30 days from when the statement is first made available to you.
You further agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations, forgeries or any other errors in your account within 60 days of when we make the statement available, you cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement, and the loss will be entirely yours. This 60 day limitation is without regard to whether we exercised ordinary care. The limitation in this paragraph is in addition to that contained in the first paragraph of this section.
ACCOUNT TRANSFER – This account may not be transferred or assigned without our prior written consent.
DIRECT DEPOSITS – If, in connection with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in your account which should have been returned to the Federal Government for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of our liability to the Federal Government from this account or from any other account you have with us, without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited by law. We may also use any other legal remedy to recover the amount of our liability.
DORMANT ACCOUNTS – If no monetary activity or no contact from you occurs on an account for a period of 18 months, regardless of the aggregate balance, the account is considered dormant and will be locked-out while we make every attempt to contact you.
FICTITIOUS BUSINESS NAME ACCOUNTS – If the name in which the account is held is fictitious, each owner represents that one or more of the owners have the right to use that name and have fulfilled all legal requirements for using and/or doing business under that name.
ESCHEAT ACCOUNTS – If no monetary activity or no contact from you occurs on an account for a period of three years, regardless of the aggregate balance, California law (Unclaimed Property Act) requires that we transfer the balance of the account to the State Controller’s Office. This is called escheating an account. You may recover the escheated funds by writing to the California State Controller’s Office. (California law governs this and all other applicable aspects of account regulation, regardless of the state of your residency, as the funds are considered to be housed in California.)
RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS – We are not required to honor any restrictive legend on items you write unless we have agreed to the restriction in writing signed by an officer of the Credit Union. Examples of restrictive legends are “must be presented within 90 days” or “not valid for more than $1,000.00.”
FACSIMILE SIGNATURES – You authorize us, at any time, to charge you for all checks, drafts, or other orders, for the payment of money, that are drawn on us regardless of by whom or by what means the facsimile signature(s) may have been affixed so long as they resemble the facsimile signature specimen on the signature card or that are filed separately with us, and contain the required number of signatures for this purpose.
CREDIT VERIFICATION – You agree that we may verify credit and employment history by any necessary means, including preparation of a credit report by a credit reporting agency.
RIGHT TO REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS – You each agree that we may (without prior notice and when permitted by law) charge against and deduct from this account any due and payable debt owed to us now or in the future, by any of you having the right of withdrawal, to the extent of such persons’ or legal entity’s right to withdraw. If the debt arises from a note, “any due and payable debt” includes the total amount of which we are entitled to demand payment under the terms of the note at the time we charge the account, including any balance the due date for which we properly accelerate under the note.
In addition to these contract rights, as a federal credit union, we also have rights under a “statutory lien.” A “lien” on property is a creditor’s right to obtain ownership of the property in the event a debtor defaults on a debt. A “statutory lien” is one created by federal or state statute. Because federal law and regulation provides us with a statutory lien, we are authorized to apply, without prior notice, your deposits, shares and dividends to any debt you owe us, in accord with the statutory lien.
Neither our contract rights nor rights under a statutory lien apply to this account if: (a) it is an Individual Retirement Account or other tax-deferred retirement account, or (b) the debt is created by a consumer credit transaction under a credit card plan (but this does not affect our rights under any consensual security interest), or (c) the debtor’s right of withdrawal arises only in a representative capacity. We will not be liable for the dishonor of any check or draft when the dishonor occurs because we charge and deduct an amount you owe us from your account. You agree to hold us harmless from any claim arising as a result of our exercise of our right to repayment.
AGENTS – An agent is someone who you authorize to have access to your account on your behalf. (We, however, have no duty or agreement whatsoever to monitor or insure that the acts of the agent are for your benefit.) This may be done by allowing your agent to sign on the space as an authorized signer on the signature card, or by separate form (such as a power of attorney). An agent is not an owner of the account. We will allow agents to be appointed only on individual accounts unless each owner of a joint account has executed a separate power of attorney naming an agent. We may refuse to accept an agent, or an agency account.
LEVIES/WITHHOLD ORDERS/JUDGEMENTS/ATTACHMENTS/GARNISHMENTS – Financial institutions are required, based on receipt of any of the above documents, to surrender funds belonging to members in accordance with the amount and date specified.
When we receive a levy or similar order, we immediately notify you in writing (the same date it is received). If we do not receive a release or withdrawal from the levying agency (IRS, Franchise Tax Board, court, etc.) prior to the day the funds are to be remitted, we are obligated to surrender the funds from your account(s) and any accounts on which you may be a joint owner, to the levying agency.
As we are merely the depository institution, and we make no decisions and have no information concerning the merits of the case, any disputes regarding such issues must be addressed to the levying agency, not to the Credit Union.
Funds held in retirement accounts may also be subject to levy, unless the document contains language specifically exempting such accounts or the account is otherwise exempted by law. Additionally, any penalties/loss of dividends due to early certificate withdrawal will apply.
MONITORING AND RECORDING TELEPHONE CALLS – We may monitor or record phone calls for security reasons and to ensure that you receive courteous and efficient service. You consent in advance to any such recording. We need not remind you of our recording before each phone conversation.

RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS
All funds in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA’s) are linked to either IRA savings accounts or IRA certificates. The Credit Union offers Traditional, Roth and Educational IRA’s. Federal regulations governing retirement accounts apply separately from Credit Union policies regarding IRA savings and IRA certificate accounts. For instance, dividend accumulation and compounding are calculated as they would be for corresponding savings and certificate accounts. Additionally, tax laws governing withdrawals from IRA’s have no connection with certificate penalties. Therefore, while it may be permissible according to the IRS to remove funds from an IRA without tax penalties, as long as they are rolled over into another qualified retirement plan within 60 days, you will still be assessed our certificate penalty (90 days’ dividends) on such a withdrawal.
We cannot and will not advise you on any legal and/or tax related matters nor can we advise you whether or not you are qualified to participate in the plan. Such advice should be obtained from an attorney, CPA or tax preparer. We will, however, be happy to discuss our services and provide you with all applicable details thereof.
Finally, we will not accept FAXed requests for any IRA-related matters. On a case-by-case basis, we may FAX you a form, but you must complete it accurately and mail it back to us.
IRA RECHARACTERIZATIONS/CONVERSIONS
Based on the applicable certificate term and amount, a penalty will be assessed for a request for a conversion/recharacterization of a certificate Traditional IRA to or from a Roth IRA during the certificate term, prior to the maturity date.

Compounding frequency – Dividends will be compounded every quarter.
Crediting frequency – Dividends will be credited to your account every quarter. Alternatively, you may choose to have dividends paid to a savings or checking account every month rather than credited to this account.
Minimum balance requirements:
The minimum balance required to open this account is $500.00.
TERMS:
Please refer to our current rate sheet for available terms.
Daily Balance Computation Method:
Dividends are calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day.
Transaction Limitation:
After the account is opened, you may not make deposits or withdrawals into the account until the maturity date stated on the account.
See your plan disclosure if this account is part of an IRA or other tax qualified plan.
Penalties:
Early withdrawal penalties may be imposed for withdrawals before maturity.
- On term certificates, dividends will be paid prior to imposing the penalty and the penalty may be equal to a loss of 90 days dividends. Penalties are calculated on the full amount of the certificate. This may reduce your investment and lower your principal balance.
- Early withdrawal may constitute closure of the certificate.
In certain circumstances such as the death or incompetence of an owner of this account, the law permits, or in some cases requires, the waiver of the early withdrawal penalty. Other exceptions may also apply, for example, if this is part of an IRA or other tax-deferred savings plan.
Withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity – The annual percentage yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain in the account until maturity. A withdrawal will reduce earnings.
Automatically renewable account – This account will automatically renew at maturity. You may prevent renewal if you withdraw the funds in the account at maturity (or within the grace period mentioned below, if any) or we receive written notice from you within the grace period mentioned below, if any. We can prevent renewal if we mail notice to you at least 30 calendar days before maturity. If either you or we prevent renewal, dividends will not accrue after final maturity.
Each renewal term will be the same as the original term, beginning on the maturity date. The dividend rate and annual percentage yield will be the same we offer on new time accounts on the maturity date which have the same term, minimum balance (if any) and other features as the original certificate account.
You will have a grace period of seven calendar days after maturity to withdraw the funds without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.
Grace Period: You will have a grace period of seven calendar days after maturity to withdraw the funds without being charged an early withdrawal penalty, as well as deposit additional funds to the matured certificate if you wish for the funds to remain in the 6-month certificate.

YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS
General
Our policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available
to you on the business day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct
deposits will also be available on the day we receive the deposit. Except
as otherwise described in this Funds Availability Policy, once the funds are
available, you can withdraw them in cash and we will use them to pay items
(e.g. checks, electronic funds transfers, etc.) that attempt to clear 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 5:30 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (“PST”) 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 5:30 p.m. PST,
or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was
made on the next business day we are open.If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold
the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your
account. Those funds will be available on the day they would have been
available if you had deposited the check.Deposits at Automated Teller Machines (“ATMS”)
Funds from any deposits (cash or checks) made at ATMs we do not
own or operate will not be available until the third (3rd) business day
after the day of your deposit.If you make a deposit before 3:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (“PST”)
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.
PST, or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.Longer Delays May Apply
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check
available to you on the same business day of your deposit. Depending on
the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the
third (3rd) business day after the day of your deposit. The first $300 of your
deposits, however, may be available on the same day of your deposit.If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available
on the same day of your deposit, we will notify you at the time you make
your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your
deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to
take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice
or electronically deliver the notice, if you have agreed to receive notices from us in an electronic format, by the business day after we receive your deposit.If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
•We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
•You deposit checks totaling more than $5,525 on any one day.
•You redeposit a check that has been previously returned unpaid.
•You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six (6) months.
•There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.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 (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.
Special Rules for New Accounts
If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply during the first thirty (30) days your account is open.•Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will generally be available on the same business day we receive the deposit.
•Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,525 of a day’s total deposits of cashier’s, certified, teller’s, traveler’s, and federal, state and local government checks will generally be available on the same day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The excess over $5,525 will be available on the seventh (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.
•Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the seventh (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.Special Notice Regarding Endorsement Standards
The federal law dealing with funds availability requires the financial institution’s endorsement area on the back of a check be kept clear or unobstructed. This rule is designed to prevent unnecessary delays in processing your deposits as well as to promote speedier returns of dishonored checks. Only the 1-1/2 inch space from the “trailing edge” (the left edge of the check when it is facing you) can be used by you for endorsements or any other markings.We will not be responsible for any damages incurred in the event you deposit an item which is subsequently returned unpaid by the paying bank and that return is “late” due to markings on the check caused by you or a prior endorser on the back of the check.
In the event that you draw a check on your checking or loan account with us, you are responsible for any delay or misrouting of the check caused by markings placed on the check by you that obscure any depository endorsements placed by us or our agent and you agree to hold us harmless and indemnify us from any liability due to such delay or misrouting.

ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
This Section applies to fund transfers as defined in the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E. To the extent that the terms contained in this Section are different than those in any other agreement or terms of account, this Section shall control and be deemed to modify such other agreements or terms of account.
Indicated below are types of Electronic Fund Transfers we are capable of handling, some of which may not apply to your account. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for the transactions listed. You should keep this notice for future reference.
Your acceptance, signature, retention or use of (or by authorizing another person to sign or use) the ATM/VISA® Check Card, Personal Identification Number (PIN), Sky Fone or iSky® Online Banking Password constitutes an agreement between us and you as described below.
Electronic Fund Transfers Initiated By Third Parties. You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your account and the third party’s account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearing House (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example, your authorization to convert a check or draft to an electronic fund transfer or to electronically pay a returned check or draft charge can occur when a merchant provides you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third party with your account number and credit union information. This information can be found on your check or draft as well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide your credit union and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers. Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:
- Preauthorized credits. You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your checking or savings account(s).
- Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your checking or savings account(s).
- Electronic check or draft conversion. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time electronic payment from your checking account using information from your check or draft to pay for purchases or pay bills.
- Electronic returned check or draft charge. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to initiate an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge in the event a check or draft is returned for insufficient funds.
SKYONE ATM/VISA® CHECK CARD TRANSACTIONS
You may access your account(s) by ATM using your SkyOne ATM/VISA® Check Card and your personal identification number (PIN) or SkyOne ATM/VISA® Check Card and your PIN.
NETWORK TRANSACTIONS
You can do the following:-
- Withdrawals from savings and checking
- Balance inquiries on savings and checking
ATM TRANSACTIONS AT SKYONE FEDERAL CREDIT UNION PROPRIETARY ATMS
(THOSE OWNED AND OPERATED BY SKYONE FEDERAL CREDIT UNION):

Some of these services may not be available at all terminals.
LIMITATIONS ON FREQUENCY AND DOLLAR AMOUNT OF TRANSACTIONS
Provided you have available funds in your account(s), you may withdraw up to a maximum of $500.00 in cash from your savings or checking accounts by use of an ATM within a twenty-four (24) hour period. The minimum cash transaction is $20.00. Some terminals my have lesser limits.
You agree to follow the instructions posted or displayed or given at an ATM.
Types of ATM/ VISA ® Check Card Point-of-Sale Transactions – You may access your checking, savings, or Line of Credit account(s) to purchase goods (in person or by phone), pay for services (in person or by phone), get cash from a merchant, if the merchant permits, or from a participating financial institution, and do anything that a participating merchant will accept.
Point-of-Sale Transactions – dollar limitations – Using your card:
- you may not exceed $2,500.00 in transactions per day
Some merchants or terminals may have lesser limits.
Currency Conversion. When you use your ATM/VISA® Check Card at a merchant that settles in currency other than US dollars, the charge will be converted into the US dollar amount. The currency conversion rate used to determine the transaction amount in US dollars is either a rate selected by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa itself receives, or the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date. The conversion rate in effect on the processing date may differ from the rate in effect on the transaction date or posting date.
SkyOne Federal Credit Union will begin charging an International Service Assessment (ISA) fee for ATM, Debit and Credit Card usage for transactions settled outside the United States of America. The fee will be 0.80% of the transaction amount for single currency transactions that do not require a currency conversion, and 1.00% of the transaction amount for multi-currency transactions that require a currency conversion.
Advisory Against Illegal Use. You agree not to use your card(s) for illegal gambling or other illegal purpose. Display of a payment card logo by, for example, an online merchant does not necessarily mean that transactions are lawful in all jurisdictions in which the cardholder may be located.
For security reasons, there may be limits on the number of those transactions that may be authorized.
ATM services are available for your convenience 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with minor interruptions for end-of-day processing. Point of Sale transactions are available during merchants’ business hours.
Renewal of ATM/VISA® Check Card – For your protection, your ATM/VISA® Check Card is issued with an expiration date. If your account is active and in good standing, upon expiration of your ATM/VISA® Check Card, we may issue you a renewal card. We will not issue a renewal card if your account is not in good standing, if there has been no ATM or VISA® Check Card activity on your account, or if your VISA® Check Card has not been activated prior to expiration of the card.
ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES APPLICABLE TO VISA® CHECK CARD WHEN USED AS A POINT OF SALE DEVICE. By use of your VISA® Check Card with your PIN or sometimes just your VISA® Check Card or VISA® Check Card number at a participating Point of Sale terminal, you authorize us to make withdrawals from your Checking Account for cash or to pay for goods and services. When you do so, you use your VISA® Check Card as a debit card and your VISA® Check Card works much like a check you write on your account. Your VISA® Check Card is not serving as a credit card, which means you may not defer payments of VISA® Check Card transactions. When you use the VISA® Check Card, you must follow the procedures established by the merchant or financial institution. You may be asked to sign a sales slip, withdrawal slip, or other document or just provide your VISA® Check Card number. Some merchants may impose a fee for a VISA® Check Card transaction. We are not liable if a merchant or financial institution does not accept your VISA® Check Card or VISA® Check Card number.
We may debit or place a hold on your Checking Account for a transaction either on the day it is presented to us for payment, by electronic or other means, or on the day we receive notice of the transaction, whichever is earlier.
If a merchant or other financial institution requests an authorization for a transaction you want to conduct, we may place a hold on your Checking Account for the amount authorized. As a result, you will not have access to the funds on hold, other than for the transaction authorized, until the hold expires (up to three (3) business days from the date of the transaction).
You may not stop payment on a VISA® Check Card transaction. Furthermore, in the event of a dispute with a merchant, you may have to settle directly with that merchant. If a merchant misrepresents the quality, price, or warranty of goods or services in which you paid with your Card, you indemnify us for all damages and liability which results from the misrepresentation. If you breach or don’t fulfill any of the terms of this agreement, you also indemnify us for all resulting damages and liability.

ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS
This agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code – Fund Transfers as adopted in the state in which you have your account with us.
Funds from members’ account may be transferred to another financial institution via the use of Wire Transfer. The Credit Union offers both incoming and outgoing wire transfer services. The following provisions apply only to those Funds Transfers as defined in Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code and do not apply to electronic funds transfers governed by Regulation E. In certain circumstances, the Credit Union may require execution of a Request for Wire Transfer. If you have entered into a specific Request for Wire Transfer with the Credit Union, the provisions herein supplement but do not contradict the Request for Wire Transfer. In addition, if Fedwire is used to send or receive a wire transfer, your rights and liabilities will be further governed by Regulation J. All requests must be submitted by 11:00 a.m. for same day processing. Payment orders, cancellations, or amendments received after the cut-off time may be treated as having been received on the next following funds transfer business day and processed accordingly.
- Authorization.
All funds being wired must be available in the account at the time of processing.
If you originate a fund transfer for which Fedwire is used, and you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying number to make payment. We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named.
If we receive a funds transfer for you or for another person authorized to have access to your account, you agree that we are not obligated to provide you with the next-day notice of the receipt of the funds transfer. We will provide you with notification of the receipt of all funds transfers by including such items in the periodic statements which we provide. You may, of course, inquire between receipt of periodic statements whether or not a specific funds transfer has been received. - Security procedures.
We may establish, from time to time, security procedures to verify the authenticity of a payment order. You agree that the authenticity of payment orders may be verified using that security procedure unless you notify us in writing that you do not agree with this practice. In that event, we shall have no obligation to accept any payment order from you or other authorized parties on the account. - Provisional Payment
You agree to be bound by automated clearing house association rules. These rules provide, among other things, that payments made to you, or originated by you, are provisional until final settlement is made through a Federal Reserve Bank or payment is otherwise made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code. If we do not receive such payment, we are entitled to a refund from you in the amount credited to your account and the party originating such payment will not be considered to have paid the amount so credited. If we receive a credit to an account you have with us by wire or ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the payment order or credit. - Additional Terms and Conditions for Wire Transfers
The Credit Union may, in its sole discretion, reject any funds transfer request which: (1) exceeds the collected and available funds on deposit in your designated account(s); (2) is not authenticated to the Credit Union’s satisfaction or which the Credit Union reasonably believes may not be authorized by you; (3) contains incorrect, incomplete, or ambiguous information; or (4) involves funds subject to a lien, hold, dispute or legal process pending their withdrawal. You understand and agree that the Credit Union shall incur no liability for any loss occasioned by the Credit Union’s refusal to accept any funds transfer order.
The Credit Union shall have the right to charge the amount of any funds transfer request to any of your accounts at the Credit Union in the event that no account is designated, or in the event that a designated account has insufficient collected funds to cover the amount of a funds transfer request. The Credit Union may charge a service charge for services relating to the sending or receiving of the funds transfer request. Such charge(s) are set forth in the Credit Union’s Schedule of Service Charges, which was previously provided to you and which is incorporated by this reference.
Except as expressly prohibited by applicable state and federal laws and regulations, you understand and agree that the Credit Union will not be liable for any loss or liability arising from: (1) any unauthorized transfer or interest thereon (including, but not limited to, fraudulent transfers and/or a transfer which the Credit Union failed to abide by the agreed upon security procedures) which you fail to report to the Credit Union within thirty (30) days after your receipt of notification of the transfer; (2) any negligent or intentional action or inaction on the part of any person not within the Credit Union’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, the failure of other financial institutions to provide accurate or timely information; (3) the failure of other financial institutions to accept a funds transfer order; (4) your negligent or intentional action or inaction and/or breach of this Agreement; (5) any ambiguity or inaccuracy in any instruction given to the Credit Union by you or your authorized agent; or (6) any error, failure or delay in execution of any funds transfer instruction, or cancellation or amendment caused by circumstances beyond the Credit Union’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, any computer or communication facilities malfunction.
Except as otherwise provided by applicable state or federal laws or regulations, the Credit Union’s liability for any negligent or intentional action or inaction in connection with any funds transfer request shall be limited to your direct loss and payment of interest. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE CREDIT UNION BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES WHICH YOU MAY SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR ANY FUNDS TRANSFER REQUEST.
ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES APPLICABLE TO PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS
If you have requested a pre-authorized payment from your account, the following information applies to you.
- Initial Authorization. You can get copies of the pre-authorized payment documentation from the third party payee at the time you give them the initial authorization. You cannot place a stop payment on ATM, debit or Visa card authorizations.
- Right to stop payment and procedure for doing so. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your account, you can stop any of these payments one time. Here is how:
Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure in time for us to receive your request 3 business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we will require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after you call or the stop payment order will cease to be binding. - Right to revoke authorization of pre-authorized payments. If you revoke the authorization for a third party to make pre-authorized payments from your account, you must attest you are an authorized signer or otherwise have the authority to act on the account and that the debit being revoked was not originated with fraudulent intention by you or any person acting in concert with you. You must acknowledge the statement is true and correct. You are authorizing us to revoke or cancel the entire pre-authorized payment arrangement with that third party payee. Please refer to our separate fee schedule for our revoked authorization fee.
- Notice of varying amounts. If these regular payments vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell you, 10 days before each payment, when it will be made and how much it will be. (You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would fall outside certain limits that you set.)
If you stop payment on a pre-authorized payment from your account and that payment is a recurring debit, the stop payment only applies to a specific payment or a specific date for a specific amount. You are not revoking authorization for the third party to receive the recurring debit. The stop payment order remains in effect until you withdraw the stop payment order. - Liability for failure to stop payment of preauthorized transfer. If you order us to stop one of these payments 3 business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
Associated Fees: If your account does not have sufficient funds to pay a pre-authorized payment, the request will be returned to the third party and your account will be charged a non-sufficient funds fee as stated in our Schedule of Service Charges.
Refer to the Schedule of Service Charges for the amount we will charge you for each stop-payment order or written statement of unauthorized debit you give.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION’S LIABILITY
Liability for failure to make transfers. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
- If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
- If you have an overdraft line and the transfer would exceed the credit limit.
- If the automated teller machine where you are making the transfer does not have enough cash.
- If the terminal or system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
- If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
- Your ATM card, VISA® Check Card, ATM PIN, or VISA® Check Card PIN has been reported lost or stolen, has expired, is damaged so that the ATM cannot read the encoding strip, is retained by us at your request, or because your ATM/VISA® Check Card PIN has been repeatedly entered incorrectly.
- Failure to complete the transaction if done to protect the security of your account and/or the electronic terminal system.
- We received incorrect or incomplete information from you or from third parties (e.g. U.S. Treasury, an automated clearing house or a terminal owner).
- There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.
- If there are postal delays or processing delays by the payee.
- If you are in default on an account you are attempting a transfer.
- If you fail to properly follow Sky Fone Telephone Banking or iSky® Online Banking or software instructions on how to make a transfer or payment.
- If you fail to authorize a payment soon enough for the payment to be made, transmitted, received or credited by the payee.
- If there is a malfunction in your personal computer, browser or software.
- If the transfer could not be completed due to system unavailability or a telecommunication or service provider failure.
CONFIDENTIALITY
We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
- where it is necessary for completing transfers; or
- in order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
- in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
- as explained in our separate Privacy Policy.
MEMBER LIABILITY
YOU MAY BE LIABLE for all authorized or unauthorized uses of a Card, PIN or iSky® Online Banking, Sky Fone Password.
UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS
(a) Consumer liability.
- Generally. Tell us at once if you believe your card and/or PIN has been lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check or draft. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you believe your card and/or PIN has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or PIN you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card and/or code without your permission. Also, if you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or PIN without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers made by card, PIN or other means 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 periods.
* Limited Liability for ATM/VISA® Check Card. Your liability is further limited if your card can be used to initiate a transaction for which you are not required to provide identifying information, such as a Personal Identification Number. You could lose all the money in your account. Your liability for the unauthorized use of your card will be no more than $50 if you notify us of the unauthorized use.
In addition, when used in point-of-sale transactions, and unless you have been grossly negligent or have engaged in fraud, you will not be liable for any unauthorized transactions if your card is lost or stolen. This limit on liability does not apply to ATM transactions or to transactions using your PIN which are not processed by VISA®.
If you fail to notify us of an unauthorized use that appears on a periodic statement within 60 days of our transmittal of the statement, and we can establish that we could have prevented the unauthorized use if you had notified us within this period, you will be liable for each unauthorized transfer (other than VISA® point-of-sale transactions) that occurs after the close of the 60 days and before you give us notice.
If you fail to notify us because of extenuating circumstances beyond your control that contributed to your delay in notifying us, such as a serious physical impairment or hospitalization, this time period may be extended.
(b) Contact in event of unauthorized transfer. If you believe your card and/or PIN has been lost or stolen, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure. You should also call the number or write to the address listed in this brochure if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check or draft without your permission.
ERROR RESOLUTION NOTICE
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers, Call or Write us at the telephone number or address listed on the back of this brochure, 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 the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.
- Tell us your name and account number (if any).
- Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
- Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (5 business days for ATM/VISA® Check Card point-of-sale transactions processed by Visa and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction, or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (5 business days for ATM/VISA® Check Card point-of-sale transactions processed by Visa and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) 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. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account with us before this account is opened.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation and reverse any provisional credit applied to your account.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
If you believe your Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been lost or stolen or that an unauthorized transfer from any of your Accounts has occurred or may occur, contact SkyOne Federal Credit Union immediately.

NOTICE OF ATM/NIGHT DEPOSIT
FACILITY USER PRECAUTIONSAs with all financial transactions, please exercise discretion when using an automated teller machine (ATM) or night deposit facility. For your own safety, be careful. The following suggestions may be helpful.
- Prepare for your transactions at home (for instance, by filling out a deposit slip) to minimize your time at the ATM or night deposit facility.
- Mark each transaction in your account record, but not while at the ATM or night deposit facility. Always save your ATM receipts. Don’t leave them at the ATM or night deposit facility because they may contain important account information.
- Compare your records with the account statements you receive.
- Don’t lend your ATM card to anyone.
- Remember, do not leave your card at the ATM. Do not leave any documents at a night deposit facility.
- Protect the secrecy of your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Protect your ATM card as though it were cash. Don’t tell anyone your PIN. Don’t give anyone information regarding your ATM card or PIN over the telephone. Never enter your PIN in any ATM that does not look genuine, has been modified, has a suspicious device attached, or is operating in a suspicious manner. Don’t write your PIN where it can be discovered. For example, don’t keep a note of your PIN in your wallet or purse.
- Prevent others from seeing you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their view.
- If you lose your ATM card or if it is stolen, promptly notify us. You should consult the other disclosures you have received about electronic fund transfers for additional information about what to do if your card is lost or stolen.
- When you make a transaction, be aware of your surroundings. Look out for suspicious activity near the ATM or night deposit facility, particularly if it is after sunset. At night, be sure that the facility (including the parking area and walkways) is well lighted. Consider having someone accompany you when you use the facility, especially after sunset. If you observe any problem, go to another ATM or night deposit facility.
- Don’t accept assistance from anyone you don’t know when using an ATM or night deposit facility.
- If you notice anything suspicious or if any other problem arises after you have begun an ATM transaction, you may want to cancel the transaction, pocket your card and leave. You might consider using another ATM or coming back later.
- Don’t display your cash; pocket it as soon as the ATM transaction is completed and count the cash later when you are in the safety of your own car, home, or other secure surrounding.
- At a drive-up facility, make sure all the car doors are locked and all of the windows are rolled up, except the driver’s window. Keep the engine running and remain alert to your surroundings.
- We want the ATM and night deposit facility to be safe and convenient for you. Therefore, please tell us if you know of any problem with a facility. For instance, let us know if a light is not working or there is any damage to a facility. Please report any suspicious activity or crimes to both the operator of the facility and the local law enforcement officials immediately.

With a court order- This account is established per court order; the order will approve the contract and appoint a trustee. The trustee will normally be the parent or guardian. A copy of the court order must be provided to the Credit Union by the trustee or employer. If created by the court, the trust will continue to be monitored and controlled by the court. If a court order is presented, it must be reviewed to ensure that the account is established and maintained as per the order.
Without a court order- The account must be established by one parent or legal guardian.
Withdrawals are not allowed, unless the following occurs
•Account is being closed upon the minor reaching the age of 18.
•Account is being closed and funds are taken to another institution.TRUST ACCOUNTS
This type of account is established by a trustee in connection with a separate written trust document. In your capacity as a trustee, you may open an account to hold the funds of your trust and be named as trustee on our trust account application (membership application). You acknowledge that the account is governed by the terms and conditions in this Agreement and by the terms and conditions set forth in the trust account application that you will be asked to sign when the account is opened.
A person named as a trustee on the trust account application has the same rights, responsibilities and liabilities as an owner of an account under this Agreement to open, change, add or close an account or service. Each trustee understands that any trustee acting alone may make changes to the account, transact on the account, and/or close the account, and that his or her signature on the trust account application, or continued use of an account or service, confirms his or her agreement to any later change, addition or closure of an account and/or service by any other trustee on the account. While any trustee may change, add to or close the account and/or a service acting alone, we may require all trustees to consent in writing to the addition or removal of any trustee to or from the account. All trustees agree that we have no duty to notify the trustees of the account of any transaction, change, addition to or closure of an account or service by any trustee acting alone.
We may require you to provide us with a notarized trust certification confirming your power as a trustee prior to opening the account. We are not required to know, understand, interpret, or enforce the terms of your written trust document.
1.The undersigned, as Trustee(s) for funds for the above referenced accounts are controlled by the Trust Instrument entitled Living Trust, executed on (month, day, year), requests and authorizes the Credit Union to establish a trust account on the terms and conditions set forth below and the Trustee(s) on behalf of the Trust and with the Trustor(s) named below agree to conform to the terms and conditions contained within the Credit Union’s Truth-in-Savings Disclosure, if applicable. This account shall be governed by applicable state, federal and local laws and regulations, and the articles of incorporation, Charter, bylaws, rules, and regulations and practices of the Credit Union, each as amended from time to time.
2.If this is a Revocable Trust, one or more Trustor(s) is/are member(s) of the Credit Union. If this is an Irrevocable Trust, either the Trustor or Beneficiary must be members or in the case of multiple Trustors or beneficiaries, all the Trustor(s) or Beneficiaries must be members in the Credit Union. All accounts opened in the name of the Trust belong solely to the Trust. No transfer of voting rights or other membership privilege is permitted by virtue of a transfer of shares. Accounts are not transferable, as defined in 12 CFR Part 204. It is understood that the Trust under this Account Agreement has no voting rights at any membership meeting, although the individual member/Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) retain their personal voting rights if they retain individual membership at the Credit Union.
3.THE CREDIT UNION WILL NOT ACCEPT A COPY OF THE TRUST INSTRUMENT AND SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR ITS CONTENTS. The Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) — not the Credit Union — assume full responsibility for enforcing the provisions of the Trust Instrument.
4.Trustee(s) affirm that successor Trustee(s) is/are bound under the Trust Instrument to serve, and are authorized and fully qualified to act as Trustee(s) in the event that all of the Trustee(s) named above resign, die, become incapacitated or otherwise become unable to act as Trustee(s) of the Trust.
5.Trust account agreements will not be approved unless successor Trustee(s) are designated on the Trust Account Agreement by their Name, Date of Birth and SSN.
6.Any deposit account (EXCEPT INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS — IRA) can be held in trust. The Credit Union is merely a depository for the funds held in trust. Establishing an account that is to be included in the Trust is the same as establishing any other account. Only the Trustees who have signed the Trustee’s Account Agreement can transact on the account. Any subsequent account(s) opened at the Credit Union in the name of the Trustee will be governed by this Application and the terms and conditions herein.
7.In the event that all Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) and successor Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) die, resign, become incapacitated, refuse to act or the Credit Union receives conflicting instructions, the Credit Union reserves the right to interplead any and all funds held in accounts opened under this Application and Agreement and to deduct its attorneys’ fees for the interpleader action from the Trust account funds.
8.If there is a change in the parties or terms of Trust, including, but not limited to, a change in Trustor(s)/Trustee(s), or a change of address of Trustor(s)/Trustee(s), all Trustor(s)/ Trustee(s) agree to execute a new “Trust Application and Agreement.” Such change shall not be effective until the Credit Union has received a properly completed and executed “Trust Application and Agreement” and has had a reasonable opportunity to act on it. In the event of a change of address of Trustor(s)/Trustee(s), the Trustee(s) agree to notify the Credit Union promptly of such change(s).
9.The Trustee(s) certify that they are duly appointed under the Trust Instrument and that by the authority vested in them under the Trust Instrument, they, acting alone or in concert, are authorized and empowered to transact business of any kind in connection with the trust’s accounts at the Credit Union. It is agreed that any transaction by the named Trustee(s) acting alone or in concert shall be valid and discharge the Credit Union from any liability. Trustee(s) agree that any account opened at the Credit Union on behalf of the Trust shall be governed by the terms of this Account Agreement as well as the Credit Union’s Bylaws, additional account agreements and Truth-in-Savings Disclosures, which are incorporated herein by reference.
10.Trustee(s) may authorize the transaction of any business on accounts held at the Credit Union in the name of the Trust by their oral or written instruction to the Credit Union. Trustee(s) may obtain funds from the Trust’s accounts in their names or the names of third parties upon Trustee(s) written or oral instruction.
11.If the Trustee(s) named in this Account Agreement borrow from the Credit Union and the Trust Instrument must be examined by a third party (for example, a title company), the Credit Union agrees to forward a copy of the Trust Instrument from the Trustee(s) to a third party only if Trustee(s) present a sealed envelope, containing the Trust Instrument to the Credit Union. The Credit Union will not accept copies of the Trust Instrument, which are not in a sealed envelope. Further, the Credit Union will not keep any Trust Instruments in its files or be liable for the contents of a Trust Instrument. The Trustee(s) shall sign on a form designated by the Credit Union that the Credit Union has received the Trust Instruments in a sealed envelope when the Trustee(s) present(s) the Trust instruments to the Credit Union.
12.Trustee(s) agree that if they borrow from the Credit Union and use Trust assets as collateral, then the Trustor(s) or the Trustee(s), as members of the Credit Union, will, by signing all documents relating to the loan, obligate themselves as individuals in addition to the signatures of the Trustee(s) on behalf of the Trust.
13.Trustee(s) agree to promptly notify the Credit Union if any of the Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) die or become incapacitated. Prior to any successor Trustee(s) transacting business on accounts held at the Credit Union in the name of the Trust (including any withdrawal pursuant to Section 17 below), the successor Trustee(s) must provide the Credit Union with either a letter of resignation signed by the existing Trustee(s) or a certified copy of the death certificate for the Trustee(s). The successor Trustee(s) must complete a new Application and Agreement as well as a Certification of Trust. Death, resignation or incapacitation of any Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) shall not revoke the authority of the Credit Union to act under the Account Agreement until written notice of death, resignation or incapacitation has been presented to the Credit Union and the Credit Union has reasonable opportunity to act on it. However, upon presentation of a certified copy of Trustee(s) death certificate(s), resignation or judicial declaration(s) of incapacity, the Credit Union is authorized to act upon designated successor Trustee(s) instructions in accordance with the terms of this Account Agreement.14.Successor Trustee(s) shall close all accounts opened under this Account Agreement within 90 days after receiving notification of death, resignation or incapacity of the Trustee(s). The Credit Union is authorized, but not required, to close any accounts opened under this Account Agreement upon the 91 day after receiving notice of the Trustee(s) death(s), and mail a check to the designated successor Trustee(s), for the balance of the account and made payable to the designated successor Trustor(s) /Trustee(s) or the above-named Trust. The parties may be able to maintain the Trust accounts at the Credit Union under a new Application and Agreement.
15.Trustor(s) and Trustee(s) acknowledge and agree that the Credit Union’s sole obligation to the Trustor(s)/Trustee(s) is a depository institution and is a debtor/creditor relationship and nothing in this Application and Agreement or in the Trust Instrument shall be construed to impose any duties or obligations whatsoever upon the Credit Union as a Trustee or other fiduciary under the Trust Instrument or otherwise.
16.All Trustor(s) and Trustee(s) hereby agree for the Trust, themselves and all Trust beneficiaries for the life of the Trust and the statutory life of any cause of action involving any account of the Trust to indemnify and hold harmless the Credit Union from any and all claims, suits, actions, damages, judgments, costs, charges and expenses, including, but not limited to, court costs and attorney’s fees, resulting from any and all liability, loss and damage of any nature whatsoever that the Credit Union shall or may sustain resulting from the establishment, maintenance and transaction of any business on any Trust account at this Credit Union. The Trustor(s) and Trustee(s) on behalf of the Trust agree to pay any necessary expenses, attorney’s fees or costs incurred in the enforcement of the Application and Agreement.
17.Trustor(s) and Trustee(s) acknowledge and agree that the Credit Union is relying upon the statements, representations and warranties made by the Trustor(s) and Trustee(s) contained in the Application and Agreement, and that the Credit Union shall not be responsible in any way for verifying either the existence, validity or legality of the Trust itself, or the authority or powers of the Trustee(s) under the governing Trust Instrument to establish, maintain or transact any business on the Trust accounts. The Credit Union reserves the right at any time to require the Trustee(s) to execute and provide a Certification of Trust pursuant to California Probate Code Section 18100.5, in form and substance acceptable to the Credit Union, affirming the existence of the Trust and the authority and powers of the Trustee(s) thereunder.
18.The Application and Agreement incorporates the full and complete understanding concerning accounts, and transaction of business thereon at the Credit Union for the above named Trust.REPRESENTATIVE PAYEE ACCOUNTS
If you open an account as a “representative payee” for someone who receives Social Security payments or other federal benefits, you agree not to permit any deposits to the account other than the designated payments; you agree that you will not comingle your funds and the beneficiary’s funds. We are not required to monitor account activity and determine whether you deposit other funds or whether any withdrawals or transfers from the account are for the support of the person for whose benefit the funds are paid. This person is called the beneficiary. If the beneficiary dies, you must promptly notify us and stop all further deposits to and withdrawals from the account. If the Social Security Administration or other federal agency demands that we return deposits made on or after the beneficiary’s death and the account does not have enough funds to pay the demand, we may take the funds from any other share account you or the beneficiary owns.
CONSERVATOR OR GUARDIAN
This account type is established when a person is legally appointed by a court to manage the financial affairs of another person (an inactive account owner). The court will issue legal documents specifying various court instructions regarding the conservator’s or guardian’s authority and if additional court orders are required for withdrawals or changes. A Conservatorship or Guardianship may only be established if the ward/minor is an existing member.
ESTATE ACCOUNT
An account is converted to an estate when an owner (existing member) has died. A court will appoint an executor or administrator to control and disburse the decedent’s Estate.
An Employee Identification Number (EIN) is assigned to the Estate; therefore, an existing membership/share must be closed and transferred to a new Estate membership with the estate tax identification number. Earned interest will be reported to the Estate, who is listed as the Primary owner of the membership.OTHER FIDUCIARY ACCOUNTS
Accounts may be opened, converted or maintained by a person acting in a fiduciary capacity. A fiduciary is not an owner of an account, but is someone who is appointed to act on behalf of and for the benefit of another. A fiduciary account may be established and maintained by a person or persons named as a trustee under a written trust agreement or as an executor, administrator, conservator, or guardian under court orders. We reserve the right to require any documents we determine to be reasonable under the circumstances to evidence that the person claiming to be a fiduciary is legally authorized to open and use the account, including withdrawing the funds. We do not have to permit any withdrawal from the account until we receive all requested documents. Funds in a fiduciary account may not be pledged as security for any loan.
Unless prohibited by law, we may refuse, with or without cause, to establish a fiduciary account.
You acknowledge and understand that we have no duty to and will not monitor the activities of the fiduciary(ies), and agree that we will not be held responsible for any breach of fiduciary duty.ORGANIZATIONAL ACCOUNTS
If you request to open an Organizational Account, you affirm that you are duly authorized to act on behalf of the organization and agree to provide any legal documentation evidencing the affirmed information at the time the account is established and on an ongoing basis, upon our request. The organization also agrees to provide personally identifying information for one person with significant managerial control (e.g. CEO, CFO, Managing Member, etc.) and owners of the organization, in addition to all persons named as authorized signers. In addition, the organization understands that all members of the organization must be eligible for membership.
We may accept and/or endorse checks or other items made payable to the Organization named on the Organization Application (membership application), which we receive for deposit.SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP
If you request to open a sole proprietorship account also known as “doing business as” (DBA) account with us, you affirm that you are the sole proprietor named on the Sole Proprietor/DBA application (membership application) and the fictitious business name statement, and have the right to use that name and have fulfilled all legal requirements for using and/or doing business under that name; you agree to provide any legal documentation evidencing the affirmed information at the time the account is established and on an ongoing basis, upon our request.
We may accept and/or endorse checks or other items made payable to you or the sole proprietorship named on the membership application, which we receive for deposit.Addendum Effective 9/1/2020

Dividend period – For this account type, the dividend period is monthly. For example, the beginning date of the first dividend period of the calendar year is January 1, and the ending date of such dividend period is January 31.

The following changes apply to SkyOne’s All-In-One Disclosure, under Funds Availability, section titled YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS dated December 16, 2010. Changes effective July 1, 2020 are in bold italics.
GENERAL
Our policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available to you on the business day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will also be available on the day we receive the deposit. Except as otherwise described in this Funds Availability Policy, once the funds are available, you can withdraw them in cash and we will use them to pay items (e.g. checks, electronic funds transfers, etc.) that attempt to clear 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 5:30 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (“PST”) 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 5:30 p.m. PST, or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.
If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account. Those funds will be available on the day they would have been available if you had deposited the check.
DEPOSITS AT AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINES (“ATMS”)
Funds from any deposits (cash or checks) made at ATMs we do not own or operate will not be available until the third (3rd) business day after the day of your deposit.If you make a deposit before 3:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (“PST”) 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. PST, or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.
LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the same business day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the third (3rd) business day after the day of your deposit. The first $300 of your deposits, however, may be available on the same day of your deposit.If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the same day of your deposit, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice
or electronically deliver the notice, if you have agreed to receive notices from us in an electronic format, by the business day after we receive your deposit.If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
•We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
•You deposit checks totaling more than $5,525 on any one day.
•You redeposit a check that has been previously returned unpaid.
•You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six (6) months.
•There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.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 (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.
SPECIAL RULES FOR NEW ACCOUNTS
If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply during the first thirty (30) days your account is open.
•Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will generally be available on the same business day we receive the deposit.•Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,525 of a day’s total deposits of cashier’s, certified, teller’s, traveler’s, and federal, state and local government checks will generally be available on the same day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The excess over $5,525 will be available on the seventh (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.
•Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the seventh (7th) business day after the day of your deposit.
SPECIAL NOTICE REGARDING ENDORSEMENT STANDARDS
The federal law dealing with funds availability requires the financial institution’s endorsement area on the back of a check be kept clear or unobstructed. This rule is designed to prevent unnecessary delays in processing your deposits as well as to promote speedier returns of dishonored checks. Only the 1-1/2 inch space from the “trailing edge” (the left edge of the check when it is facing you) can be used by you for endorsements or any other markings.We will not be responsible for any damages incurred in the event you deposit an item which is subsequently returned unpaid by the paying bank and that return is “late” due to markings on the check caused by you or a prior endorser on the back of the check.
In the event that you draw a check on your checking or loan account with us, you are responsible for any delay or misrouting of the check caused by markings placed on the check by you that obscure any depository endorsements placed by us or our agent and you agree to hold us harmless and indemnify us from any liability due to such delay or misrouting.
Addendum Effective 1/1/2019
The following applies to SkyOne’s All-In-One Disclosure, under Truth in Savings, section titled COMMON FEATURES dated December 16, 2010. Changes effective January 1, 2019.
MEMBER RESTRICTION POLICY
Purpose:
This policy establishes limitations and restrictions of services for members who are considered to not be in “good standing” with SkyOne Federal Credit Union. The policy also protects Credit Union directors, employees, members, volunteers, and vendors (collectively Credit Union Related Parties) from abusive members or other persons.
This policy shall extend to any member “not in good standing” who seeks member services directly or indirectly through a SkyOne account, any person who has access to SkyOne services directly or indirectly through a member, or a member or other person’s conduct through the use of mobile, ATM or electronic devices, or through any shared network.
SkyOne will not tolerate members or other persons who are abusive in any way. Our intent is not to restrict anyone’s rights and freedom, but rather to address certain unacceptable conduct or abusive account behavior to assure the rights and protections of the Credit Union and Credit Union Related Parties.
Actions:
Any combination or all the following restrictions may be imposed by the management of the Credit Union against a member or other person who has engaged in abusive conduct, failed to comply with the terms and conditions of any lawful obligations with the Credit Union and/or causes, or can potentially cause the Credit Union a loss.

Addendum Effective 6/1/2018
The following changes apply to SkyOne’s All-In-One Disclosure, under Truth in Savings, section titled CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS dated December 16, 2010. Changes effective June 1, 2018 are in bold italics.
CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS
Rate Information: The dividend rate and annual percentage yield for your Certificate accounts will be declared on a monthly basis. Check our current Certificate rates. After opening the term certificate account, the dividend rate will be paid until first maturity. If our certificate rates go up any time during the original term of your certificate, you may request a one-time bump-up rate for the remainder of the original term by notifying SkyOne. The one-time bump-up rate only applies to certificates with terms of 24 months or longer and will not be retroactive. For additional information, please refer to our Rates Page.
Compounding frequency – Dividends will be compounded every quarter.
Crediting frequency – Dividends will be credited to your certificate account every quarter. Alternatively, you may choose to have dividends paid monthly to your certificate, but they must be transferred to a savings or checking account every month rather than credited to your certificate account.
Withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity – The annual percentage yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain in the account until maturity. A withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity will reduce earnings.
Minimum balance requirements:
The minimum balance required to open this account is $1,000.00.TERMS:
Please refer to our current rate sheet for available terms.Daily Balance Computation Method:
Dividends are calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day.Transaction Limitation:
After the account is opened, you may not make deposits or withdrawals into the account until the maturity date stated on the account.
See your plan disclosure if this account is part of an IRA or other tax qualified plan.Penalties:
Early withdrawal penalties may be imposed for withdrawals before maturity.- Certificate terms from 6 months to one year, dividends will be paid prior to imposing the penalty and the penalty may be equal to a loss of 90 days dividends. Penalties are calculated on the full amount of the certificate. This may reduce your investment and lower your principal balance.
- Certificate terms greater than one year, dividends will be paid prior to imposing the penalty and the penalty may be equal to a loss of 180 days dividends. Penalties are calculated on the full amount of the certificate. This may reduce your investment and lower your principal balance.
- Early withdrawal may constitute closure of the certificate.
In certain circumstances such as the death or incompetence of an owner of this account, the law permits, or in some cases requires, the waiver of the early withdrawal penalty. Other exceptions may also apply, for example, if this is part of an IRA or other tax-deferred savings plan.
Automatically renewable account – This account will automatically renew at maturity. You may prevent renewal if you withdraw the funds in the account at maturity (or within the grace period mentioned below, if any) or we receive written notice from you within the grace period mentioned below, if any. We can prevent renewal if we mail notice to you at least 30 calendar days before maturity. If either you or we prevent renewal, dividends will not accrue after final maturity.
Each renewal term will be the same as the original term, beginning on the maturity date. The dividend rate and annual percentage yield will be the same we offer on new time accounts on the maturity date which have the same term, minimum balance (if any) and other features as the original certificate account. If the balance of your certificate is below the required minimum balance in the account at the time of renewal, the certificate will be closed and the funds placed in your Primary Savings account.
You will have a grace period of seven calendar days after maturity to withdraw the funds without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.Addendum Effective 8/1/2016
The following changes apply to SkyOne’s All-In-One Disclosure, under Truth in Savings, section titled CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS dated December 16, 2010. Changes effective August 1, 2016 are in bold italics.
CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS
Rate Information: The dividend rate and annual percentage yield for your Certificate accounts will be declared on a monthly basis. Check our current Certificate rates. After opening the term certificate account, the dividend rate will be paid until first maturity. If our certificate rates go up any time during the original term of your certificate, you may request a one-time bump-up rate for the remainder of the original term by notifying SkyOne. The bump-up rate only applies to certificates with terms of 24 months or longer and will not be retroactive. For additional information, please refer to our Rates Page.
Compounding frequency – Dividends will be compounded every quarter.
Crediting frequency – Dividends will be credited to your certificate account every quarter. Alternatively, you may choose to have dividends paid monthly to your certificate, but they must be transferred to a savings or checking account every month rather than credited to your certificate account.
Withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity – The annual percentage yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain in the account until maturity. A withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity will reduce earnings.
Minimum balance requirements:
The minimum balance required to open this account is $500.00.TERMS:
Please refer to our current rate sheet for available terms.Daily Balance Computation Method:
Dividends are calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day.Transaction Limitation:
After the account is opened, you may not make deposits or withdrawals into the account until the maturity date stated on the account.
See your plan disclosure if this account is part of an IRA or other tax qualified plan.Penalties:
Early withdrawal penalties may be imposed for withdrawals before maturity.- Certificate terms from 6 months to one year, dividends will be paid prior to imposing the penalty and the penalty may be equal to a loss of 90 days dividends. Penalties are calculated on the full amount of the certificate. This may reduce your investment and lower your principal balance.
- Certificate terms greater than one year, dividends will be paid prior to imposing the penalty and the penalty may be equal to a loss of 180 days dividends. Penalties are calculated on the full amount of the certificate. This may reduce your investment and lower your principal balance.
- Early withdrawal may constitute closure of the certificate.
In certain circumstances such as the death or incompetence of an owner of this account, the law permits, or in some cases requires, the waiver of the early withdrawal penalty. Other exceptions may also apply, for example, if this is part of an IRA or other tax-deferred savings plan.
Automatically renewable account – This account will automatically renew at maturity. You may prevent renewal if you withdraw the funds in the account at maturity (or within the grace period mentioned below, if any) or we receive written notice from you within the grace period mentioned below, if any. We can prevent renewal if we mail notice to you at least 30 calendar days before maturity. If either you or we prevent renewal, dividends will not accrue after final maturity.
Each renewal term will be the same as the original term, beginning on the maturity date. The dividend rate and annual percentage yield will be the same we offer on new time accounts on the maturity date which have the same term, minimum balance (if any) and other features as the original certificate account.
You will have a grace period of seven calendar days after maturity to withdraw the funds without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.

Changes effective April 1, 2016 are in bold italics.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR SKYONE FEDERAL CREDIT UNION ALL-IN-ONE DISCLOSURE:This addendum replaces the Courtesy Pay section under “Common Features” on page 8 of the printed version of SkyOne’s All-In-One Disclosure dated December 16, 2010, effective August 1, 2012 and replaces the corresponding seven (7) sections listed below.
OVERDRAFT PRIVILEGE
Effective, August 1, 2012, the Courtesy Pay product name will change to Overdraft Privilege.
Overdraft Privilege: Overdraft Privilege is not a line of credit. In the case of non-sufficient funds in your checking account and you’ve exhausted your Overdraft Protection (if applicable), Overdraft Privilege may cover an ACH, check, recurring debit transaction, bill payment, or teller withdrawal. With your consent Overdraft Privilege will cover non-recurring (one-time) debit card transactions and ATM withdrawals. An Overdraft Privilege fee will apply and will be due and payable on demand. Please refer to the Schedule of Service Charges for the Overdraft Privilege fee. Checking account balance must be brought back to a positive balance within 30 calendar days.
Overdraft Privilege will use any and all funds deposited into your checking account, including exempt funds such as Social Security, SSI, Veterans Benefits and/or pension payments, to offset any negative balances or fees in your account.
Overdraft Privilege Eligibility: Your checking account must be open for 30 days or more and be maintained in good standing, which means: no loans delinquent more than 30 days, no checking accounts with zero or negative balance more than 30 days, no charged off SkyOne loans or share accounts, no ChexSystems records, no bankruptcies, levies or garnishments, and no dormant (inactive) account status. Minor accounts (under 18 years of age) do not qualify for Overdraft Privilege. Your checking account balance cannot remain negative for more than 30 calendar days.
If you do not have direct deposit or if your monthly direct deposit is less than $1,000, Overdraft Privilege may cover amounts up to a negative $500 balance (exclusive of any Overdraft Privilege fees). If you have direct deposit of $1,000 a month or more, Overdraft Privilege may cover amounts up to a negative $1,000 balance (exclusive of any Overdraft Privilege fees) in your checking account.
Overdraft Privilege Fees: The maximum number of Overdraft Privilege fees that will be assessed to a member’s account is five (5) per day.
If a transaction(s) brings the balance negative $10 or less, the item(s) will be paid and no Overdraft Privilege fee will apply.
Categories of Transactions: The categories of transactions for which an Overdraft Privilege may occur are check withdrawals, recurring debit card transactions, ACH, bill payment, or teller withdrawal. Non-recurring debit card transactions (both PIN and signature based) and ATM withdrawals may also be covered with member consent (see Extending Your Coverage below).
Transactions may not be processed in the order in which they occurred, and the order in which transactions are received and processed may impact the total amount of fees incurred.
Order of Payment: Transactions may not be processed in the order in which they occurred, and the order in which transactions are received and processed may impact the total amount of fees incurred.
Circumstances Under Which We Would Not Pay: The circumstances under which we would not pay an item that would overdraw your account are entirely within our discretion, and we reserve the right to not pay.
SkyOne will have the discretion to pay overdrafts within the Overdraft Privilege limits, but payment by SkyOne is a discretionary courtesy and not a right of the member or an obligation of SkyOne.
WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PAY ANY ITEM PRESENTED FOR PAYMENT IF YOUR ACCOUNT DOES NOT CONTAIN SUFFICIENT FUNDS. WE MAY REFUSE TO PAY ANY ITEM THROUGH OVERDRAFT PRIVILEGE FOR YOU AT ANY TIME, EVEN IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS IN GOOD STANDING AND EVEN IF WE HAVE PREVIOUSLY PAID THEM FOR YOU.
While SkyOne will have the discretion to pay overdrafts on accounts in good standing (as described above), any such payment is a discretionary courtesy, and not a right of the member or an obligation of SkyOne and SkyOne in its sole and absolute discretion, can cease paying overdrafts at any time without prior notice of reason or cause.
Extending Your Coverage: You must give your consent to extend Overdraft Privilege to cover non-recurring (one-time) debit card transactions (both PIN and signature based) and ATM withdrawal. To give your consent, you must contact SkyOne, complete the appropriate form on our website at SkyOne.org/extend. By giving SkyOne your consent, your non-recurring (one-time) debit card transaction and ATM withdrawals will be processed in accordance with this Overdraft Privilege policy and an Overdraft Privilege Fee will apply. If you do not extend your coverage, your non-recurring debit card transactions and ATM withdrawals will generally be declined.
Canceling Your Coverage: You may cancel Overdraft Privilege at any time by contacting SkyOne at 800.421.7111. By canceling Overdraft Privilege, your ATM withdrawal, debit card transaction, or teller withdrawal will be declined and your ACH, check, or bill payment will be returned unpaid and a Non-Sufficient Funds fee will apply if funds are not available. Please refer to the Schedule of Service Charges for the Non-Sufficient Funds fee.

Note: If Your frequency settings for the recurring payment specify the 29th, 30th, or 31st as a particular day of the month for processing and that day does not exist in the month of the calculated processing date, then the last calendar day of that month is used as the calculated processing date.
