Statements of Terms, Conditions and Disclosures

GENERAL

This Agreement contains the rules, terms, and conditions that apply to accounts held at this credit union. Please read this Agreement carefully; your continued use of your account(s) with us after you receive this booklet means you understand this is a contract and agree to be bound by its terms.

A credit union is a financial institution created by its members, for the purpose of serving its members. Much of our relationship with you is controlled by state and federal law, as well as our own bylaws and amendments to our bylaws. By agreement, our relationship is also controlled by the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in this state where we are located. This Agreement supplements any account agreement you have with us.

We may permit some variations from this Agreement, but any variation must be agreed to in writing. In this Agreement, the word "we", "us" and "our" means the credit union and the word "you" and "yours" means the account holder(s) or anyone who signs a Membership Application. The word "account" means any one or more share or other accounts you have with the credit union. You should retain a copy of this Disclosure book and any information that the Credit Union provides you regarding changes to this Disclosure book for as long as your account is open. You should ask the Credit Union any questions you have about this Disclosure book.

A membership saving account with the Credit Union must be maintained in order to continue membership and to be eligible for any other Credit Union services.

Deposit Insurance

Deposit insurance through the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the Federal government, is provided up to the maximum of $100,000 aggregate on all accounts in any one member's name. Additional insurance up to a $100,000 maximum is provided for all IRA accounts in any one member's name, as well as certain joint, payable on death and fiduciary accounts.

Payment of Dividends

Except for share certificates, dividends are based on the Credit Union's earnings at the end of a dividend period after regulatory transfers to the reserves are made and thus cannot be guaranteed. A lower effective yield may result depending upon account activity or the amount of funds upon which dividends will be paid. Share disclosures further explain the dividend features.

Transaction Limitations

The Credit Union Board of Directors shall have the right to require members to give, in writing, not less than 7 and not more than 60 days notice of intention to withdraw the whole or any part of the amounts so paid in by them. Funds in checking accounts may be withdrawn with notice.

Inactive and Abandoned Accounts

If a member's aggregate balance falls below $500.00 and there has not been monetary activity on the account such as withdrawals from, deposits to, or loan transactions for one (1) year, the member will be subject to an inactive account status and applicable fees. Unless, there is activity, Inactive Fees will be charged to the member's account as specified in the Fee Schedule. Inactive account fees are not refundable.

Members under the age of 16 will be exempt from this fee. If there is no activity on a member's account for five (5) years, the Credit Union will notify the member by mail that the account has been presumed to be abandoned. If there is no contact with the member by the prescribed time, the account will be deemed abandoned and the funds will be turned over to the state of Arizona as in accordance with state law.

Once funds have been turned over to the state, the Credit Union has no further liability to the member of the funds, and if the member wishes to reclaim such funds, the member must apply to the Arizona State Department of Revenue.

Your Ability to Withdraw Funds at Sun Country Credit Union

This policy statement applies to transaction accounts. Transaction accounts, in general, are accounts which permit an unlimited number of payments to third persons and an unlimited number of telephone and preauthorized transfers to other accounts of yours with us. Checking accounts are the most common transaction accounts. Feel free to ask us whether any of your other accounts might also be under this policy.

Our policy is to make funds from your deposits available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Once they are available, you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written.

Please remember that even after we have made funds available to you and you have withdrawn the funds you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit.

Determining the Availability of a Deposit

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 4:00 p.m. on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 4:00 p.m. 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 one of your accounts. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available if you had deposited it.

If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn on another bank, we may make funds from the deposit available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in any account with us. The funds in the account would then not be available for withdrawal until the time periods that are described elsewhere in this disclosure for the type of check that you deposited.

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 first business day after the day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the sixth business day after the day of your deposit. However, the first $100 of your deposits will be available on the first business day after we receive your deposit.

If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day after we receive 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 by the first 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 $5,000 on any one day.
  • You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
  • You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
  • If there is an emergency, such as failure of communications or computer 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 eleventh business day after the day of your deposit.

Deposits at Automated Teller Machines

Funds from any deposits (cash or checks) made at Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) we do not own or operate will be made available on the second business day after the day of deposit. Deposits over $2,000 may be subject to a longer hold.

Special Rules for New Accounts

If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open.

Funds from electronic direct deposits into your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit.

If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit.
