You will gain access to Telephone Banking through the use of Your telephone, PIN, and Your DDA or Savings Account number.

Hours of Operation
The Electronic Banking Services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, except during special maintenance periods. For purposes of transactions, those received after 3:00 p.m. on business days, and all transactions which are requested on weekends or holidays which FCB chooses to remain closed, will be processed on the next FCB business day.

Use of Your Online Banking Access ID and Password
FCB will mail You an Access ID and Password for use during the initial sign-on; for security purposes, You are then required to change Your Access ID, Password, and Your Enhanced Online Security. You determine your Access ID, the Enhanced Online Security information and your Password You will use (within the parameters set forth by the Online Banking Service). The identity of Your Password is not communicated to us. You agree that We are authorized to act on instructions received under Your Access ID and Password. You agree not to allow anyone to gain access to the Service(s) or to let anyone know Your Password used with the Service(s). Upon three unsuccessful attempts at authorization to use the system, You must contact Us to have Your Access reset or to obtain a new temporary Password. You agree to assume responsibility for all transactions up to the limits allowed by applicable law.

Use of Your Telephone Banking PIN
FCB will give You a temporary PIN (Personal Identification Number) to access Telephone Banking during the initial sign on. When signing on to Telephone Banking for the first time, You will be notified that Your PIN has expired. At this time, You will determine what PIN You will use. The identity of Your PIN is not communicated to us. You agree that We are authorized to act on instructions received under Your PIN.

A Customer Service Representative is available Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Voice mail is available during non-business hours. Telephoning Us is the best way of minimizing Your losses. If You believe Your Access ID, Password, or PIN has been lost or stolen and You notify Us within two business days after You learn of the loss or theft, only the first $50.00 of loss is chargeable to You if someone uses Your Password or PIN without Your permission. If You do not notify Us of such events within two business days of learning of the same and We can show that We could have prevented losses if You had notified us, You will be responsible for the first $500.00 of loss. If You believe that Your Access ID, Password, or PIN has been lost, stolen, or that someone has transferred, or may transfer money from Your account without Your permission, contact us.
