Preauthorized Payments. The Bill Pay service permits you to use your Internet-enabled device to direct payments from your designated online Bill Pay account to third parties you wish to pay. You can pay bills from your Bill Pay account to businesses or individuals. Users of the Bill Pay service agree to the following terms and conditions. The user’s utilization of bill payment services constitutes agreement to these terms and conditions:
All payments you make will be deducted from the checking account that you designate as your Bill Pay account for the Bill Payment service. Any payments you, wish to make through this Service must be payable in U.S. dollars to a payee located in the continental United States. We reserve the right to restrict types of payees to whom payments may be made using the service from time to time. You should not use the Bill Pay service to make payments to settle securities purchases, payments to interest bearing accounts, tax payments, or court ordered payments. Payments for these payees, will be your sole responsibility if delayed or improperly processed or credited.
Scheduling Payments. Fundo LLC must be available in your Bill Pay account on the scheduled payment date. You cannot schedule a payment to be initiated on Saturday, Sunday or a United States Federal Holiday when the Federal Reserve is closed. After funds are withdrawn from your Bill Pay account to make a payment, we may make the payment either by transferring funds electronically to the payee or by mailing the payee a check. By setting up an arrangement utilizing the portal, you agree to allow Fundo LLC to withdraw the amount specified by you, on the days specified by you, automatically for the life of each agreement.
- You may choose to schedule payments to recur in the same amount at regular weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly intervals. Payments may be scheduled for up to 24 months in the future. When you create a new payee in the Bill Pay service, it takes between Two (2) and Ten (10) business days to set up the payee to receive payments. You should schedule a payment to a new payee at least Ten (10) business days before any payment due date, to allow us time to set up the payee and verify information about your account with the payee.
- For all subsequent payments, you agree to allow at least Three (3) to Five (5) business days between the date you schedule a payment to be initiated and the payment due date (that is, the due date you need the payment to be made, often shown on your invoice or provided in your agreement, with the payee, not taking into account any applicable grace period). If the payment is an Automatic Clearing House (“ACH”) or a Remote Check Creation (“RCC”) electronic payment, it may take up to three (3) business days to reach the payee. However, if the company or person that you are paying cannot accept an electronic payment, the Bill Pay service, will send a check that may take up to five (5) business days. After Ninety (90) days, these checks are not negotiable and considered stale. If you do not follow these time frames, you will be fully responsible for all late fees, finance charges or other actions taken by the payee. If you schedule your payment and follow all instructions provided, but the payment is not received by the payee in a timely manner, Fundo LLC, will work with the payee on your behalf to reverse any late fees or charges. However, Fundo LLC shall not be responsible for any late charges, finance charges, or other associated fees as a direct result of any late payments.
- By using the Services, you authorize Fundo LLC to either make alternate arrangements for the payment or to reschedule the payment through the Bill Pay service.
Right to stop payment and procedure for doing so. If you have told us in advance to make regular transfers out of your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here’s how:
