Notice
to Registrants Making Payment by Check
Authorization to Convert
Your Check:
If you send us a check to
make your payment, your check will be converted into an electronic
fund transfer. "Electronic fund transfer" is the term
used to refer to the process in which we electronically instruct
your financial institution to transfer funds from your account to
our account, rather than processing your check. By sending your
completed, signed check to us, you authorize us to copy your check
and to use the account information from your check to make an
electronic fund transfer from your account for the same amount as
the check. If the electronic fund transfer cannot be processed for
technical reasons, you authorize us to process the copy of your
check.
Insufficient Funds:
The electronic funds
transfer from your account will usually occur with 24 hours, which
is faster than a check is normally processed. Therefore, make sure
there are sufficient funds available in your checking account when
you send us your check. If the electronic funds transfer cannot be
completed because of insufficient funds, we may try to make the
transfer up to two times.
Transaction
Information:
The electronic fund transfer
from your account will be on the account statement you receive
from your financial institution. However, the transfer may be in a
different place on your statement than the place where your checks
normally appear. For example, it may appear under "other
withdrawals" or "other transactions." You will not
receive your original check back from your financial institution.
For security reasons, we will destroy your original check, but we
will keep a copy of the check for record-keeping purposes.
Your Rights:
You should contact your
financial institution immediately if you believe that the
electronic fund transfer reported on your account statement was
not properly authorized or is otherwise incorrect. Consumers have
protections under Federal law called the Electronic Fund Transfer
Act for an unauthorized or incorrect electronic fund transfer.
