The Bill Payment Process
By completing this process, you authorize Metro Employees Credit Union (MECU) to establish recurring transfers from or to your MECU account on a schedule you establish as specified herein. Start and Change transfers may require at least five (5) business days for setup prior to the first transfer.

One account must be a MECU account. The other account must be a non-commercial account at another financial institution within the jurisdiction of the United States or an accepted debit or credit card.  We will not process payments using cards issued by Metro Employees Credit Union. You must be the owner(s) of the ‘to’ and ‘from’ checking/savings accounts. We will process variable payments on the business day you designate, provided the payment request is received prior to the cut-off time set by us. Transfer requests will be processed on the day requested, unless the scheduled date falls on a weekend or a federal holiday. The transfer will then be made on the business day following the weekend or holiday. Variable bill requests received after the business day cut off time or at any time on a non-business day will be processed on the next business day.

For transfers to another financial institution, MECU cannot guarantee when the receiving financial institution will make the funds available. Funds must be available in the account 24 hours prior to transfer request. In the event there are not sufficient funds available at the request date, any future request will be cancelled. If a transfer is cancelled, a new authorization form must be completed to reinstate.

FOR RECURRING PAYMENT REQUESTS, IF YOU DESIGNATE A PROCESSING DATE OF THE 28TH THROUGH THE 31ST OF A MONTH, PROCESSING WILL BE INITIATED ON THE LAST CALENDAR DAY OF THE MONTH. Otherwise, recurring payment requests will be processed on the dates you have designated, unless such date falls on a non-business day resulting in your payment being processed on the next business day.

When scheduling Bill Payments, you must select a scheduled payment date (taking into account the processing information described in the previous paragraph) that is no later than your actual due date. Scheduled payment dates and recommended delivery times should be prior to any late date or grace period. We will not be responsible for any finance charges or penalties incurred for late payments that were due to invalid information entered by you.

When you have scheduled a payment, you authorize us to debit your Payment Account and remit funds on your behalf. You certify that your Payment Account is an account from which you are authorized to make payments and any payment you make will be debited from this account. You also authorize the credit of returned payments from using the Service.

To cancel this authorization, a written request must be submitted no less than two (2) business days prior to the scheduled transfer. The transfer may not be able to be stopped if notice is provided in less than two (2) business days. If transfer is cancelled, a new authorization form must be completed to reinstate.

MECU has the right to terminate the authorization agreement for any reason (i.e., invalid account number, non-sufficient funds [NSF], closed account). This authorization shall remain in full force and effect until MECU has received written notification from the member named herein (or joint member) of its termination in such a manner as to afford MECU a reasonable opportunity to act on that notification.

We will incur no liability if we are unable to complete any payments initiated because of any of the following:

  1. You did not provide us with complete and correct payment or transfer information;
  2. You did not properly follow the instructions for use of the Service;
  3. The Service is not working properly and you know or have been advised about the malfunction before you execute the transaction;
  4. If your Payment Account does not contain sufficient funds to complete the transaction or the transaction would exceed your credit limit or overdraft limit;
  5. Your Payment Account is closed or has been frozen;
  6. You, or anyone you allow, commits fraud or violates any law or regulation in connection with the Service;
  7. Circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, postal delay or improper transmission or handling by a third party) prevent, hinder or delay the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; and/or
  8. A legal order prohibits withdrawals from your Payment Account.

You agree to have funds available in the Payment Account you designate in amounts sufficient to pay for all Bill Payments requested as well as any other payment obligations you have to us. We reserve the right, without liability, to reject or reverse a Bill Payment if you fail to comply with this requirement or any other terms of this Agreement. If you do not have sufficient funds in the Payment Account and we have not exercised our right to reverse or reject a Bill Payment, you agree to pay for such payment obligations on demand.  If the automatic transfer is returned for insufficient funds or account closed, MECU will assess a fee, as specified in MECU’s Schedule of Fees and Charges.

Any Bill Payment that is not a recurring Bill Payment can be changed or canceled, provided you access the Service prior to the cut-off time on the business day prior to the business day the Bill Payment is going to be initiated.

Fees

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or an applicable Additional Agreement, there will be a fee of $7.95 per payment for payments made via debit card when using MECU’s Online Services. All standard fees (NSF, Stop Payment, etc.) set forth in our fees and charges schedule apply. MECU reserves the right to change fees or charge for Online Services account access or transactions in the future. You will be given at least 30 days advance notice before MECU implements any changes to fees or adds any new fees for Online services. You understand and agree that your mobile communications service provider or internet service provider may impose fees or charges associated with your use of your mobile communication device or computer, and that the Credit Union is not responsible for such fees or charges.

Periodic Statements
We will not send a periodic statement listing transactions that you make using the card portion of the  Service. The transactions will appear only on the statement issued by your bank or other financial institution. SAVE THE RECEIPTS YOU ARE GIVEN WHEN YOU USE THE SERVICE, AND CHECK THEM AGAINST THE ACCOUNT STATEMENT YOU RECEIVE FROM YOUR BANK OR OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. You agree to promptly review your monthly statement from your financial institution and to notify us immediately if there are any suspected unauthorized payments or errors related to the Service.

Stop Payment Order
You may stop payment on a recurring Bill Payment or transaction by accessing the Service or by notifying us either by telephone or in writing at least 3 business days before the scheduled date of the Bill Payment or transaction. We may require you to provide us with written confirmation of a stop payment order within 14 days of an oral notification. You will be advised when you call us to request a stop payment order if we will also need your written confirmation. If you are requested to provide a written confirmation and we do not receive it within 14 days, an oral stop-payment order will not be binding after that time and a subsequent debit may be made to your account if the item is resubmitted for payment.
