CUe-Branch Requirements
You must be a member in good standing and agree to the terms and conditions of NRS Community Development Federal Credit Union's CUe-Branch Agreement and Disclosure.
To use CUe-Branch, you need a computer with a modem, Internet access and a web browser that supports 128-bit encryption (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or above; or Netscape Navigator 7.02 or above). CUe-Branch is best viewed with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or Netscape 7.02. If your computer is a Mac and you are having problems accessing your account using Netscape Navigator, it is suggested that you download Internet Explorer's latest version and attempt access.
NRSCDFCU is committed to providing the most secure Internet service. When you interact with NRSCDFCU on this secure site, all the information is encrypted or encoded. Encryption is a procedure for turning plain text or other information into an unrecognizable pattern of data. 128-bit encryption is the strongest form of Web browser encryption commonly available for use on the Internet, and you must use a browser that supports 128-bit encryption to access your accounts.
You are responsible for the set-up and maintenance of your computer and modem. We are not responsible for any errors or failures from any malfunction of your computer or any virus or other problems related to the use of the Internet Banking Services.

CUe-Branch Access
Upon approval, you may use your personal computer to access your accounts. You must use your CUe-Branch user name and password to access your accounts.
Availability of CUe-Branch Internet Service
CUe-Branch services are generally available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year except for those times that the system is unavailable due to back-up procedures or maintenance. We are not liable under this Agreement for failure to provide access due to a system failure or due to other unforeseen acts.
We may modify, suspend, or terminate access to the CUe-Branch Internet Banking Services at any time and for any reason without notice.
CUe-Branch Services
You can use CUe-Branch to access all accounts that are linked to your social security number. At your request, you may remove access to any account or sub-account that has your social security number.
At the present time, you may use the following CUe-Branch services:
Account Information - You may review balances and transaction history on all accounts and sub-accounts existing under your user name. Your account balances are online and include all transactions that have been posted to your account up to that point in time. However, the availability of funds for transfer or withdrawal may be limited due to our Funds Availability Policy. The transaction history information may be limited to recent account information involving your accounts.
Transfers - You may make transfers to your accounts or other accounts that you are authorized on as often as you like except for those accounts with transfer limitations as disclosed when you opened the account and any amendments to that disclosure. Transfers and bill payments from your savings and club accounts will be limited to a total of six (6) (Federal Regulation D) in any one calendar month. You may transfer or withdraw up to the available balance in your account at the time of the transfer, except as limited under this Agreement or your deposit. We reserve the right to refuse any transaction that would draw upon insufficient or unavailable funds, lower an account below a required balance, or otherwise require us to increase our required reserve on the account.
Transactions involving your accounts will be subject to the terms of your Membership and Account Agreement; and transactions involving a line of credit account or Home Equity Loan will be subject to your Credit Agreement and Disclosures, or your Home Equity Agreement and Disclosures, as applicable.
Apply for a Loan - You may make an application for a loan. You will be notified by telephone of the disposition of your application.
Request a Check - You may request a check withdrawal from any savings, checking or club account (excluding Christmas, IRA, and Money Market Magic club accounts). A check will be issued payable to the member and all joint owners, and mailed to the address on record at the Credit Union.
Reorder Checks - You may reorder additional checks in the same format as your last order from us.
Stop Payment - You may request a stop payment order for a check or range of checks from your checking account. Requests made after 2:00 PM Central Time may not be effective until the following business day. A CUe-Branch stop payment request will serve as a substitute for a written order.
E-mail - You may send communications directly to the Credit Union. However, the Credit Union may not immediately receive e-mail communications that you send and the Credit Union will not take action based on e-mail requests until the Credit Union actually receives your message and has a reasonable opportunity to act. If you need to contact the Credit Union immediately regarding an unauthorized transaction or stop payment request, you may call the Credit Union at 205-833-3556.
Change Password - You may select a new password for your account access at any time.
QuickenÒ or Microsoft MoneyÒ - You may download your account information to financial management software programs, if applicable.
Authorized Use
Your user name and password will be your CUe-Branch home signature and you can use it to access all accounts that are linked to your social security number. Members that are joint owners on other accounts will also have access to those accounts. At your request, you may remove access to any account or sub-account that has your social security number.
Security of User Name and Password
You are responsible for safekeeping of your user name and password. You agree not to disclose or otherwise make your user name and password available to anyone not authorized to sign on your accounts. If you fail to maintain the security of your user name and password and NRS Community Development Federal Credit Union suffers a loss, we may terminate your CUe-Branch account services immediately. Revealing your user name and password will grant access to those accounts by unauthorized individuals.
To ensure the security of your CUe-Branch account, we will return you to the Log On screen if no activity has occurred within ten (10) minutes.
Member Liability
You are responsible for all transfers you authorize under this Agreement. If you permit other persons to use your user name and password, you are responsible for any transactions they authorize or conduct on any of your accounts. However, tell us at once if you believe anyone has used your user name and password or accessed your accounts without your authority. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. For CUe-Branch transactions, if you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than fifty dollars ($50.00) if someone accessed your account without your permission. If you do not tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the unauthorized use of your account or user name and password, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from accessing your account without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as five hundred dollars ($500.00).
Also, if your statement shows CUe-Branch transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to you, you may be liable for the full amount of the loss if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from making the unauthorized transactions. If a good reason (such as a long trip or hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
If you believe that someone has used your user name and password or has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, call us at 205-833-3556.
Immediately change your password if you think it has been compromised.
Business Days
Our business days are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.
Fees and Charges
Currently there are no fees to use CUe-Branch. All standard fees (NSF, Stop Payment, etc.) set forth in our fees and charges schedule apply. NRSCDFCU reserves the right to charge for CUe-Branch account access or transactions in the future. You will be given at least 30 days advance notice before NRSCDFCU implements any changes to fees or adds any new fees for CUe-Branch service.
Right to Receive Statements
All of your CUe-Branch transactions will appear on your regular account statement. The Credit Union will not provide separate documentation of this activity. You may print the confirmation of each transaction from your computer screen for your records.
Account Information Disclosure
We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
Credit Union Liability for Failure to Make Transfers
If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable for instance:
Termination of Electronic Fund Transfer Services
You agree that we may terminate this Agreement and your electronic fund transfer services if you, or any authorized user of your CUe-Branch services or password, breach this or any other agreement with us; or if we have reason to believe that there has been an unauthorized use of your accounts or password.
You or any other party to your account can terminate this Agreement by notifying us in writing. Termination of service will be effective the first business day following receipt of your written notice. Termination of this Agreement will not affect the rights and responsibilities of the parties under this Agreement for transactions initiated before termination.
CUe-Branch services may be terminated to those members that cause a loss to the Credit Union.
Notices
The Credit Union reserves the right to change the terms and conditions upon which this service is offered.

You understand that we must comply with these laws, regulations, and rules. You agree that if there is any inconsistency between the terms of the Agreement and any applicable law, regulation, or rule, the terms of this Agreement will prevail to the extent any such law, regulation, or rule may be modified by agreement between us.
Enforcement
You agree to be liable to the Credit Union for any liability, loss, or expense as provided in this Agreement that the Credit Union incurs as a result of any dispute involving your accounts or services.

If we decide to do this, we will re-credit your account within ten (10) business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) business days, we may not re-credit your account.
If it is determined there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three (3) business days after we finish our investigation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
