A qualifying direct deposit is a direct deposit of your salary, pension, Social Security, or other regular monthly income electronically deposited through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network to this checking account by your employer or an outside agency (please check with your employer or outside agency to determine if they use the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network). Transfers from one account to another, mobile deposits, or deposits made at a banking location or ATM do not qualify as a direct deposit.

Turning off your debit card is not a replacement for reporting your card lost or stolen. Contact us immediately if you believe that unauthorized transactions have been made. Turning your card off will not stop card transactions presented as recurring transactions; transactions using other cards linked to your deposit account; or the posting of refunds, reversals, or credit adjustments to your account. Any digital card numbers linked to the debit card will also be turned off. Availability may be affected by your mobile carrier’s coverage area. Your mobile carrier’s message and data rates may apply.
