Bank of Indiana wants our customers to have a firm understanding of their legal rights. If you have any questions about your legal rights after reading the disclosure statements in the links below, please do not hesitate to contact us.


Availability of Funds
Your Ability to Withdraw Funds
Our policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Once the funds are available, you can withdraw them in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks you have written.

For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturday, Sunday, and federal holidays. If you make a deposit before 2:00 p.m. at any BOI Banking Center, drive-up or ATM on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 2:00 p.m. at any BOI Banking Center, drive-up or ATM on a regular business day or on a day that we are closed, we will consider that deposit to be made on the next business day that we are open.

Longer Delays May Apply
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the first business day after the day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the fifth business day after the day of your deposit. The first $100.00 of your deposits, however may be available on the first business day.

If we do not make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day, we will notify you at the time that you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice by the day after we receive your deposit.

If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.

In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:

We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
You deposit checks totaling more than $5,000.00 on any one day.
You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
There is an emergency, such as failure of communications or computer equipment.

We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the fifth business day after the day of your deposit.

Special Rules for New Accounts
If you are a new customer, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open.

Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers and the first $5,000.00 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, travelers and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you (you may have to use a special deposit slip). The excess over $5,000.00 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees, the first $5,000.00 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit.

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 loss or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:

If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.

In order to comply with government agency or court orders; or,
If you give us written permission.

Unauthorized Transfers
Contact us IMMEDIATELY if you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all of the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you tell us within two business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card without your permission.

If you do not tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or code without your permission, if you had told us, you can lose as much as $500.

Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove we could have stopped someone from taking the money had you told us in time.

If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time period.

If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from our account without your permission, contact us immediately.

We must hear from you no later than 60 days after Bank of Indiana sent the first statement on which the problem or error appeared. When contacting us regarding an error, please have the following information ready:

After we hear from you we will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a point-of-sale transaction or a foreign initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this we will re-credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involved a point-of-sale transaction or a foreign initiated transfer) 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 questions in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not re-credit your account.

If we decided that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three business days after we finish our investigation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
