Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your ATM/POS Card and/or Personal Identification Number (PIN) OR Access Code has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your
maximum overdraft line of credit if you have one with us).

have stopped someone from taking the money if you had 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 periods. If you have authorized someone else to use the PIN or Access Code,
you are responsible for all transactions that person or persons initiates at any time, even if the amount or transactions exceed what you may have authorized.
