Signature of the representative should be duly authenticated by the Depositor on the withdrawal/debit slip. At the BANK’s discretion, withdrawals may be made in amount/s exceeding his withdrawable balance which represents the Depositor’s ledger balance less uncollected check deposits and deposit with lien.

The Depositor is allowed a certain number of withdrawals / funds transfer from his account in any given month (depending on the product), in excess of which, the BANK reserves the right to impose a service charge or a lower interest rate.  The BANK does not warrant availability of foreign currency notes at all times to meet withdrawal requirements. In case of non-availability of currency notes, withdrawals may be in the form of telegraphic transfers, demand drafts, mail transfers or in the currency which is legal tender in the Philippines.

Deposits may be withdrawn only in the manner provided therein.

The BANK retains the right to close, at its sole discretion, any of your account/s for reasons which the BANK may deem reasonable for the protection of its interest at any time and without obligation to disclose the reason for such closure.

The depositor agrees to hold the Bank and its officers and employees free from harm from any and all liabilities, claims and demands of whatever kind or nature in connection with or arising from the closure of your account.

INTEREST

The account shall earn interest net of applicable withholding tax if it meets the required minimum balance set by the BANK. Interest earned shall be credited to the Depositor’s account at the end of every month or quarter, whichever is applicable. A reduced interest rate may apply if the account fails to meet the required frequency of withdrawal per quarter. A check item accepted for deposit does not earn interest until after the proceeds of such item have been cleared and fully credited to the account. No interest shall be paid on the account if (a) for ten (10 ) consecutive years there is no deposit, withdrawal, or notice from the Depositor; or (b) the account is closed before the end of the month. No interest shall be paid on dormant accounts or when the BANK has requested the Depositor to close his account in which case, the account stops accruing interest as soon as the BANK transfers the balance to Accounts Payable or issued a Manager’s Check in favor of the Depositor.

INTEREST COMPUTATION

Interest rates are computed as follows:

Daily accrued gross interest = End of Day Cleared Balance x Applicable Interest Rate x 1/365

Interest payout (net of tax) = Sum of all accrued interests for the month or for the quarter less Applicable Tax Rate

Note, however, that: a) Payout of interests for CASA is either monthly or quarterly, depending on the product type; and b) The computation above does not include special bonus interests or penalty interests rules for certain deposit products.

STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT

The Statement of Account (SOA) is the official record of the transactions and balances of the account. It shall be provided to the Depositor periodically either through pick-up from the Depository Branch, or electronic mail/e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the Depositor depending on the regulatory requirements on the matter. As advised in the SOA, the Depositor should promptly notify the BANK through 24-hour Customer Service hotline at (632) 88-791-88 or e-mail at [email protected] of any exceptions noted in the statement within twenty (20) calendar days from receipt thereof. Otherwise, the Depositor shall be deemed to have accepted the correctness of the statement.  For a Depositor opting to have his SOA e-mailed, the Depositor shall inform the BANK immediately in case of any change in his e-mail address. Should the Depositor request for a statement of account prior to his cycle date, his account shall be debited for the processing fee. Special statements, on the other hand, shall be available at the Depository branch for pick-up by the Depositor or his duly authorized representative. The BANK reserves the right to destroy monthly bank statements including any related cancelled/paid checks and/or any debit/credit memos remaining unclaimed for a period of 90 calendar days from the time the SOA was made available for pick-up, or from the time it was e-mailed, or from the time the SOA, and scanned copies of the issued checks (if available) were sent via e-mail. Securing the designated e-mail address against unauthorized use shall be the sole responsibility of the Depositor. In opting to receive the SOA via e-mail, the Depositor assumes the risks involved in e-mail transmissions, such as but not limited to, the risk that the information may not be delivered, the account information becomes exposed to unknown third parties and lose its confidential nature, the risk that the e-mail account is hacked and such other risks inherent in e-mail communications. The e-mail of the SOA to the Depositor is one-way and informational in nature. Sending an e-mail message to the e-mail address used by the BANK in sending the SOA, or replying to e-mail messages sent by the BANK therefrom will produce no useful results. Further, the BANK shall not be faulted in cases when the SOA is not e-mailed to the Depositor due to circumstances beyond the BANK’s control, including but not limited to network congestion, transmission interference, internet/e-mail service provider downtime, etc. As such, the Depositor agrees to hold the BANK free and harmless from liability for any damages that may arise as a result thereof.

CHECKBOOK

Checkbooks shall be issued only to the accountholder personally, or to an authorized representative upon receipt by the BANK of an accomplished and duly signed checkbook requisition slip. The Depositor shall exercise care in requisitioning for additional checkbooks. To ensure continuous supply of the checkbooks, the requisition by the Depositor must be made at least one (1) month in advance of the expected delivery. Checkbooks shall be issued to the Depositor for a fee to be debited from the account of the Depositor upon checkbook order (via automatic checkbook re-order facility, over-the-counter request or alternate channels). Charges are subject to increase without prior notice to the client.  Checkbooks requested through different alternate channels are deemed final. Checkbook requests done through the use of other available facilities (ATM, Phone Banking, etc.) shall be processed accordingly. It is understood, however, that requests made by accounts with insufficient balance to cover the cost of checkbook shall not be processed. Ordered checkbooks must be claimed within 90 calendar days from the date of requisition, otherwise, these checkbooks shall be destroyed. The Depositor shall safeguard all utilized checks with utmost care to preclude any possible loss and/or pilferage. Checkbook loss should be reported to the BANK immediately in writing. The BANK shall not be held liable for lost checks which are honored by the BANK before written notice of loss is received. The Depositor shall be fully responsible for all checks issued under the Depositor’s account. Neither the BANK nor its correspondent bank(s) shall examine the checks for any irregularity. The BANK also reserves the right not to release the checkbooks ordered if account is deemed improperly handled. The BANK would not be liable for any bank charges, such as but not limited to, Returned Checks and Other Cash Items (RCOCI) charges and minimum monthly Average Daily Balance (ADB) charges that shall arise as a result of the debit of the checkbook charges.

STOP PAYMENT ORDER (SPO)

The SPO shall take effect on the next banking day from the date of the acceptance of the Depositor’s request for an SPO. The Depositor shall not hold the BANK liable if payment is made or accrued before the SPO is effected. No SPO or the renewal thereof shall bind the BANK unless: (i) made in writing; (ii) the check is described in all particulars; and (iii) served upon any Authorized Officer of the BANK’s branch where the account is maintained. The service of a request for stop payment, or its renewal, upon the branch of account shall not constitute notice, actual or constructive, to any other branch. The SPO shall be effective for 180 days counted from receipt by the BANK of the request, renewable for no longer than another period of 180 days counted from receipt by the BANK of the request for renewal. By directing the BANK to stop payment on a check, the Depositor agrees to indemnify, and hold the BANK harmless against, and from any and all losses, claims, damages or expenses which the Depositor or any person shall suffer as a result of the non-payment of any check under the Depositor’s SPO. In case of joint “or” accounts, the SPO shall be made only by the drawer of the check. On-Us Check/s payable to the BANK, i.e., Security Bank, SB, Security Bank Corporation, SBC, the BANK, Security Bank and Trust Company, SBTC or any of its affiliates and subsidiaries, such as but not limited to, Security Bank Savings, SB Cards Corporation, SB Cards, SB Capital Corporation, among others, shall not be accepted for SPO.

PASSBOOK OR RECORD BOOK

The Depositor shall be furnished with a Passbook or Recordbook where the BANK shall, upon presentation of the Passbook or Recordbook, record all deposits/withdrawals made. No entries in the Passbook or Recordbook shall be made except by the BANK. However, mere possession of the Passbook or Recordbook shall not be presumed or deemed as acceptable proof of the balance of the account as deposits and withdrawals may be allowed at the BANK’s discretion, without presentation of the Passbook or Recordbook. The Passbook or Recordbook is neither transferable nor assignable, and cannot be pledged or assigned as security in favor of any party other than the BANK (for Passbook). Except for computer-generated entries, typewritten or manual entries, and any other alteration, superimposition or erasure on the passbook shall render said entries void and invalid. In case of any discrepancy or inconsistency between the entries in the Passbook or Recordbook and Bank Records, the latter shall prevail and shall be the basis for allowing withdrawals and other transactions.

JOINT ACCOUNTS

In the payment of funds or transaction of other business on the account, during the lifetime of all the joint accountholders, the BANK shall follow the authority given by the Depositors in the AOSIF or SIF thus, any one, any two, any three, all, etc. Any of the Depositors may deposit and endorse for deposit in the account, checks, drafts, bills of exchange and/or other instruments for the payment of money payable or purporting to belong to any one or more of the Depositors. The BANK is authorized to honor and pay any debit from the account instruction, issued checks or other written orders by any one, any two, or all of the Depositor/s in accordance with the authority so given by them in the AOSIF or SIF, all without the need of inquiry by the BANK as to the use or disposition of the funds so withdrawn. The Depositors are jointly and severally liable for the payment of any obligation to the BANK in connection with the operation of the account.

In the event of death of a Depositor, the BANK shall freeze or hold any withdrawal from an account maintained by such Depositor upon knowledge of said Depositor’s death.  The release of the hold shall be subject to the submission of the other requirements of the BANK for deceased Depositor accounts and collection of 6% FWT from the total proceeds, as may be applicable, pursuant to R.A. 10963 (TRAIN LAW) and its implementing rules and regulations.

If the deceased Depositor owns the account jointly with other persons, each surviving co-depositor can be allowed to withdraw up to their proportionate share in the account, in the absence of proof to the contrary, provided that a certified true copy of the death certificate of the deceased depositor is submitted.  The Bank shall freeze or hold any withdrawal from the share of the deceased Depositor until the requirements of the Bank for deceased Depositor accounts are complied with. The collection of the 6% FWT, as may be applicable, pursuant to R.A. 10963 (TRAIN LAW) and its implementing rules and regulations shall be based on the proportionate share of the deceased Depositor. I and/or person(s) exercising parental or legal authority acknowledge that they have principal and solidary liability with the Depository and, as such, hold the Bank free and harmless and indemnified from damages, liabilities, claims, suits and causes of action arising from the use and operation of the Accounts, products, services, facilities, and channels.

In the case of account will be opened as “In-Trust- For” Account (ITF Account), the Depositor agrees that the owner of the funds is the individual for whose benefit the ITF Account is opened and that the Depositor is merely holding and operating said account in trust for such owner.
