You may access Online Banking through FSB's web page on the Internet. Our Internet address is www.fsbct.com. For the purpose of this document, "You," and "Your" shall refer to each depositor who signs up for Farmington Savings Bank's Online Banking. "We," "Us," "Our" and "Bank" shall refer to FSB. Business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays are not included. All references to time of day in this Agreement and Disclosure refer to Eastern Standard Time.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT FSB ONLINE BANKING:

You may use Online Banking any time, day or night, seven days a week.  However, Online Banking may occasionally be temporarily unavailable due to bank record updating or technical problems.  You may choose to enroll for FSB Online Bill Pay, which allows you to pay your bills electronically through our Web Site.  There is no charge for FSB Online or FSB Online Bill Pay.


SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH FSB ONLINE BANKING:

The Online Banking service allows you to:

The Online Banking Bill Payment service allows you to:

ACCESS:

If two or more depositors are joint owners of the Accounts accessed by Online Banking, each may have access to those Accounts through Online Banking by simply enrolling. Since each individual has a personal Access ID and Password, no transfers or payments may be made from any Account that requires more than one signature.

ACCOUNT INFORMATION:

You may check the balances of FSB Accounts that are accessed by Online Banking. NOTE: The balance figure may not reflect your most recent transactions, and may also include funds which may not be immediately available for withdrawal. You may get a listing of your current statement, previous statement, previous day's transactions, and current day's transactions.


TRANSFERS:

You may transfer between Accounts that you select through Online Banking. All these Accounts must be in your name and you may transfer available funds only. You will receive immediate credit upon completion of your Online Banking session for any transfers you make.


LIMITATIONS ON SERVICES:

Special rules apply for Money Market and Savings Account Withdrawals. You can make no more than 6 preauthorized transfers, telephone transfers, or Internet banking transfers from the Account per month. No more than 3 of these six transfers can be by check, draft or similar order made by you and payable to third parties. You can make as many over-the-counter withdrawals as you wish. We will monitor compliance with these limitations based on the date on which the transfer was made.

Pre-authorized transfers made to pay loans you have with us are not counted as part of the six transfers we permit you to make.


SECURITY PROCEDURES:

An Online Banking Access ID and Password will be issued to you for security purposes. Both will be sent to you under separate cover. The first time you log on, you will be prompted to change your Access ID and Password. You must enter your Access ID and Password at the start of every web session to use FSB Online Banking. Your Access ID and Password are confidential and you are responsible for keeping them confidential. You agree not to disclose or otherwise make your Access ID or Password available to anyone not authorized to withdraw funds from your Accounts. We recommend you change your password periodically.


BILL PAYMENTS:

You may authorize the bank to make a payment on your behalf to any person or entity with an address in the United States. All Bill Payments you make through Online Banking will be deducted from the checking Account you choose and sent by check to the payee you have named. Your authorization in this manner allows the bank to process these payments without your signature. You cannot use Online Banking to make payments to the IRS or court ordered payments. While most payees can be paid by using the Bill Payment feature, we reserve the right to refuse to pay certain payees. You must have sufficient funds available in order to complete any authorized payments. We will continue to try to submit your payment daily until funds become available unless notified by you to discontinue. Checks, electronic payments, withdrawals or other instruments drawn on your Account will be paid by the bank in any order decided by the bank.

You should allow 10 business days for your payment to be sent, and subsequently received, and processed by the payee. Recurring payments (such as a loan payment) can be set up in the Online banking system for the same payee in the same amount and on the same date each month. Payments that are to be sent on a Saturday, Sunday or a holiday will be processed on the next business day. Payment instructions must be received by 4:00 PM to be processed on that day. The bank is not responsible for delays in the delivery of payments by the U.S. Postal service nor for any late charges or finance charges that may be imposed as a result of your payment not being received or processed by the due date by the payee.

FSB is not liable in any way for damages you incur if you do not have sufficient funds in your Account to make the payment, if you do not allow sufficient time for delivery to the payee, or due to delays in mail delivery, changes of merchant address or Account number, the failure of any merchant to process the payment correctly or credit the payment in a timely manner, or for any other circumstances beyond the control of FSB.

Canceling or Modifying Online Bill Payments:

Payments designated as on "Demand" transactions and done by you may be canceled or changed before 4:00 PM during the week and 12:00 PM on Saturdays. In order to cancel or change an Online Banking transaction designated as "Future" or "Recurring", you must use your Online Banking session and access your payment list. You must cancel the payment or transfer by 4:00 PM on the scheduled weekday processing date and by 12:00 PM on the scheduled Saturday processing date.

Effective April 26, 2003 all branch, Telebanc and online banking transactions done on Saturday, Sunday, & bank holidays will be processed on the next business day.

 Due to the noted change in processing times, the terms above will change as follows.

Payments designated as on “Demand” transactions and done by you may be canceled or changed before 4:00 PM on any business day. In order to cancel or change an Online Banking transaction designated as “Future” or “Recurring”, you must use your online Banking session and access your payment list. You must cancel the payment or transfer by 4:00 PM on the scheduled business day.

Stopping Bill Payments:

The initiation by you of certain electronic fund transfers from your Account will effectively eliminate your ability to stop payment of the transfer. Unless otherwise provided in this agreement, you may not stop payment of electronic fund transfers. Therefore, you should not employ electronic access for bill pay unless you are satisfied that you will not need to stop payment.

Canceling Bill Payment Service:

You may cancel your use of the service at any time by sending an electronic message or request to us at info@fsbct.com or call us at 860-676-4600 or toll free at 1-877-376-2265. If you notify us by telephone, we may request that you put your request in writing. We cannot cancel the service until all pending payments have cleared. If you have pending payments and do not want to wait for them to clear, you may individually delete these future payments. You will not receive a refund of any service fee if you cancel. We may cancel the service, in whole or in part, at any time without prior notice. Cancellation shall not affect your liability or obligations under this agreement. If the Account is a joint Account, any owner of the Account may ask us to end this Agreement, or end the right to use Online Banking on the Account.

Liability for Failure To Make Bill Payments or Transfers:

If we do not complete a transfer to or from your Account in a timely manner in accordance with the terms and conditions of your Account and normal banking procedures or in the correct amount according to your instructions, we will be liable for certain types of losses or damages which you suffer. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable in the following instances.

Authorization to Charge Accounts:

You authorize Farmington Savings Bank to debit the checking Account you designate for all Online Banking transactions, including the amount of any Bill Payment or transfer that you make plus any charges for the service. You authorize us to process Bill Payments and to transfer funds according to your instructions. You authorize us to initiate any reversing entry and to debit your Accounts at Farmington Savings Bank or elsewhere, in order to correct any mistaken credit entry. If a Bill Payment or transfer request describes the recipient incorrectly by name or Account number, execution of the request will occur on the basis of the Account number, even if it identifies a person different from the named recipient. All Bill Payments will be made by check and your authorization in this manner allows the bank to process these payments without your signature.

Documentation and Verification of Payments and Transfers:

Confirmation Numbers:
Upon completion of a Bill or Transfer using Online Banking, you will be given a confirmation number. You should record this number, along with the payee, scheduled date and transaction amount in your checkbook register (or other permanent record), because this will help in resolving any problems that may occur. No printed receipts are issued through Online Banking.

PERIODIC STATEMENTS:

Information concerning Online Banking transactions will be shown on your regular monthly statement for the Account to and from which transfers or payments are made.

LOSS OF ACCESS ID AND PASSWORD:

The Access ID and Password (referred to hereafter as code(s)) for FSB Online are confidential and should not be disclosed to third parties. You are responsible for safekeeping your code(s). You agree not to disclose or otherwise make your code(s) available to anyone not authorized to sign on your Accounts.

LIABILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED USE:

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that your Password or Access ID have become known to an unauthorized person without your permission, or if someone has transferred or may transfer money from your Account without your permission. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. If you do not promptly notify us that you discovered your code(s) have been taken or used without your permission, you might lose all your Available Funds. If you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your code(s) without your permission.

If you do not tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Password or Access ID and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your Online Banking service without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.

Also, if your statement shows transfers from your Account 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 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 period.

If we terminate your use of Online Banking, we reserve the right to make no further transfers or payments from your Accounts, including any transactions you have previously authorized.
