Transaction Limitations
Your ability to initiate transactions between deposit accounts may be limited by federal law or by the terms of your deposit agreement with us.
Bill Payment Service
The Bill Payment service allows you to schedule bill payments through The First Citizens National Bank Online Banking. You must complete a separate Enrollment Form to subscribe to this service. The Bank does not provide the service directly. Instead, the Bank entered into an agreement with a bill payment provider to provide the bill payment services directly to you. A bill payment account (“Bill Payment Account”), separate from any account you hold at the Bank, is established at the Bill Payment provider.
The Bank and its Bill Payment provider reserve the right, at their discretion, to implement security features to reduce the risk of loss. These may include requiring pre-authorized drafts, verifying funds through an ATM network, and separating debits from credits so that payments are not sent until after good funds are received. The Bank and its Bill Payment provider also reserve the right to terminate your use of Bill Payment Services at any time.
Information Security
We are strongly committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of our customer account information. We use several techniques to help secure our Online Banking Services including the following:
- You can only access The First Citizens National Bank Online Banking with certain browsers that have a high-security standard.
- Security images and passphrases are used to identify the website.
- Your account numbers may or may not be displayed in full. Either the last four digits can be viewed or the entire account number may be displayed with Cash Management Online Banking.
- You must have a valid Username (Access ID) and Password to log on.
- Additional security questions will be prompted when using a non-registered computer.
- If no action is taken for 10 minutes, you will be automatically logged off the Online Banking Service.
- All passwords must be changed when logging into Online Banking the first time. Online banking profiles will expire after 90 days of inactivity.
Despite the security techniques we have put into place, the Internet is a public network, subject to all of the risks to security and data corruption attendant thereto. You agree that we are not responsible for unauthorized access to or misuse of your account or property by unauthorized persons, except as provided in this Agreement, or for data corruption caused by Internet communications. You agree to make no attempt to access or use any account belonging to others. We may terminate your access and use of any The First Citizens National Bank website if we believe your access or use is infringing any rights of others.

You should never provide your password or other identifiers used for system login to anyone, including anyone claiming to represent the Bank. You are liable for all transactions made or authorized using your Username (Access ID) and Password.
Protecting your Username (Access ID) and Password

Indemnity to the Bank
You hereby indemnify and release the Bank from any and all liability.
