Introduction
This Bill Payment Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Legend Bank and each client who has enrolled in our Bill Pay service.
A. SECTION I – SERVICE DESCRIPTION, FEATURES, FEES, AND LIMITATIONS
Availability
Legend Bank Bill Pay is generally accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Legend Bank Bill Pay may be inaccessible for a reasonable period weekly to perform system maintenance. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to Legend Bank Bill Pay for any reason without notice.
Bill Payment Service
The bill payment service allows you to pay bills out of a designated account on a one-time or periodic basis to payees that you designate subject to the limitations described below.
To pay a bill, you must designate a payee to receive the funds, the amount of money you want to send to the payee, and the date the payment is to be sent.
BILL PAYMENT LIMITS
You may not schedule a single bill payment for greater than $25,000.00.
“SEND ON” DATE vs. “DELIVER BY” DATE
When scheduling a bill payment, note the difference between the “SEND ON” date and the “DELIVER BY” date. The “SEND ON” date is the date we will attempt to deduct the payment amount from your designated account. If the attempted deduction fails because you did not have enough funds in your primary account, we will send you an email indicating this and attempt to deduct the money again the next day. If the second attempted deduction is not successful, the transaction will be cancelled and you will be responsible for rescheduling. If the second attempted deduction is successful, the payment will be processed and remitted to the payee, however the “DELIVER BY” date will be one business day later. Payment deduction attempts happen every day of the week, regardless of weekends or holidays.
If you schedule a payment with the “SEND ON” date as the current date, you must have adequate funds in your account at the time the payment is scheduled. The funds will be deducted shortly after you log out of the session. If you schedule a payment with the “SEND ON” date in the future, there must be adequate funds in your account when we attempt the deduction. This can occur anytime between 12:01 am and 4:00 pm EST.
The “DELIVER BY” date is the date that you can expect the payee to post the payment to your account. The “DELIVER BY” date for your payment should be no later than the due date the payee has indicated for the payment.
PAYMENT GUARANTEE
If a properly scheduled payment is not received and posted on time by the payee, we will attempt to remove any late fees or assessed finance charges. (Finance charges are calculated based on your payment amount rather than your entire balance.) If the payee is unwilling or unable to remove them, we will pay the fees and finance charges directly to the payee. In addition, we will attempt to add a note of explanation to your account to ensure that the situation does not negatively impact your credit rating.
The Payment Guarantee applies to late fees and/or finance charges associated with the late posting of a payment, provided that the following conditions are met:
- The payment was scheduled to be delivered on or before the due date of your bill, excluding any grace periods.
- The information supplied by you is correct (payee name and address, your name and account number as it appears on the payee's records).
- You had sufficient funds in your account during our first deduction attempt on the “SEND ON” date.
We will only be responsible for the direct fees or finance charges associated with the late payment. We will not be responsible for any other consequential damages that might arise from the late payment.
CANCELLING BILL PAYMENTS
We may cancel a bill payment if we have reasonable belief that the payment is fraudulent. If we cancel a payment, we will attempt to contact you to inform you of this action.
You may cancel an outstanding bill payment at anytime through Legend Bank Bill Pay. Bill payments are considered outstanding until the “SEND ON” date.
You can cancel a “Recurring” transaction verbally or in writing no later than 3 business days before the “SEND ON” date of the transaction by contacting Customer Service at the address or phone number listed in this agreement. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and provide it to us within fourteen days. The notice must detail whether the cancellation applies to only one of the recurring transactions, or all transactions in the recurring stream.
INTERNET EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS
It is important to keep a current Internet email address on file with us, as we use this to communicate important security events about your account to you such as:
- User ID changes
- Internet email address changes (sent to old and new addresses)
- Adding New Payees
SERVICE TERMINATION
We may terminate your participation in Legend Bank Bill Pay for any reason, at anytime. We will attempt to notify you in advance, but we are not obliged to do so.
You may not terminate your participation in Legend Bank Bill Pay if you have outstanding bill payments scheduled. If you have no outstanding bill payments you can terminate service participation by providing, in writing, your intent to cancel this agreement and must be received 10 business days prior to the next scheduled Bill Payment.
FEES
At the present time there are no fees for Legend Bill Pay; however the bank reserves the right to charge for these services in the future. Additional features within Legend Bank Bill Pay that will incur a fee include:
- Money HQ – an account aggregation feature that allows you to aggregate information from all your online financial accounts, electronically transfer funds between any of your Legend Bank accounts and any of your accounts at other financial institutions, electronically send funds to another person at this or another financial institution, consolidate, organize and present bill information from credit card companies, utilities and other organizations offering online viewing of bills, and receive balance and due date alerts.

activity on your account. Only reveal your account information
number to a legitimate entity for a purpose you authorize (such
as your utility company or insurance company for automatic
payments). To notify us, call Customer Service at 940-872-2221
or write to Legend Bank, Customer Service, P. O. Box 1081,
Bowie, Texas 76230-1081.
If your online password has been compromised and an
unauthorized transfer has occurred and you tell us within two
business days after you learn of the theft or loss, you can lose
no more than $50 if someone used your online password without
your authorization or permission to access a Bank deposit
account. If you DO NOT tell us within two business days after
your learn of the theft or loss, and we could have stopped
someone from taking money without your authorization or
permission had you told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers, withdrawals or
purchases you did not make or authorize, please notify us at
once. If you do not notify us within sixty calendar days after
the paper or online statement was sent to you, and we could have
stopped someone from taking money if you had told us in time,
