be considered ineligible items:
- Checks payable to any person or entity other than the person or entity that owns the account that the check is being deposited into.

time to time. - Receipt of Items
We reserve the right to reject any item transmitted through the Services, at our discretion, without liability to you. We are not responsible for items we do not receive or for images that are dropped during transmission. An
image of an item shall be deemed received when you receive a confirmation from Bank of Pontiac that we have received the image. Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error free, complete or will be considered a deposit
and credited to your account. We further reserve the right to charge back to your account at any time, any item that we subsequently determine was not an eligible item. You agree that the Bank is not liable for any loss, costs, or fees you may
incur as a result of our chargeback of an ineligible item. - Availability of Funds
Checks deposited via the Service by Bank of Pontiac’s 3:00 PM CST deadline will be considered deposited on that business day and subject to the Funds Availability disclosure provided during account opening. Otherwise,
we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open. Funds deposited using the Services will generally be made available on the first business day after the day of deposit. - Disposal of Transmitted Items
Upon your receipt of a confirmation from Bank of Pontiac that we have received an image that you have transmitted, you agree to prominently mark the item as “Mobile Deposit” with the date, "Electronically
Presented", "VOID", or otherwise render it incapable of further transmission, deposit, or presentment. You agree never to re-present the item. You agree to retain the check for at least 60 calendar days from the date of the image transmission.
After 60 days, you agree to securely destroy the check that you transmitted. During the time the retained check is available, you agree to securely and properly handle the check and upon request, promptly provide it to Bank of Pontiac. - Deposit Limits
We reserve the right to and may establish limits on the dollar amount and/or number of items or deposits from time to time. If you attempt to initiate a deposit in excess of these limits, we may reject your deposit. If we permit
you to make a deposit in excess of these limits, such deposit will still be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and we will not be obligated to allow such a deposit at other times. - Presentment
The manner in which the items are cleared, presented for payment, and collected shall be in Bank of Pontiac’s sole discretion subject to the agreements governing your account. - Errors
