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. Bank transfers from Deposit Accounts that are savings or money market deposit account are limited by federal regulations as follows:

Bill Payment Service
The Bill Payment service allows you to schedule bill payments through FARMERS STATE BANK ONLINE Personal Internet Banking. You must complete a separate Enrollment Form to subscribe to this service.

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.

Unauthorized or Erroneous Transactions
You have certain rights and liabilities in instances where you believe 1) your User ID and Password have been stolen; 2) that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your accounts without your permission; 3) your statement reflects transfers that you did not make; or 4) there is an error on your account. In all of these instances, to ensure timely notice to the Bank and expedite resolution of any problems or questions, please contact us by writing or calling:
