Please mail us a letter if unable to call to: Commercial State Bank, P O Box 150, El Campo, TX 77437. If you think your statement or receipt is wrong, we must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared. In any communication about problems or errors, please provide the following:

Your name and account number(s)
Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error, or why you need more information
The type, time, date, and dollar amount of the transaction of the suspected error.

If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (5 business days for Visa Check Card point of sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a new account, a point -of-sale transaction, or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (5 business days for Visa Check Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account with us before this account is opened.

We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.

You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

Bill Pay Payments
When scheduling payments, you must select a payment date that is no less than 7 to 10 business days before the actual due date, not the past due date or grace period. The daily cut-off time is 2:00 pm. Any payments submitted after the cut-off time will be processed on the following business day.

A payment may be canceled no later than 2:00 pm on the payment date by contacting the bank.
If you choose to stop a payment, a stop payment fee of $15.00 will be charged per bill payment you wish to cancel.

I understand and agree to be bound by all of these terms and conditions. I have also received a copy of this terms and conditions on this date.
