Banks

I received the following email from my bank:

We’ve updated our xxxxx xxxxx Digital Banking Agreement to reflect some enhancements and service changes. The new Agreement will be effective on Friday, November 8.

No action is necessary on your part. Your continued use of First Citizens Digital Banking confirms your agreement to the changes.

Here is one section that allows the bank to modify our digital account at their discretion:

H. SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH DIGITAL BANKING

Some of the Services described below may not be available for certain accounts or customers. We reserve the right to modify the scope and type of activities offered via Internal Digital Banking and any of the Services at any time, or limit eligibility for these Services, in our sole discretion.

We may also, from time to time, introduce new Services or enhance existing Services. By using new or enhanced Services when they become available, you agree to be bound by the terms governing each service.
