SUPER
SAVER CHECKING
A direct deposit from your employer or other income source (Social Security, etc.) is the only qualification you need to open a Super Saver checking account. There is no monthly service charge and no minimum or average balance required. During a statement cycle, the first twenty checks post to the account with no fee. Thereafter, a small per check fee applies to each check. Check images are stored by the bank indefinitely.
Use of BSV's online banking services NetTeller and Bill Payment are
free of charge.
Direct deposits, through the Automated Clearing House (ACH)
network, are transfers of funds originating from a remote source.
Social Security, disability and other government payments may
be electronically credited to your account automatically.
Most non-governmental employee retirement plans also offer
electronic credits.
Whether you are retired or still on the job, you
benefit from the convenient ACH direct deposit service because
deposits are automatic and always on time, even if you cannot get to
the bank. You can relax
at home in bad weather or take an extended vacation with the
satisfaction of knowing that your deposit has arrived safely at the
bank on the proper day.

ELECTRONIC CHECK IMAGES
All checks written from your BSV
account (s) are stored at the bank as electronic
images. Checks are not
returned in monthly statements.
Certain checking account types have the option to receive
printed check images. All
customers may view their check images online with BSV NetTeller.
Image Statements
This service is optional for Premier
Plus Checking, Premier Checking, Advantage Checking, and Regular
Checking. If one of
these accounts falls below the minimum or average balance required
to waive monthly service fees, and a monthly fee is assessed, there
is a slight increase in that fee for electronic check images to
cover the cost of production and postage.
Please request the latest BSV Service Charge Schedule for a
detailed listing of balance requirements and monthly service fees.
Check images are provided
automatically with Money Market Investment Accounts, Advantage
Non-Personal Checking, Business Checking and Money Market Business
Investment Accounts.
Images Online
Internet
users can see check images online at no cost by signing up for BSV
NetTeller. Online
check images are available for all checking accounts.
Images are sharp and clear.
You can see both the front and back of a check, print the
check and save the image to your computer’s hard drive for later
use.
