Transaction Limits
Withdrawal transactions from savings and money market accounts are governed by federal law and, if transaction limitations are exceeded, the account could be reclassified as non-interest bearing. Federal law limits transfers to another deposit account with BBVA or to a third party by means of a preauthorized agreement, telephonic request, check, debit card, draft or similar order (including Online Banking transfers and sweep transfers from a savings or money market account) to a total of six (6) per month. There is no limit on the number of withdrawals from such accounts when made in person at a BBVA banking office or at an automated teller machine. Withdrawal transactions subject to Excess Transaction Fees.
WithdrawAls
As required by Federal Law. BBVA reserves the right to require account holders to provide at least seven (7) days' notice prior to withdrawal or transfer of funds.
Interest Earnings
BBVA offers savings and investment accounts with various rate structures to meet your needs. BBVA pays interest on "net usable funds" at variable interest rates set by BBVA management from time to time at its discretion. "Net usable funds" means collected funds less any reserve imposed on that type of account by the Federal Reserve and less any reserve imposed by Bank management to cover various costs, such as those associated with deposit insurance. All interest rates and reserves applicable to the accounts described in this schedule are available from BBVA upon request. A taxpayer identification number will be required in accordance with IRS regulations.
Processing Policies
Posting Order
The order in which withdrawals and deposits are processed		 We process and post transactions - both credits (including deposits) and debits - throughout the day. This approach allows us to more closely match the posting of transactions on your account with the timing of your actual account activity.
Note: Deposits received and posted late in the day will not cover payments and withdrawals posted earlier the same day.
Summary of Our Deposit Hold Policy
When funds deposited to your account are usually available for deposits less than $5,525 and absent exceptional circumstances - see the Account Agreement for a detailed description of our policy.
  • Cash deposit with Teller or ATM: same business day as the day of deposit
  • Direct deposit or wire transfer: same business day as the day of deposit
  • Check deposit with Teller or ATM: same business day as the day of deposit
  • Remote Deposit Capture: same business day as the day of deposit
  • If something causes a longer hold on a deposit, the first $225 of that deposit will generally be made available the same business day as the day of deposit.
A "business day" is a non-holiday weekday. At branches, business days end at closing time and at ATMs business days end no earlier than 1 pm. Remote Deposit Capture business days end at 8 pm CST.
Dispute Resolution
Dispute Resolution Agreement If a dispute arises between us, you or we may require that it be resolved through arbitration, rather than through jury trial. Please see the arbitration and waiver of jury trial provisions in your Consumer Deposit Account Agreement for additional details.
