- If you close your account before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest.

- The period we use is days in statement cycle.
Additional Terms
- Interest and/or ATM Refunds credited to your Interest Checking Combo Account will automatically transfer to your Interest Savings Account on the business day following the date of your last Interest Checking Combo Statement Cycle.

Internet Banking and eSign Disclosure). Images of processed items are available online. Active internet banking account and email address is required at all times.

- Fees incurred from ATM withdrawals made from your Interest Savings Account will NOT be refunded.
- If your Interest Checking Combo Account is closed for any reason and your Interest Savings Account remains open, your Interest Savings Account will be converted to a Regular Savings, there will be no transfer of interest and ATM Refunds, and your account will no longer qualify for the higher rate of interest. A Regular Savings Account Disclosure is available upon request.
- If converting from an existing Gulf Coast Bank Savings Account, the conversion will take place only when the customer maintains an active Interest Checking Combo Account and NOT until the next statement cycle of your existing account. Subsequent statement cycles will be on the 15th of the month. Any accrued interest will be credited and any applicable fees will be assessed on the day the account is converted.
- Qualifying deposits includes all personal checking, savings or certificates of deposits that are directly linked to this account.
