Any electronic disclosure or communication we make by posting in the SNT Web site shall be considered made when posted by us.
 
3   Bills and Statements
  By requesting that bills, statements or other communications from a Biller be sent to you through the Service, you acknowledge that you have all necessary rights, power and authority to receive such information. You acknowledge that we make no representations or warranties of any kind relating to, and are not responsible for the content of the bills, statements, invoices, advertising or other materials you may receive from Billers, or for the quality or fitness of the products or services you may have purchased from Billers.
 
4   Payments
  After reviewing a bill, you may direct that payment be made using the Service. You must designate a Payment Account maintained by you at a bank or other eligible financial institution (F.I.) from which payments will be made using this Service. You agree that, by scheduling a payment, you authorize SNT, the Biller to which the payment is scheduled and their respective agents to initiate debit entries to your Payment Account in such amount as is necessary to pay the Biller's bill and to initiate any debit or credit entries to your Payment Account necessary to correct any error in a payment.  You also authorize your F.I. to debit or credit your Payment Account in the amount of such payments or corrections. You undertake and warrant that you have all necessary rights, power and authority to authorize each such payment. This authorization shall remain in full force and effect until SNT has received notice from you of your termination of such authorization in such time and in such manner as to afford SNT and your F.I. reasonable opportunity to act on it.
  We will transfer funds to each respective Biller in accordance with procedures reasonably designed to enable the Biller to credit your account with the Biller as of the date you order or schedule.  Transfers made to us in this manner will be considered timely under this Terms and Conditions, and we accept no responsibility for any failure by the Biller to provide timely credit on your account in accordance with the Biller's agreement with us.
