Review of Checks and Signatures Clause Samples
Review of Checks and Signatures. Check payment is highly automated, and we pay millions of checks every day. Although we inspect some checks, you agree that reasonable commercial standards don’t require us to do so. If we return a check because we believe it doesn’t match your signature on file with us, we’re not liable to you even if you authorized the check. If the numeric amount on a check doesn’t match the amount written out in words, we may select either one when paying it. We have no duty to prevent a check from being presented more than once.

As a result of automated account processing, we will pay all postdated checks presented for payment against your account, subject to the stop payment procedure in Section III. It is entirely at the option of the Bank to pay or dishonor any check more than six (6) months old. This may be done without prior notice to you. You agree to hold us harmless for paying any stale-dated or postdated check and agree to reimburse us for any loss we might suffer because of such payment made in good faith. In a similar fashion, we are also prevented from looking at the signatures on every check. However, in order to exercise reasonable care in the processing of checks, the Bank has established a dollar value of a check above which we will examine signatures. You acknowledge that the establishment of a cutoff level will not by itself constitute a failure to exercise ordinary care and that the establishment of a cutoff level is a commercially reasonable practice. In addition, the Bank reserves the right to change the cutoff level in its sole discretion.
