3. Text Service
For your convenience, Regional offers a Text Service named "RegAcc Alerts". Text Service enables you to receive recurring-message text notifications regarding your Account. You are under no obligation to use the Text Service. Text Service messages are not encrypted and will never contain your full Account number. The information contained in Text Service messages is as of a specific time and date, but because Text Service is subject to delay or interruption, it should not be considered real time information. You understand that messages through Text Service may be delayed for a variety of reasons and will not reflect Account activity that occurred after the message was sent. Regional may terminate your Text Service at any time without notice. You may terminate your participation in Text Service by texting “STOP" to 39453. If you terminate your Text Service, you will no longer receive texts from us through Text Service. You understand that messages may be delayed or impacted by factor(s) pertaining to your Internet service provider(s), phone carriers, or other parties. Regional and Carriers will not be liable for losses or damages arising from any disclosure of Account information to third parties, non-delivery, delayed delivery, misdirected delivery or mishandling of, or inaccurate content in, the messages sent through Text Service.
Text Service is being provided to you for convenience purposes only and does not change your payment or other obligations unless specifically stated otherwise. Information in a response text through the Text Service program does not amend, supplement, change or replace any other notice or information that you may receive in connection with your Account, including any information provided in a monthly periodic statement or Account-related agreements. Text Service is being provided to you and this Agreement is made pursuant to the agreement applicable to the designated Accounts. All terms and conditions of your Account-related agreements, including any applicable arbitration provisions, apply to your use of the Text Service unless specifically modified by this Agreement.
You agree that you will use the Text Service, and any products or services received as a result of your use of Text Service, in a manner consistent with this Agreement. We may also add, modify, or delete any feature of the Text Service in our sole discretion. We may, but are not required to, provide you with notice of any change or termination in the Text Service. We may, but are not required to, send you notice when new features are added to or changed on the Text Service.
You agree to indemnify and hold Regional and all third party content providers which provide content for the Text Service (either through links or otherwise), harmless from any loss, including reasonable attorney’s fees, related to any claim made by any third party relating to your use of the Text Service, your connection to the Text Service, your violation of this Agreement, and any harm you cause another user of the Text Service.
We reserve the right to refuse to allow you to use the Text Service. Any user of this Text Service shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including the laws and regulations administered by the U.S. Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
- Our Texts to You through Text Service
By providing us with a mobile telephone number upon enrolling in Text Service, you consent to receiving text messages from us at that number concerning your Account(s) with Regional and you also consent to Regional and our agents or assignees texting you by any method at the phone number you provide, including our use of automated dialing equipment. We will not use autodialed or prerecorded message calls or texts to contact you for marketing purposes at the phone number you provide unless we receive your prior express written consent. Separately from the Text Service, we may text you in response to fraud or other suspicious activity on your Accounts as permitted by applicable law.
To stop receiving text messages, you can opt out via text message by sending a text that says “STOP” to 39453. You may also contact the Regional Customer Support Department at 1-866-644-7687 to inform us of your choice to revoke consent for the Text Service. Please note you could still receive messages related to suspected fraudulent or suspicious activity on your Account, and your “STOP” command will apply only to the Text Service and does not apply to any other method of communication to you.
Regional does not charge you a fee for using our Text Service, but you understand that your wireless service provider’s standard message and data rates may apply to texts sent through the Text Service, and charges may appear on your wireless bill or be deducted from your pre-paid balance. For help, text “HELP” to 39453. In case of questions, please contact the Regional Customer Support Department at 1-866-644-7687.
