2 An overdraft fee may be imposed for covering overdrafts created by check or electronic funds transfer, including debit card transactions and Automated Clearing House transactions. If sufficient funds are not available, then any such item presented may be returned to the payee due to non-sufficient funds and all applicable fees may be charged to your Account as set forth in the Truth-In-Savings Fee Schedule.

3 This is an optional service on eligible Checking Accounts for each membership. Eligibility is at the sole discretion of the Credit Union and is based on you managing your Checking Account in a responsible manner. This service allows us to pay, at our discretion, any withdrawal order item (whether by check, electronic funds transfer, including ATM and everyday (one-time) debit card transactions and Automated Clearing House (ACH) preauthorized transactions) if you do not have enough available funds to cover the item(s) in your Checking Account. However, if you would like to include overdrafts for ATM and everyday (one-time) debit card transactions, you are required to “opt-in” (in other words, you must provide us with your affirmative consent) to the overdraft service. If we pay overdraft items for you, we will charge your Account an overdraft fee for each overdraft, as set forth in the Truth-In-Savings Fee Schedule. With Overdraft Privilege Pay, we will generally pay your overdraft items up to a total of $800.00; however, whether your overdrafts are paid is discretionary and we reserve the right not to pay an overdraft on your Checking Account. For example, we typically do not pay overdrafts if your Account is not in good standing, or you are not making regular deposits, or you have too many overdrafts. Accounts must be brought to a positive account balance within 30 calendar days.
