Overdraft Opt In

  • What You Need To Know about Overdrafts and Overdraft Fees - OPT IN -

    An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough money in your account to cover a transaction, but we pay it anyway.  We can cover your overdrafts in two different ways:

    1. We have standard overdraft practices that come with your account.
    2. We also offer overdraft protection plans. Link an eligible checking, savings, or a line of credit accounts to automatically transfer funds to your checking account to pay transactions, which may be less expensive than our standard overdraft practices. To learn more, ask us about these plans.

    This notice explains our standard overdraft practices.

    What are the standard overdraft practices that come with my account?

    We do authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions:

    • Checks and other transactions made using your checking account number
    • Automatic bill payments

    After August 15, 2010 we will not authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions unless you ask us to (see below):

    • ATM transactions
    • Everyday debit card transactions

    We pay overdrafts at our discretion, which means we do not guarantee that we will always authorize and pay any type of transaction.

    If we do not authorize and pay an overdraft, your transaction will be declined.

    What fees will I be charged if Citizens Trust Bank pays my overdraft?

    Under our standard overdraft practices:

    • We will charge you a fee of up to $35 each time we pay an overdraft
    • There is a limit of $350 per day on the total fees we can charge you for overdrawing your account

    What if I want Citizens Trust Bank to authorize and pay overdrafts on my ATM and everyday debit card transactions?

    If you want us to authorize and pay overdrafts on ATM and everyday debit card transactions after August 15, 2010
