Overdraft Services
With Members Trust Overdraft Services, you know that your transactions will be covered. We offer two overdraft services to help you manage your checking account. Both services are optional and there are no enrollment fees. If you are enrolled in both services, we will use Overdraft Protection first - which has a lower fee - to cover your overdraft.
Overdraft Protection
With Overdraft Protection we will automatically transfer available funds from your selected Members Trust account, to cover your transaction, if you don’t have enough money in your checking account. There is no fee to sign up for Overdraft Protection. A single Overdraft Protection transfer fee would be charged only when we transfer funds. See our current fee schedule for the current Overdraft Protection fee. Overdraft Protection provides the extra peace of mind for your checking account.
Overdraft Privilege
We offer a useful feature on our Checking accounts - Overdraft Privilege - as a benefit to our members. With Overdraft Privilege we will pay your non-sufficient funds (NSF) checks, ACH transactions (and optional check card transactions), and fees up to a preapproved limit. There is a set fee per overdraft item but this service saves you time, embarrassment and the additional fees charged by many other companies. Overdraft Privilege is available to members with accounts in good standing and available limit on their Overdraft Privilege option. Members are required to restore a positive balance in their checking account, within 45 days or the account will be closed and sent for collection.
