Mistakes happen. Whether it’s an accounting error or a temporary shortage of funds, our overdraft services are designed to provide a backup for those moments. Here are the options available to you.
Transfer from another account: With this option, we take the funds from another Georgia’s Own account to cover the shortage. The fee is much smaller than what a returned check would cost.
Overdraft protection for checks, ACH transactions and recurring debits: This service covers transactions that come in via check or automated payments so they are not returned or declined.
Overdraft protection for one-time debit and ATM transactions: This service covers your ATM and debit card transactions when there are insufficient funds in your account(s). To avoid your transactions being declined, you must opt-in.
Overdraft line of credit: This option provides a line of credit when there isn’t enough money in any of your accounts to cover the transaction. You only pay interest when you use the line of credit.
Balance notifications: This handy feature lets you set up personalized notifications when your checking account drops below a certain amount. This will give you the heads-up to hold off on further transactions until you can add funds.
1Overdraft Services is available to members 18 and over who are in good standing with the Credit Union. We may approve certain transactions that overdraw your account. An overdraft fee of thirty-five dollars ($35.00) may be charged for each transaction that overdraws your account. The categories or types of transactions that may overdraw your account include payments, purchases and transfers. Whether your overdrafts will be paid or not is in our sole discretion and we reserve the right not to pay the overdraft. For example, we typically do not pay overdrafts if your account is not in good standing or if you have too many overdrafts. We reserve the right to require you to repay your overdrafts immediately or on demand. Read full Overdraft Disclosure.
