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 services that come with your account.
2. We also offer overdraft protection plans, such as a link to a savings account, credit card account, or overdraft line of credit, which may be less expensive than our standard overdraft practices.  Ask us to learn more about these plans. This section explains our standard overdraft services.

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

• ATM transactions
• Everyday Check/Debit Card transactions

Under our standard overdraft practices:

• We will charge you a fee each time we pay an overdraft. Please refer to the Rate & Fee Schedule.
• There is no limit on the total fees we can charge you for overdrawing your account.

If you want us to authorize and pay overdrafts on ATM and everyday Check/Debit Card transactions, complete the Opt-In form and present it at one of our office locations, or mail it to: 

Point Breeze Credit Union

• Gas stations purchases
• Doctor’s office transactions

You run the risk of transactions being denied at the ATM or merchant if you do not have sufficient funds in your account. However, even if you Opt-In there is no guarantee that the transaction will be approved if there are no funds in the account.

There are no fees if you never use this protection. However, if you are overdrawn, the regular overdraft fee may be assessed to your account. Please refer to the Rate & Fee Schedule.

We will indicate on your completed Opt-In authorization form that it was received and return it to you, after making a copy for our records.
