A charge of $35 is assessed, up to three (3) charges per day, for each overdraft created by check, in-person withdrawal, recurring debit, and for each overdraft created by ATM withdrawal or one-time debit card purchases if you have opted in to having such items paid into overdraft with a fee assessed. There is no overdraft fee on debit card transactions when your account has sufficient funds available at authorization, even though you no longer have funds available when the transaction posts. There is no charge for items that we return due to insufficient funds. If you overdraw your account by $5 or less on any one day, there will be no overdraft charge.
