Is Debit Card Overdraft Coverage right for you?

If you want Community Alliance Credit Union to authorize and pay overdrafts on your everyday debit card transactions, please call us at 1.800.287.0046 so we may mail you a form to complete.

Deadline for existing members to opt in is August 15, 2010.

If you open a new account on or after July 1, 2010, your everyday debit card transactions will not be protected unless you opt in at account opening.

Funds from any deposit (cash or check) made at an ATM will automatically be held for two business days.  You will receive a written notice if an extended hold is placed on your deposit for any reason.  Your daily withdrawal limit is no more than $300 in cash per day at an ATM.  Point-of-Sale transactions using your ATM or VISA® Check Card may not exceed $1,000 per day.
