Overdraft Protection

Everyone needs a safety net from time to time. When you sign up for overdraft protection, you get the reassurance that any payments you make, or cheques you write are covered. If your account dips below zero, your overdraft protection is your safety net.

The details:

• A Low monthly fee of $2.50 for overdraft protection services on your chequing account – better than the big banks!
• Competitive interest rate on outstanding overdraft balances.
  

Overdraft protection is a handy feature because once you go into your overdraft, any deposits to your account will reduce your overdraft amount. This way, you're not borrowing money and carrying debt any longer than you need to.

We'd love to answer any questions you may have about overdraft protection and make sure you have all your borrowing needs covered. Just call us at 1-800-616-8878 to book a Service Chat today.
