Privilege Pay

IMPORTANT OVERDRAFT PRIVILEGE PAY INFORMATION

New regulations have been passed by the Federal Reserve Board that require all financial institutions to obtain an "Opt-In" request from all account holders to continue providing Overdraft Privilege Pay services on ATM and one-time debit card transactions.

If we do not receive your "Opt-In" request by August 15, 2010, your current overdraft services with Unity One Credit Union will no longer cover ATM or debit card transactions. Please note the new regulations do not affect your current overdraft services that are provided on your ACH or paper check transactions. Providing Unity One with your "Opt-In" request before August 15, 2010 will ensure that you do not experience any disruptions in the services you currently receive. Unity One members have the option to "Opt-In" or revoke your consent for Overdraft Privilege Pay at any time.

If you do not request to "Opt-In" for Overdraft Privilege Pay with Unity One Credit Union your ATM and one-time debit card transactions will be declined if funds are not available. All transactions will be completed with the existing policies of your account.

In order to continue receiving the Overdraft Privilege Pay service that qualified members currently receive, your "Opt-In" request is required. Opting-In to Overdraft Privilege Pay protection does not mean you will meet all required qualifications for the service. If you have questions, please contact us by calling 1-800-628-5517.
