At times, unanticipated expenses or unforseen problems can leave you with too little cash in your checking account. Having a check returned
due to insufficient funds can be a costly, inconvenient and potentially embarrassing experience.
Bounce ProtectionSM is an overdraft privilege available to
checking accounts in good standing* designed to provide you with a little more breathing room if your funds run low in your account.
As long as you keep your account in good standing, we will approve your overdraft items within your current available Bounce Protection limit.
Remember when using Bounce Protection that for each item paid under the limit a $30 NSF fee will be automatically deducted from your account.
We will notifiy you by mail when an overdraft occurs.
How much does my Bounce Protection privilege cost?
There is no additional cost for Bounce Protection on your account as long as you bring your account to a positive balance once every 30 days.
In the normal course of business, we generally pay electronic transactions first and then checks, prioritized low to high, per the bank's policy.
We reserve the right to change the order of payment without notice to ou if we suspect fraud or possible illegal activity affecting your account.
What do I have to do to get Bounce Protection on my account?
Absolutely nothing! If you have a checking account with First State Bank & Trust Company, your designated Bounce Protection limit is
automatically assigned to your account. As long as you keep your account in good standing* you can enjoy this extra
feature on your account. (New accounts have a waiting period of 30 days before Bounce Protection is applied to the account.)
You may opt out of this privilege at any time, but you are responsible for any overdrawn balances at the time of opting out.
