Overdraft protection (aka Overdraft Privilege, Courtesy Pay) is an added service CSE Federal Credit Union eligible members have come to rely upon to insure that check, debit, and credit card payments are covered. Many of us experience low balances between paychecks and knowing that our payments will be covered - not only gives us peace of mind - it avoids embarrassment and harmful late payments that affect our credit scores.

Overdraft Privilege - ODP is an added privilege that provides eligible members with the security of knowing their overdrafts may be paid up to a total of $500, saving them the embarrassment, expense and inconvenience of having a check returned due to insufficient funds. ODP may be available after 30 days of checking account activity and activated after other protections have been exhausted. Your formal consent must be received by CSE at the time of opening your checking account in order for you to participatein ODP. **click here to view policy Payments made on behalf of members are at the discretion of CSE FCU, and members are responsible for re-paying the credit union. This is not a contractual agreement, nor is it a loan, and the privilege may be withdrawn at any time. For more details, see CSE FCU Discretionary Overdraft Privilege Policy for eligibility requirements. The Overdraft Privilege limit is $500, including fees charged by CSE FCU. A $20 fee will be charged for every overdrawn check that is paid. Checks will be returned to payee once the overdraft privilege limit is depleted.
