Once you overdraft, if you bring your account back to a positive balance within 24 hours, no fee is charged. After 24 hours, you will be charged a $20 fee per transaction that overdrafts your account by more than $10.
How long do I have to pay back the amount I overdraft without a fee?
You have 24 hours from the time your transaction posts to your account to pay back an overdraft transaction that settles and creates a negative balance greater than $10 before a fee is assessed. Let’s say that you overdraft your account by more than $10 at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, then you have until 2:00 p.m. on Friday to add the funds into your account to avoid a fee.
Here are some options to bring your account back to zero or more to avoid paying an overdraft fee:
1) transfer money from your Savings Account to your Spending Account.
