Overdraft from Savings
Funds are automatically transferred from your savings if your checking account balance is insufficient to cover checks, electronic debits, debit card purchases or payments scheduled through Bill Pay.* The funds must be available in the account and are transferred in the exact amount needed.
* A fee applies to each transfer. Please refer to the fee schedule.
Overdraft Line of Credit
This is an open-ended line of credit linked to your SESLOC checking account. Funds are advanced automatically to cover checks, electronic debits, debit card purchases or payments scheduled in Bill Pay if the balance in your checking account is insufficient.
There are no transfer fees, and no interest costs until you use it. Interest accrues from the day funds are advanced, and the amount due appears online or on your next statement.
