For Traditional Home Equity Line of Credit:
During the first ten years of your equity line of credit (the draw period), you will be billed monthly for the interest due on your loan balance. After the ten-year draw period, we will work with you to convert your line of credit into an equity loan, during which time the principal and interest will be repaid over a ten year time frame.

For Home Equity Line of Credit with Lock Option:
During the first ten years of your equity line of credit with a lock option loan (draw period), you will be billed monthly for the interest due on your loan balance.  At any time during the draw period you may choose to lock any or all of your line into a fixed-rate advance. You will choose the term of the advance and pay it back just like a fixed-rate loan.  These fixed payments will be in addition to any interest payments due on any balance that is not locked.  As you pay down your balance, your available credit will increase. You can have 3 fixed-rate advances in one year and at any one time, and 10 over the life of the loan. After the ten year draw period, your line of credit will be converted so that no further advances will be available and you will be billed monthly principal and interest payments to repay your balance over a 10 year time frame.

This is notification that an item deposited into your account has been returned for some reason, typically for non-sufficient funds (NSF).

Payment amounts are limited to your regular payment amount due at this time. Payment of another amount may result in a delay in the processing of your payment.

Payment Privilege is a discretionary overdraft service requiring no action on your part that provides you a safety net up to an automatically assigned overdraft limit. Your Payment Privilege limit may be available for checks and other transactions made using your checking account number or automatic bill payment and recurring debit card payment. Also, at your request, we may authorize and pay ATM transfers or withdrawals and everyday debit card purchases using your limit.

 

There is no additional cost associated with this privilege unless you use it. You will be charged our overdraft per item paid fee of $32 for each overdrawn item created by a traditional paper-based check, a teller withdrawal, an automatic payment (ACH) transaction, or a recurring debit card payment. Also, if you have requested us to do so, we may authorize and cover ATM transfers or withdrawals and everyday debit card purchases. For example, three paid items in one day will result in a total of $96 in overdraft fees for that day. To help you manage your account, the total fees you have paid for items (both paid and returned) during the current month and for the year-to-date will be reflected on your monthly checking statement.

As long as you maintain your account in “good standing,” we may approve your overdraft items within your current available Payment Privilege limit as a non-contractual courtesy.

For overdraft privilege consideration, your account is in “good standing” if you (1) make sufficient deposits to bring your account to a positive end-of-day balance at least once every 30 calendar days (including the payment of all credit union fees and charges); (2) avoid excessive overdrafts suggesting the use of Payment Privilege as a continuing line of credit; (3) Not being in default on any loan or other obligation with St. Mary’s Bank; and (4) there are no legal orders, levies or liens against your account.
Please note that the amount of the overdraft plus our overdraft per item paid fee of $32 will be deducted from your overdraft limit. If the item is returned, the overdraft per item return fee of $32 will be deducted from your account. No interest will be charged on the overdraft balance.
Please refer to the member overdraft policy for additional details.

You will receive an overdraft notice each time items are paid, including fees. You will need to subtract the total fees when balancing your checkbook.

Locate your account type below and make note of the corresponding limit. If you have multiple accounts for your household, you may have a limit on all eligible accounts.
 

Beyond Checking	$ 300
Beyond Rewards and Beyond Interest Checking	$ 500

Overdrafts above and beyond your established Payment Privilege limit may result in checks or other items being returned to the payee. The overdraft per item return fee of $20 will be charged per item and assessed to your account. A non-sufficient funds notice will be sent to notify you of items paid and/or returned.

You should make every attempt to bring your account to a positive end-of-day balance as soon as possible, and must do so within 30 calendar days. If you are not able to do so, you will receive a letter from St. Mary’s Bank informing you that your Payment Privilege limit has been suspended and additional items will be returned.

The chart below shows the different ways you can access your Payment Privilege limit.
 

Access points	Is my overdraft privilege available?
Teller	Yes
Writing a Check	Yes
Debit Card (recurring)	Yes
Debit Card (everyday)	Optional*
ATM Withdrawal	Optional*
ACH - Auto Debit	Yes
Online Banking	Yes
Bill Pay	Yes
Telephone Banking	Yes

*Payment Privilege service will be made available for ATM or everyday debit card transactions upon your request. Call 1-888-786-2791 or visit one of our branches to arrange for your ATM and debit card coverage.

If you are a new member, you may be able to use the Payment Privilege service 30 days after your account is opened, assuming your account is in “good standing”. 

The best way to avoid overdrafts and fees is to keep track of your account balance by entering all checks, debit card purchases and ATM withdrawals in your check register, reconcile your check book regularly and manage your finances responsibly. We also offer a variety of online tools to help you manage your finances and avoid overdrafts. If you haven’t done so already, sign up for Online Banking and Bill Pay for easy tools to manage your finances online. However, if a mistake occurs, St. Mary’s Bank offers additional ways to cover overdrafts** in addition to Payment Privilege. Other options include:
 

Good account management	$0
Link to savings account	$2 per sweep
Overdraft line of credit	$25 Annual Fee
Payment Privilege overdraft per item paid	$32

If you would like to have this service removed from your account, please call 1-888-786-2791 or visit a branch office.

Bill payments through online banking, recurring debit card payments, checks and other transactions made using your checking account number may continue to be authorized at our discretion even if you don’t opt in to Standard Overdraft Practices. If we authorize and pay an overdraft transaction on your behalf, standard overdraft fees will apply. 

The service we provide you through Overdraft Protection is separate from the Payment Privilege for ATM and one time debit card transactions service that can be added to your account. When a debit card transaction exceeds your available balance, your St. Mary’s Overdraft Protection is used first to cover the overdraft. Payment Privilege would only be used if funds are needed beyond what is available through your Overdraft Protection. 

If you do not opt in to Payment Privilege, any ATM or everyday debit card transactions that exceed your available balance may be declined. 

You can find a copy of the policy online here, at any office location or we can have one mailed to you. Please call our Member Contact Center at 1-888-786-2791.

No text/no problem! The system can call you back with the verification code. Or, you may use an authenticator app.

Yes, update your email address and always keep it current. While email will not be used for security verification, it will be used to send you secure messages, notice when your eStatement is ready, and other communications.

March 1, 2023.

We are making the change to improve security. To perform some functions or make changes in online and mobile banking, it requires an authentication step for account security. Often hackers and fraudsters exploit email and gain unauthorized access. Using a telephone number to call or text the account owner for authentication is more secure as is an authenticator app.

While an international phone number cannot be used, the alternative is to use an authenticator application like Google Authenticator.

It’s great that you have that in place. Unfortunately as we have no control over enabling multi-factor on our member’s personal email accounts. Using a phone call, text, or authenticator app for verification is a more secure approach for our members. A multi-layered approach of something you know (username and password) and something you have (phone) is more secure. Ultimately, it is beneficial to our membership, minimizing losses, and further protects our members’ financial accounts. Protecting your account is our priority.
 

Authenticate using a two-factor authentication application like Google Authenticator, Authy, or Duo are options to receive the Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) code. You will need to have an Authenticator App on your device and enable it in order to start using it.

• This process should be done using a browser on a desktop or laptop.
• Authenticator Apps can be downloaded from an App Store.

Once completed, a verification code will be required, using email, text or voice, before the 2FA is completely added. Once confirmed, you will then have 2FA as an option for MFA.
