1st United offers two levels of courtesy pay coverage – one for checks, electronic payments and bill payments and an additional level of coverage for ATM and debit card transactions. The first level of coverage is automatically included with your account. Members need to enroll in the second level of coverage for ATM and debit card transactions.
We pay overdrafts at our discretion, which means we do not guarantee that we will always authorize and pay any type of transaction. If we do not authorize and pay an overdraft, your transaction will be declined. For example, we may return an item presented against insufficient funds if you do not have an overdraft plan in good standing with available funds or credit.
How to add or remove courtesy pay coverage:
Call us at (800) 649-0193 if you need assistance.
