OUR SERVICES

Savings Accounts
The minimum balance needed to open and maintain an account is $5.00. Dividends are computed daily and paid quarterly on all share accounts. Dividends will be forfeited if the account is closed before the accrued interest is posted.

  • Regular Shares is the basic savings share on all Credit Union accounts.
  • The Second Share savings account helps you keep track of funds for a special purpose.
  • Christmas clubs are transferred the 1st week of November.
  • The Tax Club is a separate account to help you prepare for tax payments.
  • The Vacation Club provides a way to save for vacation travel.
  • The Energy Reserve account can help you prepare for the high cost of New England weather.
  • Individual Retirement Accounts are available for your future.

Multiple withdrawals in excess of four(4) per month are charged $2.50 per check in an attempt to discourage  too many withdrawal transactions . This does not pertain to Share Draft accounts or to transfers to Share Draft accounts.

Share Drafts (Checking) Accounts
There are No MONTHLY MAINTENANCE FEES on Share Draft accounts. You pay only for the cost of printing your checks and as a new share draft account holder you receive the first 50 checks FREE.

We use Duplicate Checks so you will not receive your canceled checks back, but you will receive a Monthly Statement showing all transactions. The statement will show check number, amount paid and date paid for each draft that has cleared your account. In addition, it is possible to order a copy of any Draft which has already cleared should you need it. See fee schedule below.

You can make deposits to your share draft account in person, through the mails (in-house or U.S. ), or via payroll deduction. You can call us, stop by, use Access 24 System, or Home Banking to find out what checks have cleared and to get a current balance. There are No FEES for these services. You can also request transfer deposits without fees, however, due to Federal Reserve requirements, transfers are limited to three per month.

Our share draft accounts are set up so that in the event of an overdraft, if sufficient funds are available in the regular shares, the necessary amount will automatically pull to cover the draft. See fee schedule below.

Share Draft items which incur a fee are:

  1. Overdraft of account, NSF check (insufficient funds) $27.50
  2. Stop payment (this fee only comes into play if and when the check is presented for payment) $10.00
  3. Microfilm copy of processed check $5.00
  4. Automatic transfer of funds from Regular Shares to Share Draft account to cover insufficient funds $2.00
  5. Return Items from deposits $10.00
  6. Copy of statement $5.00

If you need assistance in balancing your account or wish to be shown how to balance a checking account we will be happy to give you the help you need. There is no charge for this service the first time, however, there is a $15.00 per hour charge for further check book balancing assistance.
