Overdraft Services

We understand life happens and it's easy to lose track of how much money you have available. That's why we provide members with options.
What is an overdraft?

An overdraft occurs when you authorize any transaction that exceeds the "available balance" in your account(s). Your available balance is our most current record of the amount of money in your account available for your use or withdrawal.

Standard Overdraft Coverage

All Listerhill checking accounts come with Standard Overdraft Coverage. Under Standard Overdraft Coverage, Listerhill may authorize the following transactions:

  • Checks
  • Bill payments (such as recurring ACH transactions)

If an item is paid into overdraft, you will be charged an Overdraft Fee.

You can opt out of Standard Overdraft Coverage at any time by visiting a Listerhill branch or calling 1-800-239-6033.

If you are opted out, the item will be returned and you will be charged an NSF Fee.

  • If a transfer comes from a savings account, a Transfer Fee will be assessed.
  • If a transfer comes from a line of credit account*, a Transfer Fee will not be assessed.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What happens when federally insured credit unions merge?

    If a member has accounts in credit union A and credit union B, and credit union A merges into credit union B, accounts of credit union A continue to be insured separately from the share deposits of credit union B for six months after the date of the merger or, in the case of a share certificate, the earliest maturity date after the six-month period. In the case of a share certificate that matures within the six-month grace period that is renewed at the same dollar amount, either with or without accrued dividends having been added to the principal amount, and for the same term as the original share certificate, the separate insurance applies to the renewed share certificate until the first maturity date after the six-month period. A share certificate that matures within the six-month grace period that is renewed on any other basis, or that is not renewed, is separately insured only until the end of the six-month grace period.

  • What happens if a federally insured credit union is liquidated?

    The NCUA would either transfer the insured member's account to another federally insured credit union or give the federally insured member a check equal to their insured account balance. This includes the principal and posted dividends through the date of the credit union's liquidation, up to the insurance limit.

  • If a credit union is liquidated, what is the timeframe for payout of the funds that are insured if the credit union cannot be acquired by another credit union?

    Federal law requires the NCUA to make payments of insured accounts "as soon as possible" upon the failure of a federally insured credit union. While every credit union failure is unique, there are standard policies and procedures that the NCUA follows in making share insurance payments. Historically, insured funds are available to members within just a few days after the closure of an insured credit union.

  • What happens to members with uninsured shares?

    Members who have uninsured shares may recover a portion of their uninsured shares, but there is no guarantee that they will recover any more than the insured amount. The amount of uninsured shares they may receive, if any, is based on the recovery of the failed credit union's assets. Depending on the quality and value of these assets, it may take several years to conclude recovery on all the assets. As recoveries are made, uninsured account holders may receive periodic payments on their uninsured shares claim.

  • What happens to my direct deposits if a federally insured credit union is liquidated?

    If a liquidated credit union is acquired by another federally insured credit union, all direct deposits, including Social Security checks or paychecks delivered electronically, will be automatically deposited into your account at the assuming credit union. If the NCUA cannot find an acquirer for the liquidated credit union, the NCUA will advise members to make new arrangements.
