(i.e. all loans current – no poor credit history with this CU and/or elsewhere). If the Share Draft account is a joint account, all transactions will be binding on all parties to the account.
All initial/start-up share draft orders will be placed by the CU office through their vendor and paid for by the member; any subsequent orders may continue to be ordered through the CU office or may be ordered by members through a different vendor provided that the member continues to order Duplicate Share Drafts and that, if a different vendor is selected, the member bears any and all expenses involved, including expenses incurred if the Share Drafts are improperly encoded and must be rejected, such items will be returned and charged the same fee as if the item had been an NSF item.
Funds deposited in the CU may not become available to you until the fifth business day after the day of deposit. Withdrawal of available funds may be accomplished by one of the following methods:
1) Withdrawal by writing a share draft;
2) Withdrawal by appearing in person at CU office and requesting cash;
3) Withdrawal by appearing in person or contacting CU staff and requesting a CU check;
