bounce protection is a special service for customers in good standing to cover the occasional and accidental overdraft. bounce protection is only available on eligible checking accounts used primarily for personal and household purposes.
As long as you maintain your account in good standing, The Bank of Elk River may honor overdrafts up to the bounce protection limit on your account. That means we’ll waive the merchant return check fee typically required when a payment is returned.
This service has no annual fee, and no associated costs until it is used. When used, each overdrawn item is assessed a bounce paid item fee of $33.00. There is a maximum daily limit of five bounce paid item fees charged.
Each qualifying account will automatically receive a $700 bounce protection limit 60 days after account opening if the following criteria are met during that period:
You have at least $1,500 in aggregate deposits.
Your account is not overdrawn for more than one day.
Note: Bounce protection is a non-contractual courtesy, and we may refuse to pay an overdraft transaction at any time, even though we may have previously paid overdrafts for you.
You will receive a bounce protection notice detailing bounce paid item fees assessed for each paid item.
You should make every attempt to bring your checking account to a positive balance within 30 days. If you cannot do so, you will receive a letter from The Bank of Elk River informing you of the situation and your options. If, after a period of time, you have not brought your account to a positive balance, we may suspend your overdraft privilege limit and take other steps to recover funds.
Overdrafts above and beyond your established bounce protection limit may result in an item or items being returned to the payee. The normal overdraft paid item fee or overdraft returned item fee will be charged per item and assessed to your account. To avoid exceeding your limit if you use bounce protection, you should note that the amount of the overdraft plus our standard bounce paid item fee for each item will be deducted from your overdraft limit.
Your bounce protection limit is not included in the current balance provided by Digital Banking, Telephone Banking, or at the ATM.
At our discretion, we may pay transactions for items, including checks, ACH debits, represented items, in-person withdrawals, recurring debit card transactions (i.e., authorization provided to a merchant to withdraw funds according to a set schedule for recurring payments such as monthly installments or membership fees), and certain other electronic transactions, when your account lacks sufficient funds.
Note: Federal regulations prohibit us from authorizing and paying overdrafts on ATM and one-time debit card transactions using bounce protection unless you specifically opt into this service. If you do not opt in, these transactions will be declined, and you will not be charged a fee. If you opt in and we pay an ATM or one-time debit card transaction when the balance in your checking account is insufficient to cover the transaction, we will charge you a bounce paid item fee as disclosed in our Miscellaneous Fee Schedule.
Keep accurate records, track your balance, and always reconcile your records with your monthly bank statement to avoid mistakenly exceeding your limit and incurring fees. Digital banking tools can make it easier to keep track of deposits, written checks, withdrawals and service charges, and ATM and check card transactions.
You may never need to take advantage of our bounce protection service, but you may find it helpful in the event of an inadvertent overdraft. If you don’t want bounce protection, call The Bank of Elk River at 763.241.8522, send a message through digital banking, or visit any of our branch locations.
Once this service is removed, if an item is presented for payment and there are insufficient funds in your account, the item may be returned to the payee, and we will charge an overdraft paid item fee or overdraft returned item fee per item as disclosed in our Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. The Bank of Elk River offers other services to cover overdrafts. See your banker for details.
