OVERDRAFTS AND BOUNCED CHECKS
Overdrafts and bounced checks occur when you complete a financial transaction (e.g., write a check) for more than what is available in the account. Your financial institution may pay the amount and charge you a fee, known as an “overdraft fee” or a “nonsufficient funds fee.”
Tip: Avoid overdraft or non-sufficient funds fees by making a habit of monitoring the balance in your checking account.
