Regular Checking Account Important Information: Dividend rates are accurate as of the last dividend declaration date. All checking accounts are considered variable rate accounts and rates are subject to change at any time without notice. Fees or other conditions may reduce earning on the account. Refer to Central One Federal Credit Union's Member Service Agreement and Our Rates and Service Charge Disclosure.
Premium Checking Account Important Information: Eligibility: Maintain credit union membership. Primary account owner must be age 18 or older and must establish and maintain a minimum $1,500.00 monthly direct deposit of regular pay, pension, social security or other recurring, monthly income. You must provide a valid email address and sign up for e-statements. Failure to comply with the eligibility requirements of the Premium Checking account for two consecutive months may result in your Premium Checking account being converted to a Regular Checking account without notice. Central One reserves the right to discontinue or modify any benefits under this program and/or convert your account to Regular Checking at any time for any reason without notice. Although you may receive some Direct Deposit (ACH) deposits up to two days early, if these are reversed for any reason, you will be responsible for bringing your account current, and for any service charges resulting from a negative or low balance. Direct Deposits (ACH) from International senders are not eligible for early access. Cashback rewards will not be paid on fraudulent or unauthorized transactions. Irregular transactions that appear to be conducted with the sole purpose of earning the cashback rewards will not qualify for rewards, and you may be required to reimburse us if rewards are paid on that activity. The rate discount on consumer loans that applies when payments are deducted from this account excludes mortgages, credit cards and all lines of credit. Conversion from Regular Checking or Central Advantage to Premium Checking will not be automatic and must be made before the last business day of the month to be effective at the start of the next monthly statement. Student Sense accounts cannot be converted until the student reaches the age of 18. Refer to Central One Federal Credit Union's Member Service Agreement and Our Rates and Service Charge Disclosure.
