Courtesy Overdraft With A Fee
PFFCU offers a Courtesy Overdraft (COD) program, where PFFCU will pay overdrafts, up to a predetermined limit, if there are insufficient funds in your Savings Account and no available credit on your PLOC to cover the overdraft. When a check, Automated Clearing House (ACH) debit or Bill Payer payment is paid by using COD it causes your Checking Account to have a negative balance, which then must be repaid. You must qualify for COD but do not need to take any action to use this service for these types of transactions. You will incur a $19 fee for using this service to cover personal checks, ACH debits or Bill Payer payments.
Our COD program also protects your Checking Account against overdrafts when you use your PFFCU Debit Card at the point of sale. There is a $5 fee when this type of transaction occurs. Federal regulations currently prohibit us from paying one-time PFFCU point-of-sale Debit Card Overdrafts, unless you authorize us to do so by enrolling in this service.
To enroll, complete this form, or call Telephone Member Service at 215-931-0300 or 1-800-228-8801 or visit your nearest PFFCU branch location.

FREE PFFCU Debit Card
The PFFCU Debit Card combines your VISA debit card and your ATM card all in one. It enables you to make purchases (up to $3000/day) anywhere VISA is accepted, as long as the funds are available in your checking account. It's safer than carrying cash, and makes it easy to keep track of your money. With your PFFCU Debit Card, you get free unlimited transactions at PFFCU ATMs, and twelve free transactions per month at non-PFFCU ATMs.* You can also use your PFFCU Debit Card for purchases at supermarkets and other, selected retailers, and ask for cash back when you are completing a transaction requiring your PIN. We provide many opportunities for members to avoid paying a surcharge at non-PFFCU ATMs, including Wawa®, 7-Eleven®, and the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association network. Visit our ATM Locations page to locate the no-surcharge ATMs most convenient for you.
