Know your Federal Transaction Limitations with Regulation D

Your Share Savings and Money Market Savings accounts are subject to Federal Regulation D transaction limitations. This is a regulation for all financial institutions imposed by the federal government; it is not simply a rule at NRFCU. This means that you are limited to a maximum of six of the following transactions per month from the same account:

• Transfers, withdrawals, or payments to third parties over the phone with a Financial Service Representative
• Transfers, withdrawals, or payments to third parties using Call Connection
• Transfers, withdrawals, or payments to third parties using Online Banking
• Transfers, withdrawals, or payments to third parties initiated through email or fax
• Overdraft transfers
• Preauthorized transfers and payments including ACH debits

Be Aware
Once you hit the maximum six transfers in a month from the same savings account, additional transfers from that savings account will not be done. This may result in insufficient fund or overdraft fees, as well as us not paying the check or ACH debit.

The Good News
There are several ways to avoid Regulation D transaction limitations. The following transactions can be performed without any restriction from Regulation D:

• Transactions performed on a checking account
• Transactions performed at an ATM
• Transactions performed in person at a branch (including Shared Branches)
• Transactions performed through the mail
• Transfers to pay loans at NRFCU
• Telephone withdrawals in which a check is mailed directly to you and is payable to you
