If you have been paying multiple overdraft fees, there are ways to avoid overdrawing your account. We offer many free tools and services to help our customers manage their accounts including free online banking with low balance alerts, 24 hour telebanking, and a call center that can provide account balances, transfer funds, and provide information on account transactions.

In addition, we offer a statement savings sweep account that can be linked to your checking account. For a nominal fee, funds will be swept into your checking account to cover the amount of any overdrawn item(s). This may be a lower cost alternative to paying overdrafts and may better suit your needs.

For your convenience, below are some financial planning and money management websites that may be helpful. Call our Ultimate Service Center at (617) 268-8880, toll free at (877) 223-8880 or stop by your nearest branch location to discuss your options.
