Occasional Overdraft Privilege Service (OOPS)
With our busy lives, it’s easy to make mistakes such as forgetting to deposit a check, make a transfer, or deduct your last debit charge from your balance. A simple error or balance miscalculation can lead to an unexpected shortage of funds.
Home State Bank may have the solution you’re looking for with our Occasional Overdraft Privilege Service. Occasional Overdraft Privilege Service is not a line of credit and is not a right or obligation guaranteed to you. This is a discretionary program that can be changed or withdrawn at any time without notice. Our standard overdraft practice is to strive to pay your overdrafts when your account meets certain discretionary criteria. If you inadvertently overdraw your account, we will have the discretion to pay the overdraft subject to the Occasional Overdraft Privilege Service. For more details, click “HERE” for the Overdraft Coverage Disclosure.
Lawyers Trust Fund Account (LTFA)
- A Lawyer’s Trust Fund Account is an interest bearing NOW Account designed for nominal or short- term client deposits held by lawyers in trust accounts.
- The net proceeds (interest less service charges) are remitted quarterly to the Lawyer Trust Fund of Illinois.
- There will never be a deduction for a service charge, nor will there be an interest credit to the account because LTFAs are aggregated prior to remittance.
- Balances will always reflect actual transactions.
