Bank of Denver may, at its discretion, approve (authorize) your ATM and one-time debit card transactions even if you do not have sufficient funds in your checking account at the time of the transaction.  We will decline these transactions if funds are not available in your checking account.

If you would like to have your transactions approved at our discretion, consider adding the Debit Card Overdraft Service to your account, which may help you to avoid declines. There is no fee to add the Debit Card Overdraft Service to your account and no fee if you never use the service. If an ATM or one-time debit card transaction overdraws your account, you will pay an overdraft fee of $30 per item.

Opt-in today.

To add the Debit Card Overdraft Service to your account, read and sign the What You Need to Know about Overdrafts and Overdraft Fees Notice, and return it to any branch location or you can fax it to 303-623-0624. 

What You Need to Know about Overdrafts and Overdraft Fees Notice

An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough money in your account to cover a transaction, but we pay it anyway. We can cover your overdrafts in two different ways:

  • We have standard overdraft practices that come with your account.
  • We also offer overdraft protection plans which may be less expensive than our standard overdraft practices. To learn more, ask us about these plans.

This notice explains our standard overdraft practices.

What are the standard overdraft practices that come with my account?

We do authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions:

  • Checks and other transactions made using your checking account number.
  • Automatic bill payments. 

We do not authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions unless you ask us to (see below):

  • ATM transactions
  • One-time debit card transactions

We pay overdrafts at our discretion, which means we do not guarantee that we will always authorize and pay any type of transaction. 

If we do not authorize and pay an overdraft, your transaction will be declined.

What fees will I be charged if Bank of Denver pays my overdraft?

Under our standard overdraft practices:

  1. We will charge you a fee of $30 each time we pay an overdraft.
  2. You will have 60 days to pay overdraft fees or the account will be closed.
  3. There is a limit on the total fee we can charge you for overdrawing your account. We will charge only for the first seven items that overdraw your account on any one day.
