If you make more than six (6) transfers per month, the Excessive Activity Fees may apply.
3 The monthly maintenance service fee is waived for the first two statement cycles to allow you to meet your account requirements. After the first two statement cycles, the monthly maintenance service fee is waived if the requirements are met.
4 At the Bank’s discretion and subject to availability, complimentary Safe Deposit Box is only available for box size 2” x 5” or 3” x 5” (“small” size). In lieu of the complimentary box, you may choose instead a 30% discount on a different box size. This benefit is limited to only one box per account relationship, and in the case of multiple account-holders, limited to one box.
5 When you use a Non-Abacus ATM, you may also be charged a surcharge fee by the Institution that owns the terminal or network including balance inquiries. We will waive up to $6 for this surcharge fee.
6 Your mobile carrier's message and data rates may apply.
7 We may charge an International service fee equal to 1% of the amount of the transaction when you use your debit card for any international transaction. An international transaction arises when you purchase goods from a vendor that is located outside of the U.S. or if you use an ATM that is located outside of the U.S. This includes transactions done on the Internet when the vendor is located outside of the U.S. This fee applies regardless of whether the transaction is paid for in U.S. currency. The exchange rate into U.S. currency will be the MasterCard rate in effect on the date of the transaction.
