Diversified General Federal Credit Union
offers two types of checking accounts:

Share Draft Account is a FREE checking account
with FREE debit card access
and FREE online banking

Payment Checking Account is also a FREE checking account
with FREE debit card access
and FREE online banking.
This account differs from the Share Draft, in that it pays dividends when minimum balances are met. Dividends are paid on balances above $1,000.00, and are declared monthly by the board. Those accounts that drop below $500.00 during the month will be charged $1.50.

Overdraft Protection

At Diversified General Federal Credit Union overdraft protection is available on all checking accounts.
We have a few options to choose from:

    • Open End Line of Credit. Use our low interest line of credit to automatically transfer to cover checks. It only costs $2.00 per incident to transfer. Learn more about our Open End.
    • Any type of savings account can be attached to transfer automatically to cover checks, also only $2.00 per incident to transfer.

Overdraft protection eliminates check overdrafts and NSF fees, protects your credit and provides emergency credit for immediate funds.

With surcharge-free ATMs, it won’t cost you a penny just to get your hands on your cash. You’ll have savings you can count on, before you even begin to shop. When your credit union is part of CO-OP Network, you have 28,000 convenient, surcharge-free ATMs at your service across the United States and Canada. And when you’re trying to save time, as well as money, that gives you plenty of additional reasons to be glad you’re a credit union member.

Diversified General FCU is also part of the Alliance One network. Alliance One, founded in 1998, is a nationwide cooperative group of credit unions, community banks and thrifts that have joined forces to let their cardholders access each others’ ATMs all over America without having to pay ATM surcharge fees. That cooperative spirit not only gives you more convenient ATMs to choose from, it also leaves those extra fees where it should be – in your account.
