We regularly review and update our agreements to reflect changes in: federal or state regulations, ProFed services and technology, and language clarity and member protections. This update helps ensure you continue to have clear, accurate information about your rights and responsibilities as a member.
Not at all. This update does not mean anything is wrong. Your account remains the same and will continue to function as usual.
While many of the updates involve minor clarifications or language improvements, we want to highlight three areas where significant changes were made:
1. UNDERSTANDING AND AVOIDING OVERDRAFT AND NON-SUFFICIENT FUNDS (NSF) FEES: This section was updated to include recently enacted fee limitations. For example, we have introduced a daily cap on the number of overdrafts and non-sufficient funds fees that you can be charged in a single day. We waive ODP and NSF fees associated with a transaction that can be paid by taking the account negative up to $5.00. We also clarified the posting order of transactions to help you better manage your account and avoid unnecessary fees.
2. DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION: We revised our dispute resolution process to include mandatory mediation and binding arbitration, along with a Class Action Waiver and a Jury Trial Waiver. These updates are designed to allow for fair, efficient, and individualized resolution of disputes between you and ProFed.
3. MEMBER EXPULSION: From time to time, circumstances may arise where we need to expel a member to protect the safety and well-being of our credit union, our employees, and our members. We clarified this process in the agreement to ensure transparency and preparedness in such situations. This action is never taken lightly, but for safety reasons, this option must be available.
No immediate action is required. Continued use of your account after the effective date means you agree to the updated terms. If you have any questions about the new agreement, please do not hesitate to contact your local branch or call us at (260) 373-1633.
No. This agreement applies to all ProFed members, and individual opt-outs aren’t available. If you do not want to be bound by the agreement, the only option is to close your membership with ProFed.
Your account number, rate, or product type will not be changed. The agreement update simply governs the terms of your relationship with ProFed and the services we provide.
