OVERDRAFT SERVICES

At Cornerstone Bank, we provide options to help you manage your account with confidence—even when your balance runs low.

Overdraft Privilege Service

Our Overdraft Privilege Service is designed to provide a level of protection for occasional, unintentional overdrafts. It works by:

  • Allowing certain transactions to be covered even if funds are not available
  • Helps avoid returned payments or declined transactions
  • Provides peace of mind for unexpected situations

All overdrafts are paid at the Bank’s discretion and are not guaranteed.

Overdraft Protection (Recommended)

For additional peace of mind, you may link another account—such as a savings account—to your checking account. By doing so:

  • Funds are automatically transferred to cover transactions
  • Helps reduce or avoid overdraft fees
  • Provides a simple, proactive way to manage your account

Interest compounding


(Effective May 18, 2026)

Existing CD’s with terms less than 12 months:


Interest will continue to compound monthly, until maturity. At maturity, CD’s that renew with terms less than 12 months, interest will no longer be compounded.

Existing CD’s with terms 12 months or more:


Interest will compound continuously and continue to compound continuously if the term remains 12 months or more at renewal.

Renewal:


Your CD will automatically renew at maturity unless you instruct us otherwise. You will receive written notification prior to maturity showing your current maturity date, new maturity date, and renewal term. Please refer to the “Renewal Terms” chart to determine what term your current CD will renew into as this could be a change from your previous agreement. You will continue to have a 10-calendar day grace period after maturity to renew your CD, withdraw funds, add additional funds, or transfer to another account without penalty.

Additional Information Regarding Your IRA Accounts:


We want to inform you of an update to how your IRA account is designated. Cornerstone Bank will be acting as the custodian of your IRA account rather than the trustee, effective May 18, 2026. As custodian, Cornerstone Bank will continue to securely hold your IRA assets, process transactions based on your instructions, and provide required reporting to the Internal Revenue Service just as before. Importantly, this change does not affect your ownership of the account, its tax-advantaged status, or how you access and manage your investments. This change mainly is just an update in account structure and terminology. Your experience and account functionality remain the same.

MORTGAGE & CONSUMER LOANS

MORTGAGES, HOME EQUITY LINES OF CREDIT, AND CONSUMER LOANS

Your rates, terms, and payment due dates will remain the same. As of May 18th, your loan bills will be sent to you by Cornerstone Bank. You can make your loan payment by mail, in person at any branch location, within Online & Mobile Banking, or by setting up an automatic payment from any bank account. If you currently have an automatic payment set up, the payments will continue to be deducted from the same account after conversion, with no interruption.
