When opening an account, you will be asked to provide the New Accounts Representative with two forms of identification. One must be a photo ID, preferably with your current address.

You will also need to provide basic information such as your birth date, Social Security number, phone number, and other personal information.
All accounts with Mutual Federal require an initial deposit to open. You may transfer money from an internal account, or fund your new account with a cash or check.
If you're opening a joint account, identification details for all owners will be required.
All applicants will be verified through ChexSystems, a nationwide specialty consumer reporting agency under the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
If you have unauthorized charges on your account, it is important to act quickly to protect yourself and stop any further charges.
Contact Us. Mutual Federal can find out more about the transaction, close your debit card, freeze your account, or take other necessary steps to protect you and your account.
Contact the Vendor. Unauthorized charges should be disputed with the vendor in question. If the charge has already been posted to your account, it may take time to get the money credited back to your account.
File a Fraud or Police Report. Depending on the severity of the situation, you may need to file a fraud report with the local police department. A report may also be necessary if the thief has attempted identity theft. Be sure to keep a copy of your police report.
Switch Automatic Deposits and Payments. If you had to close your account or bank card due to unauthorized charges, you will need to switch everything that was direct deposited or automatically drafted from the compromised account or card.
Monitor Your Account and Credit. Continue to monitor your new account/card closely. Consider freezing your credit report so that no one can get access to your credit file without your consent.

Overdraft associated fees depend on which overdraft coverage option you have chosen.
If you have enrolled in Overdraft Protection Sweep, we will automatically transfer funds from another deposit account you have at Mutual Federal into your overdrawn account with a $7 per transfer fee.
Overdraft Privilege, both standard and extended coverage, have a $30 per item fee. If multiple items overdraw your account on the same day, each item will be assessed an appropriate Overdraft Fee or a Return Item Fee. All fees and charges will be included as part of the Overdraft Privilege limit amount.
For consumer accounts, there is a limit of 5 Overdraft Fees ($150.00) per day we will charge. We will not charge an Overdraft Fee if your personal account is overdrawn by $5 or less.
If your account balance remains overdrawn for longer than 3 business days, we will charge your account a daily overdraft fee of $6 for each of the consecutive business days the account remains overdrawn, beginning with day 3.
Overdraft Privilege is not a line of credit; it is a discretionary overdraft service that can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice.
