Bonus Benefits
Quality Coverage
As a valued customer of Whitaker Bank, we provide a courtesy service that may pay items that would otherwise overdraw your personal checking account. Items presented for payment may be paid up to your Quality Coverage Limit (including fees). Naturally, our bank offers Quality Coverage as a convenience service and is under no obligation to pay items when your funds are non-sufficient.
There is no annual fee, only the standard overdraft fee of $29.00 applies for each insufficient item presented for payment. If you do not restore your overdrawn account to a positive balance within 30 days, your participation in Quality Coverage is suspended. This unique service covers otherwise returned checks, in-person withdrawals, ATM withdrawals, or other electronic withdrawals.
Contact your local branch to learn more about Quality Coverage.

During this first call, you will be instructed to change your PIN to a new four-digit number. You will not need to change the PIN for each account you have, you can use the same PIN for all of your accounts. Now you are ready to bank by phone! Listen to the menu options to select how you would like Phone Smart to help you.
