Monthly Service Charge: This is waived if a minimum daily balance of $250 is maintained during the monthly statement cycle.

Other Charges: A per debit fee of $1.00 will be assessed for each debit in excess of six (6) per monthly cycle. A closing fee of $10 will be assessed if the account is closed within 90 days of opening.

Rate Information: This account is an interest-bearing account. The interest rate and annual percentage yield are included in the Rate Chart, which is available upon request at any Skagit State Bank branch. The interest rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time. Interest is accrued daily, compounded quarterly, and will be credited to the account quarterly.

Balance Information: We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on the account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day.

Special Features: Upon request, this account may be used as an Overdraft Sweep account tied to a checking account (sole proprietorships and qualified non-profit organizations only). Statements are sent quarterly or a combined statement is available with your monthly checking account statement upon request. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (for example, checks).

Limitations: A maximum of six (6) telephone or electronic transfers can be made from the account each calendar month. A minimum daily balance of $5.00 must be maintained to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yield. 


Interest Information: Rates and fees are subject to change. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change. At our discretion, we may change the interest rate for your account at any time. The daily balance method is used to calculate interest on the account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Contact a New Accounts representative for a current interest rate information sheet that lists the interest rates and corresponding annual percentage yields for accounts.

Checking Sub-Account: Checking accounts consist of a checking sub-account and a savings sub-account. The bank may periodically transfer funds between these two sub-accounts. If your account earns interest, your interest calculation will remain the same. If your checking account does not earn interest, no interest will be paid on either sub-account. The savings sub-account will be governed by the rules governing our other savings accounts. This process will not affect your available balance, the interest you may earn, FDIC insurance protection, or your monthly statement.

Dormant Accounts: Accounts that undergo no activity (debit or credit) for an extended time period will be reclassified as a dormant account. Dormant accounts will be subject to a regular monthly service charge of $5 (non-refundable per State of Washington). The time periods of inactivity are as follows:

  • 24 months—All checking, money market, interest checking, and savings accounts
  • 30 months—Time certificates of deposit
  • 60 months—Safe deposit boxes

Note: Under current state abandoned property law, any property unclaimed after three years (with the exception of safe deposit boxes) must be relinquished to the custody of the State of Washington.
