Landmark Credit Union Overdraft Fees Settlement Notes
- Danell Behrens v. Landmark Credit Union
- Case No. 3:17-cv-00101
- Pending in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin
Plaintiff Danell Behrens filed this class action lawsuit against Landmark Credit Union over allegations the credit union did not properly opt members into its overdraft program for ATM and debit card payment transactions. Behrens also contends that Landmark Credit Union improperly assessed overdraft fees when members had money in the ledger balance but not the available balances of their checking accounts.
While Landmark Credit Union says it did charge overdraft fees, it asserts that it did so properly and in accordance with their terms and within in the law, and was transparent in disclosing their overdraft practices with members. Complete details about the case and settlement are provided on the Landmark Credit Union Overdraft Fees settlement website.
