WHAT IS THE DAILY LIMIT ON MY DEBIT CARD?

You can withdraw up to $300 in cash daily from cash machines as long as the money is available in your account, and you may purchase up to $2500 every 24 hours and on weekends. Because some checks that you write may not clear right away, be sure that you have enough on deposit to avoid any NSF or Overdraft fees.

WHERE CAN I GET CASH WITH MY DEBIT/ATM CARD?

Your Coastal Debit Mastercard is accepted at millions of ATMs and merchants worldwide.  You can use any Coastal Community Bank ATM or MoneyPass® ATM without a fee. You will incur fees at non Coastal or MoneyPass ATMs. You may also save on cash withdrawal fees by asking for cash back when you use your Debit card. This varies by merchant.

CAN I USE MY DEBIT CARD OUTSIDE THE U.S.?

Yes, in many cases you can, but notify your local branch before you go so that your card will work, even in Canada. Some countries don’t have secure networks, and for security, you will need to give us some information about your travel plans before you use your card outside of the country. We always recommend that you have at least one credit card available to use for secure transactions during international travel.

I GOT CHARGED TWICE FOR ONE TRANSACTION ON MY DEBIT CARD, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Notify your branch immediately, providing them with the transaction date, name of the merchant, the dollar amount, and a copy of your receipt.

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY CARD IS LOST OR STOLEN?

Notify your branch immediately, they will work with you to determine if you need to close your checking account. If your card is missing over the weekend or after bank hours call 1.800.500.1044 to report the card lost or stolen, then follow up with your branch on the next business day. Or, if you downloaded the SecurLOCK Equip mobile app and registered your debit card previously, you can use the app to turn your card off. You still need to contact your branch to receive a new card and verify recent transactions.

If your credit card is lost or stolen contact 1.800.883.0131 immediately.

CAN I CUSTOMIZE MY PIN NUMBER?

Yes, take your card into any branch and they can help you reset your PIN number.

A

HOW DO I REORDER CHECKS?

You can order online or call or visit your local branch.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE A CHECK TO CLEAR?

That depends upon who you wrote it to, and when and where they deposit the check. Some checks can clear the same day you wrote them. As always, Coastal encourages you not to authorize any checks or payments against your account until you have the money available in the account.

HOW DO I PLACE A STOP PAYMENT ON A CHECK I HAVE WRITTEN?

If the check hasn’t cleared your account, you can request a stop payment through your online banking, by calling your branch or visiting the branch in person. Be aware that if you don’t visit an office in person, you will still need to sign the stop payment form within 14 days. We will send the completed form for you to sign and return.

HOW DO I SEND AN INTERNATIONAL WIRE?

You can visit any Coastal Community Bank branch and a customer service representative will assist you.

In addition, wires can be originated directly from your account with our Online Banking platform. Ask your banker for more details or contact us at 425.257.9000.

WHAT IF I NEED TO SEND AN INTERNATIONAL WIRE IN FOREIGN FUNDS?

No problem! We can do that. We have the ability to send wires in many foreign currencies. Just specify which currency when you visit the branch and how much you’d like to send.

WHAT IS NEEDED TO SEND AN INTERNATIONAL WIRE?

It’s best to have the beneficiary provide the full incoming wire instructions directly from their bank. That way, we can ensure that everything is captured correctly the first time. Some countries may have different requirements.

WHAT ARE THE CUTOFF TIMES TO SEND A WIRE INTERNATIONALLY?

12:00 pm PT is the cutoff time to send a wire internationally.

WHAT IS THE COST TO SEND AN INTERNATIONAL WIRE?

There is a $30 fee associated with all International Wires.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR THE PAYMENT TO REACH THE BENEFICIARY?

In most cases, an international wire is received at the beneficiary bank the following business day, and sometimes the same day. However, a foreign beneficiary bank does have up to 30 days to credit the appropriate account. This isn’t typical, but we do want to make you aware.

WHY WAS THE FULL AMOUNT THAT I SENT, NOT RECEIVED BY THE BENEFICIARY?

To send wires internationally, a beneficiary bank must have a correspondent banking relationship. Other financial institutions involved in the wire transfer may also charge fees and/or foreign taxes and deduct those fees from the wire transfer amount. You may hear these referred to as “lift” fees.

  • Coastal Community Bank does not have any control over this charge as it’s not assessed by us.
  • We also do not have access to what other banks charge for lift fees; though these are common we are not privy to what other banks charge.
  • Coastal Community Bank assesses one fee on the outgoing wire.
  • Our correspondent Bank, Pacific Coast Banker’s bank does not assess any additional fees.
  • A beneficiary may have a preferred correspondent bank and their lift fees may be less.
    • It’s best to check with the beneficiary before sending the payment.

WHAT CAN I DO TO PREVENT WIRE FRAUD?

The best way to prevent wire fraud is to know the beneficiary. Know who you’re sending money to.

  • Never rely on an email communication for wire details.
  • Always call to verify any new or changed wire instructions not obtained in person. When calling, use a familiar phone number.

Request an address change form be mailed to you by calling 425.257.9000, mail us a signed notice of your new address, or visit any branch to update your address. For your security, we always require each person’s signature and identification to change addresses.

IS MY DEPOSIT AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY?

Generally, your deposit is available on the same business day. Note: In some cases, it may be necessary to place a hold on your deposit. The first $200 is usually available the same or next business day, but the rest may not be available for several days. Contact your branch if you have questions about a deposit or hold.
