CINCINNATI, May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- First Financial Bank (Nasdaq: FFBC) is making substantial changes to its overdraft programs to eliminate or reduce its overdraft fees, the latest in a series of steps from the bank to help its clients and communities thrive and improve financial wellness. The changes take effect June 1, 2022.
"We understand that there are times in life when an interruption in income or unanticipated expenses may present challenges. We want to help clients rebound from these difficult moments and improve their financial futures, and believe these broad changes to overdraft fees can help provide this assistance," said Archie Brown, president and CEO at First Financial Bank.
The changes include elimination of both non-sufficient funds fees when an item is returned unpaid and notification fees when an account remains overdrawn. Other fees have been reduced, and a full list of the changes will be available beginning June 1 at bankatfirst.com, in all First Financial banking centers, and in clients' June statements.

First Financial account holders can activate, at no charge, Dynamic Transfer, an overdraft protection feature that links each account to another checking, savings or money market account to cover any shortfall.
