On Tuesday, the Saint Paul, Minn.-based Affinity Plus Federal Credit Union became the first credit union in the state to both eliminate non-sufficient funds fees (NSFs) and reform charges for courtesy payment services, according to the credit union.

In a statement from Affinity Plus ($3.8 billion in assets, 233,963 members), the credit union dropped its $35 NSF fee and overdraft fees were reduced from $35 to $15.

A $15 fee will be charged for negative balances beyond $100.
