Overview

ATB's premium account. On top of unlimited everyday banking you get free Interac e-Transfers, refunds on ATM fees, free stop payments, and discounts on a line of credit rate and on credit card fees. The monthly fee is priced to match, though it can be waived. It pays off for Albertans who will use those extras. If you mainly want unlimited transactions, the Unlimited Account does that for less.
