Rates are still low for Share Secured, Motor Vehicle, and Unsecured Loans. The "Loan Guide" shows the new rates. Did you know that life insurance is provided on you for the duration of the loan at no additional cost. Not only that, there are no coupon books, envelopes or postage costs. All credit applications incur a $6.00 pass-through charge for processing a credit report.
Savings:
The Board of Directors has approved the issuing of certificate of deposits with new interest rates! Please check with the office staff for the current interest rate, terms and conditions.
The Credit Union is a great way of stashing away money for those upcoming bills. With payroll deduction, it's easy to save. Use your savings for unexpected repairs, insurance and taxes, just to name a few. Now is the perfect time to start saving for that trip to Hawaii you keep talking about or that cruise you never seem to put enough money aside for.
