Savings Accounts

Primary (Regular) Shares - When you become a member of the Credit Union, you open a Primary (Regular) Share Account, in addition to any other deposit or loan accounts that you select.  The Primary Share Account is the basic account that all Credit Union members have while they maintain their membership.  There is a minimum balance of $25.00.

Balances of $300 or more earn dividends, which are paid quarterly at the end of March, June, September and December.  The primary share account is tiered, meaning that different rates are applied depending upon your balance.  We encourage you to consolidate funds that you may have with other financial institutions here at the Credit Union to earn the highest dividend rate.  For more information on tiers and rates, click on the Current Rates tab at the left.

 

 

Money Market Account - NEW!  Earn more dividends on our high yield, high balance money market account AND always keep pace with market changes.  There is a minimum initial balance of $10,000 or more.  You can add any amount, any time and withdraw anytime, without penalty.  The more you deposit, the higher the dividend rate: balances of $10,000 earn the base rate; balances of $30,000 earn our high money market rate and balances of $70,000 earn the money market PLUS rates.  Consolidate all your funds from other institutions here in this NEW convenient account.  See more details by clicking on the "What's New" tab on the left.

 

Checking Accounts - A checking account at your Credit Union is perhaps the most convenient way to manage the funds that you use for short term terms needs.  With a checking account you can:

Ø      Pay bills

Ø      Get cash

Ø      Pay for purchases at stores and

Ø      MORE 

We offer five different kinds of checking accounts, including Totally Free Checking.  Ask us to help select the account that is best for you.  There is a minimum initial deposit requirement of $25 to open the account and most of our checking accounts do not require you to maintain a certain balance thereafter.  When used in combination with your CUUC VISA ATM/Debit Card and payroll direct deposit, you a have powerful, convenient money management and access tool.  Accounts that earn dividends are paid monthly.

 

Holiday Club - Save for your Holiday festivities with our Holiday Club.  Using payroll deduction you gradually build a balance and earn dividends.  Your total deposits are disbursed on November 1st each year, with your dividends.   The account is automatically re-established for you again after November 1st.  Since the Holiday Club is for those special holiday needs, if funds are withdrawn prior to November 1st, dividends are forfeited and the account is closed.  Holiday Club accounts which have been closed early can be reestablished when November arrives. Holiday clubs earn dividends paid quarterly at the end of January, April, July and October.

Vacation Club - The perfect account for saving for your vacations.  Using payroll deduction you also gradually build a balance over a period of time and earn dividends. You may make up to 2 (two) withdrawals from this account within a calendar year; thereafter, each withdrawal will be charged a fee of $5.00 and will forfeit accrued dividends for the quarter.  All withdrawals will be for the balance in the account on the day of the withdrawal.  Dividends are paid quarterly.

Transactions Your Credit Union seeks to be highly efficient, offering competitive rates and fees with a broad range of products, right here on Campus in a convenient location.  To best meet those goals, we operate - when we can - electronically.  This is why we have a cashless operation.  This means that while you may always deposit cash or checks to your accounts,  we do not maintain cash to pay withdrawals.  How you access your account depends upon the type of account that it is, and the purpose for the withdrawal.  Primary share accounts (regular savings) and checking accounts can both be accessed with your ATM Card.  We can also issue a check for a withdrawal, which you request through our automated phone line called PASS 24/7 or through our PC Banking, called Oasis On Line.  Our two Club Accounts - the Holiday and Vacation Club - are a little different.  Since they are special purpose accounts, when you need funds, just call us and we'll issue a check, subject to the limitations described above.  Also see the Electronic Services Section at the bottom of this page

Funds Availability When you deposit checks to your account, they may not be immediately available for withdrawal because they are subject to collection.  The number of days that availability is delayed depends upon the type of check and location of the institution on which it is drawn.  Details can be found in our funds availability policy.  Deposits of both cash and checks made after 2:45 PM at our office will be credited the next business day.

Oasis On-Line PC Banking - This is a helpful tool to manage your money and accounts from your personal computer.  You can view all your accounts and all your recent transactions. You can also do transactions on your accounts and much more.  When you want to withdraw from your primary (regular) share savings account, just go on-line to request your check.  You must be enrolled on Oasis by completing a simple form.  Then when you want to us Oasis On-Line, simply go to this Web Site and click on the Oasis Account Log In on the Home Page

PASS 24/7 (Telephone Banking) - This is another helpful tool because you can use it from any telephone, anywhere in the world.  Just as in PC Banking, with PASS 24/7 you can access all your accounts and your recent transactions. You can also do transactions on your account, including your check withdrawal request and much more.

Payroll Direct Deposit.  You can have your entire net pay directly deposited to your CUUC checking account.  This means that on the morning of pay day the money is in your checking account, without any holds and ready to use.  This is so much more convenient (and safer!) than receiving a paper check or trying to get to another institution during your already too short lunch hour!  When you need to access it either later that day or later in the month, consider using your CUUC VISA ATM/Debit Card.  You can get cash from an ATM or pay for goods and services at a merchant.  Many of these merchants even give you cash back when you ask.

Payroll Deduction  You can have a certain amount deducted from your paycheck to deposit to your savings and Club Accounts.  You will be delighted to see how fast those balances can build!  Loan payments are also made this way.
