Urgent Request for our Members!
The United States Congress is considering legislation which would unfairly limit members' access to overdraft protection!
When a member uses our overdraft privilege program, we pay your non-sufficient item rather than return the item on checking accounts and charge the same fee as that is charged for returned items.
Overdraft programs are intended to spare members the hassle and embarrassment of returned items as well as help them avoid additional fees charged by merchants. To express your opposition to this pending legislation, please visit the Credit Union Grassroots Action Center, http://capwiz.com/cuna or call 877-223-5275.
Fraudulent Emails!
The Alabama Credit Union League has been notified today by several credit unions that a number of text messages and emails are circulating under subjects like:
- Account De-activation
- Account Status Alert
- Changes to Terms and Conditions
- Irregular Activity
The message could be from phone number 1-888-645-1787.
These e-mails and text messages say they are from the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) and ask that the member call a number in order to have their account reactivated. Some may request that the member leave callback information or provide financial information directly. All of these e-mails are fraudulent. Do not respond to these messages!
As you know, CUNA is the trade association for credit unions in the US.
CUNA does not maintain any type of customer/member financial information and would never ask for this type of information.
Additionally, Rocket City Federal Credit Union would never solicit your personal identification information via email. If you did respond to such a solicitation, please contact the credit union immediately at 256-533-0541.
