Reissued Debit Cards

Members should have received their recently reissued debit cards. All CCU cards were reissued to combat possible fraudulent charges due to the recent national data compromise as a result of U.S. based merchant processors, like Heartland Payment Systems.

If you have received your card and have not activated the card, you should do so immediately. Personal Identification Numbers (PIN) may be changed to a member preferred number once the cards are activated using the new PIN mailed to you. Some ATM terminals may allow the PIN change (all CCU machines do allow this transaction), members should look for the PIN change option under other or additional transactions and follow the prompts on the screen to complete the change.


Start Now!

The Holidays will be upon us before we know it! Why wait to plan until the snow starts falling? Start saving a little now and ease your stress during the Holiday season! Holiday Club accounts can be opened at any time during the year to begin saving.

What about a vacation?
Maybe this year you won’t be going far—but open a Vacation Club and begin saving now for your future fun!

Payroll deduction and auto transfer are available for members to help them save.



A Stimulus Package—CCU Style!

CCU members can get not only great rates on loans, but money back! To show that we appreciate your business; an interest refund will be paid to most members on their loans. The Board of Directors approved the one percent refund to be deposited into borrowers’ primary share accounts on March 31. The refund amount is calculated on the interest paid on loans during the first quarter of 2009.

Your credit union is one of only a handful that pay an interest refund to borrowers. That makes your great CCU loan rate an even better deal. When you are considering a new loan, remember that historically your credit union has paid you back for borrowing and you receive Credit Life Insurance at no direct cost.

This is Champion Credit Union’s way of saying
“Thank you” for your continued support!”
