Check Hold Policy

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING “AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS”

In compliance with Regulation CC, the money from some kinds of deposits at Alternatives may not be withdrawn immediately. We will place a temporary “hold” on certain deposits. This will help the Credit Union reduce losses. A check written against “held” funds will not be paid and a fee will be charged for insufficient funds.

 

1) All checks are considered "local" as of February 27, 2010. That will reduce the hold time for many checks.
2) Funds immediately available from a check deposit is $200.

For all new members and Fresh Start accounts, view the check hold policy.

For all members whose accounts are 30 days or older, or graduates of Fresh Start, view the check hold policy.

Robert Berkley, Your Daily Soup

A few years ago, Robert took a realistic look at business growth and decided he needed a financial boost for expansion. He owns his home, free and clear, and decided a Home Improvement Loan was a good choice to get the funds he needed. "I had to get all new kitchen appliances; everything from a stove to a microwave- and a new roof also."

"Alternatives made it so easy- I felt like they answered my questions before I even asked them." Robert says of his experience. "I was already in a good place with my business. I just needed to get to the next level. Without the loan from Alternatives I couldn't have done it. I was able to make the home improvements I needed, and have money to buy the necessary equipment to expand my business to include ice cream and sorbet."
