Posting Friday Deposits Today

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23

We will be closing all offices today at 4:00 p.m.

 

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23

All offices will open at 10:00 a.m. today.

 

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22

Because of the impending winter storm, we want to give members access to their direct deposits early, if we received them in today’s file. As a courtesy, today, we will be posting all ACH credits dated through tomorrow that we receive. This gives members access to their funds early so they can make any purchases today for last-minute gifts and to prepare for the storm. Monitor your account balance and history in home banking and mobile banking.  Even if our offices are closed tomorrow, we will post all ACH items that are received as per our normal posting schedule.

We are watching the winter storm heading for Indiana very closely. If there are any changes to our regularly scheduled hours, we will post the changes on our website and our Facebook page. We will also send a text message to members who have a valid mobile number on file with us.

If we close one or more of our branches and you have a question or an immediate need that cannot wait until we reopen, there are multiple ways you can contact us. The best ways are by texting 765.962.2561 or calling us at the same number and leaving a voicemail. Members could also send a secure message inside of home banking.

In the event all offices are closed, we will have a limited number of staff members monitoring these queues and responding as quickly as possible, providing power outages don’t prevent us from gaining access to our systems.

For your safety during this winter storm, we encourage you to use our electronic services to obtain account information instead of traveling to one of our offices. Mobile deposit allows you to deposit checks using your mobile device utilizing the camera and using our mobile app. Enrollment is required. Learn more here – https://www.natcocu.org/mobile-deposit/.

Stay safe and stay warm!

Feeding Our Neighbors Campaign

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, when many lower-income workers lost their jobs, local food pantries have been inundated with more families seeking food. Feeding Our Neighbors Campaign Works to Support Local Food Pantries.

To support local pantry efforts, United Way of Whitewater Valley is launching a focused fundraising campaign starting August 22 – September 30th to address our region’s increased need for healthy food during this challenging time for many families. The “Feeding our Neighbors Campaign” will support 4 local food pantries across the 2 counties served by United Way of Whitewater Valley – Wayne and Union counties with funds to purchase additional food and necessities for distributions.

Natco Credit Union is partnering with United Way of Whitewater Valley to be a matching sponsor.  Natco will match every dollar donated 1:1 up to $5,000.

“There is great power when we all come together to meet our communities’ critical needs and that’s what food insecurity is for our friends and neighbors – critical” United Way of Whitewater Valley President Tamara Brinkman said. “Donations of food are great and are needed but when we give money to our local pantries, they have the ability to supplement what they are giving out with exactly what they need when they need it.”

Pantries that will benefit from funds raised include Circle U, Gateway Hunger Relief Center in Wayne County and College Corner Food Pantry in Union County.  Our sponsor, Natco Credit Union, has also designated Sylvan Nook Church as a recipient of funds.

Persons wishing to make a donation to the “Feeding Our Neighbor” campaign may direct their donations to the “Feeding our Neighbors Campaign”, c/o United Way of Whitewater Valley, 129 S. 9th St. Richmond, IN 47374.  Online contributions can be made by texting FEEDUWWV to 91999 or visiting www.givetheunitedway.com.

All contributions are tax-deductible.

Don’t Fall Victim to Gift Card Payment Scams

We’ve seen an increase in scammers trying to take advantage of our members using gift card payment scam tactics. Our staff has been trained to recognize possible scams. We might ask questions when making large cash withdrawals with the goal of protecting the member and their money. We recently saved a member from falling victim to this kind of scam and losing $22,000!

Watch this short video to learn more about the gift card payment scam so you can recognize it right away.

Scammers instill fear by saying they are contacting you about an urgent financial matter. They say the quickest way to address the matter is to have you buy gift cards and share the numbers on the card. This is a scam! Legitimate businesses will never ask you to pay a fee or debt with a gift card.

If something sounds too good to be true or your gut makes you question an email, phone call, text or other communication, stop in one of our offices or give us a call. We want to help protect your money.

Watch this video to learn about the warning signs of the gift card payment scam.

We’ve Eliminated Some Fees

As of March 1, 2022, we eliminated the $3 transfer fee!

If you forgot you used your debit card for that coffee and you don’t have enough in checking to cover it, don’t sweat it! If you have an automatic withdrawal set to come out of checking or you write a check and your balance in checking can’t cover it, don’t sweat it!

We will automatically transfer money from your savings account to your checking account to cover the amount needed without a fee!*

Hit with an unexpected expense and you need to access funds in your vacation or Christmas club, no problem. Withdrawals from these accounts can now be made any time during the year without a fee.

*Funds must be available in your savings account to complete the transfer to checking and cover the full amount of the transaction or the item will be returned and an NSF fee will apply.
