We’re focused on helping you grow your money
No question that with rising costs, getting more for your money is even more important. As your not-for-profit financial institution, we’re focused on saving you money. Here are three ways we could save you money right away:
- Paying a fee for checking? If so, switch to our 100% FREE checking account.
- Have a variety of bank and store credit cards to pay each month? Consolidating them into one low-cost card with us saves you money and time each month.
- Auto loan eating up your budget? We refinance auto loans from other lenders every day for a simple reason — we can help you keep more cash in your pocket or pay off your loan sooner.
Bottom line: We are here for you to give you the best value and local HB service you won’t get anywhere else. Put us to work for you and let’s make this the year of you.
The best storytime in Orange County
Parenting OC Magazine readers know what’s good for kids and they recently voted Huntington Beach Public Library as having the Best Storytime in Orange County. We’re not surprised and if you’ve attended one of their storytimes, you know it’s wonderful. They offer fun-filled and interactive sessions for kids of all ages, from babies to all-age Family Storytime. We hope you’ll check out their calendar of events and join in on the educational fun.
Keep your account active
If you haven’t used your membership account in the last 12 months the account could become dormant, subject to a $5 monthly fee, and the State of California requires dormant funds to be escheated or turned over to the state.
The good news: It’s easy to stop this from happening. Just reactive your savings account by taking advantage of our money-saving services, including:
- 100% free Checking Account with exclusive HB debit card and 30,000 free ATMs and free Mobile Banking apps
- No annual fee, low-rate Gold and Platinum Visa Credit Cards
- Affordable Vehicle Loans and Home Equity Lines of Credit
You can also make a withdrawal, deposit or other transaction using Home Banking, Phone Teller, or in person.
We hope you’ll take advantage of the only credit union dedicated to serving HB exclusively.
