FAVORITE SERVICE
Account Activity Alerts
“I like how easy it is to stay on top of my balances and transactions with account alerts. I get alerts via text message, but if you prefer, you can choose to receive alerts via email, phone, or even a digital banking message. I often tell members that, with account alerts, we can all better avoid unwanted overdraft fees. Some alerts I find useful are; alerts when my balance has hit a certain dollar amount, that a deposit has been added to my account, one saying a transfer took place in my account, and even the reminders I set up for my bills.” - Christina Poad | Winnebago Branch Manager Set up alerts using our Mobile App or Digital Banking within the dropdown menu, under services. Prefer a step-by-step guide on how to set up an alert? Check out our Alerts blog at foxcu.org/blog. Restrictions may apply. Federally Insured by NCUA.

Live Monthly Financial Radio Show: Fraud and Scams

Avoiding Vacation and Travel Scams Do some snooping... check the Better Business Bureau® (bbb.org)* for the company rating. Look for photos, reviews, and complaints. Don’t pay for a ‘prize’ vacation... no legitimate company will ask you to pay for a prize. Do pay using a credit card... never pay by wiring money or using a prepaid debit card. They are the same as sending cash, and you cannot get it back. Don’t rush... say “no thanks” if they don’t want to give you time to consider the deal before paying. *Third-party site is not operated/under the control of FCCU.

The best time to look for a different
Driver’s Seat ride is when you don’t need one
In the
“Majority of members who don’t like their current vehicle, usually tell me a story that they ultimately had to get their new ride on-the-spot, and in a pinch. They didn’t have time to consider what their needs were. If you are thinking about changing vehicles, take your time to really contemplate what your true needs are, and contact us to figure out your budget. Doing both will help with the auto-buying process.” Need auto buying help? Contact Mike Pastorelli at 920-993-3508 or email mpastorelli@foxcu.org.
