New Card Activation – Changes Ahead

Card activation just got easier.

In the future, members must use the cell phone number the Credit Union has on file to activate a new debit card. This includes new cards issued when a card expires.

It is important to make sure your information is up to date.

If you think we may have an old phone number, please contact us at (573) 636-5338 to update before your card expires.

This number will also be used to accept any fraud text alerts. This is an added security measure and will help you prevent card fraud.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us at (573) 636-5338.

Be Fraud-Aware This Tax Season

Another tax season is here, and scammers are finding ways to try and collect your personal information.

It’s time to be cautious, and watch out for common scams like:

  • Unclaimed Refund Scams – Fake IRS letters asking for personal information
  • IRS Impersonation Calls – Threats of arrest unless you make a payment
  • Fictitious Tax Collection Calls – The IRS will never attempt to collect payment over the phone or with a prepaid card.

Being aware is the first step in fraud protection.

Verify all communications and report suspicious activity to the IRS at (800) 366-4484.

New Card Security Features

We’ve enhanced card security for our members with new debit card controls.

Members can disable and enable their debit cards when logged in to online banking or the mobile app. In just a few clicks, you can turn your card off to prevent card use.

This is a great way to protect against fraudulent activity or for peace of mind if you’ve temporarily misplaced your debit card.

Here’s How to Disable Your Card:

  • Login to Online Banking
  • Choose ‘Remote Control Cards’ from the Upper Left Menu
  • Change Your Card Status from ‘Enabled’ to ‘Disabled’
  • Confirm by Clicking Submit in the Pop Up
  • Take the Same Steps to Enable Your Card

 

Here Are Three Reason to Use this Feature:

  • When Traveling for Enhanced Card Security
  • If Your Card is Misplaced – Temporarily Disable Until Located
  • If You Suspect Fraud – Disable to Prevent Unwanted Purchases

Keep in mind – recurring subscriptions like gym memberships, streaming TV services, and monthly fixed donation amounts will continue to process even if your card is disabled. These charges were preauthorized when you signed up for the service.

Variable charges set up for auto pay such as utility bills or electric bills will not process if your card is disabled. These charges are not preauthorized since the amount due changes every month.

Returns, credits, dispute adjustments, and interest will continue to process even if your card is disabled.

Disabling your card strictly prevents point-of-sale transactions and variable auto-pay charges.

Don’t forget – when you’re ready to use your card again, you have to enable it or your transactions will be declined at the register.
