Pay NO Loan Costs - Could Save You Over $200!
Getting a loan always involves coming up with money to reimburse the lender for costs like getting your credit report, recording fees, etc. These costs can add up to more than $200 in some cases. NOT FOR OUR LOYAL MEMBERS!! Now R-S Bellco will absorb those costs for our MLR-qualifying members on new loans. Requires new loan proceeds of $20,000 or more and reimbursement of valuation (appraisal) costs.

Minimum credit limit is $10,000. Other terms apply. Rates are effective as of April 1, 2012. All rates are subject to change without notice.

Courtesy Pay is Here!!
Courtesy Pay is here! Participating members received information about the service in a mailing sent in early July. JUST ANOTHER FREE SERVICE FROM YOUR CREDIT UNION!
Why Courtesy Pay?
Have you ever had a check or other payment returned due to insufficient funds? That can be really embarrassing, frustrating and can result in additional fees from the merchant or retailer. R-S Bellco understands that members need an occasional safety net to avoid this type of situation, which is why we offer Courtesy Pay.
What is Courtesy Pay?
Courtesy Pay is a non-contractual overdraft program that we offer to our members with eligible share draft (checking) accounts. As long as you maintain your account in good standing, we may cover insufficient items up to your approved limit of $500.00. We will charge our normal NSF fee of $30.00 and send you a notice each time an overdraft occurs. You are required to make a deposit and bring your account to a positive balance within 30 days.
Are Other Overdraft Protection Options Available?
Yes, we offer overdraft protection alternatives, such as overdraft transfer from other share (savings) accounts, which may be less expensive than Courtesy Pay. To learn more about automatic transfer services or to arrange for service, ask us for an authorization form.
