EARLY REDEMPTION PENALTY ON CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT:
Federal Regulation D, Section 2-135, requires financial institutions to have written
policies if certificate funds are withdrawn prior to their maturity.  SUBSTANTIAL PENALTIES, as follows, represent the policy of Dupont Community Credit Union
on certificates redeemed prior to their maturity.
1)     If the certificate term is for one (1) year or less, the penalty is the forfeiture
        of thirty (30) days interest.
2)     If the certificate term is greater than one (1) year, the penalty is the forfeiture
        of ninety (90) days interest.
3)     Except, if the certificate is withdrawn or redeemed within the first six (6) days,
        the forfeiture of seven (7) days interest is required, per Federal Regulation D,
        Section 2-135.

Each certificate upon maturity will automatically be renewed for the same period, at
the rate of interest being paid by the Credit Union, on the date of renewal, unless written instructions are received by the Credit Union to do otherwise, prior to the 
maturity date.


Please make a note of these changes to our fees for future reference.


 50 State Quarter Sets
The quarter collection set contains two uncirculated quarters; one from the Denver (D) mint and one from the Philadelphia (P) mint.  Historical data and interesting facts are included with each quarter set.

The coins are issued in the sequence that the state became part of the United States of America, and additional state quarters are minted approximately every 10 weeks. 


Truth in Savings: Deposit Wisely
Not all savings accounts are created equal.  Account fees, dividend/interest rates, and services may vary from one institution to another.  But comparing accounts is possible thanks to Truth in Savings (TIS) legislation, which requires financial institutions to disclose all account terms and conditions.  And that includes fees, minimum balance requirements, and annual percentage yield (APY) - information you need to start shopping.

APY gives you a good picture of your potential earnings based on dividend or interest rate and frequency of compounding.  APY is the amount of money you'd earn on $100 - if the money stays there for a full 365-day year.  So if the advertised APY is 2.5%, that means you'd earn $2.50 annually for every $100 on deposit.

APY, along with answers to the following questions, can help you do and apples-to-apples rate comparison:

* What is the minimum balance required to earn dividends/interest?

* Are tiered rates offered? 
Tiered rates apply to different balance amounts.  For example, balances up to $10,000 or less may earn 1.00% and balances more than $10,000 may earn 1.25%.

* When does your money start earning dividends or interest? 
If an institution pays the day you deposit money into your account, you're earning on your ledger balance.  If it waits until a deposited share draft or check clears before it starts paying, you're earning on your collected balance.

* How often is the interest compounded? 
Accounts commonly compound on a quarterly or monthly basis.

As far as fees go, check for these common charges:

* Is there a charge if your balance falls below a required minimum?

* Is there a fee for closing the savings account soon after it's opened?

* Is there a monthly maintenance fee?

The Consumer Federation of America and the Credit Union National Association conducted a 1999 survey that shows credit unions don't charge as many fees as banks, and when they do charge, credit union fees typically are lower than those at banks.  So stop in or call us to check out our savings options - with favorable rates and terms.
