Things You Should Know Before You Deposit

  1. Be sure you’re signed up for Check Deposit Online and eDocs within eBranch to enable your deposit option.
  2. Once you scan a check into your account we suggest you make note of the confirmation code and hold on to the check for a month, in case there are any image issues. There’s no need to mail in the actual check.
  3. For best results, make sure the check is laid out flat on a dark background. Bright lighting helps too.
  4. There is a $5,000 per check limit and a $5,000 daily limit for deposits.
  5. Be sure that you regularly update your app in the Google Play or App Store.  Otherwise, some features, including check deposit, may not function as intended.

We Can Even Beat 0% Auto Dealer Financing!

It may sound impossible, but if you take advantage of the auto dealer-offered rebate and then finance with a low-rate auto loan from ActorsFCU, you’ll actually end up paying less for your new vehicle than taking the 0% financing option from the dealer.  And in the process of paying less out of your pocket you’ll be providing income to the Credit Union — income that wil be passed on to you and other Credit Union members with increased services, decreased loan rates, and increased savings rates.  ActorsFCU – Straightforward Savings.

Please Don’t Mark Emails from the Credit Union as “SPAM”

If you mark Credit Union emails as “spam,” you’ll prevent yourself from receiving important account information and alerts from the Credit Union.  If you’d prefer not to receive our informational/marketing emails, which we limit to once every 3 to 4 weeks, please just “opt-out” (you’ll find this option at the bottom of every email).

Emails are the most economical and efficient means to communicate with you, our members. Savings realized allow us to focus our resources in other areas — competitive interest rates on savings products and lower interest rates on loans, and increased services like our branch offices in LA and Chicago. Thank you!
