* The min­i­mum bal­ance required to earn the stat­ed Annu­al Per­cent­age Yield is iden­ti­fied above. If you do not main­tain the min­i­mum bal­ance, you will not earn the stat­ed Annu­al Per­cent­age Yield. For all accounts, div­i­dends are cal­cu­lat­ed by using the Dai­ly Bal­ance method, which applies a peri­od­ic rate to the bal­ance in the account each day.

** For cer­tifi­cate spe­cials if the term is not avail­able on matu­ri­ty, your cer­tifi­cate will be renewed to the next high­est term.

1After you start the account, you may not make addi­tion­al deposits to a Cer­tifi­cate Account. The Cer­tifi­cate Account you have with us will mature on the matu­ri­ty date iden­ti­fied on your Account Receipt or Renew­al Notice. Ear­ly With­draw­al Penal­ty: We may impose a penal­ty if you with­draw any of the prin­ci­pal of the Cer­tifi­cate Account before the matu­ri­ty date. 1) Amount of Penal­ty. For cer­tifi­cates with a term of 12 months or less, the amount of the ear­ly with­draw­al penal­ty is 90 days div­i­dends cal­cu­lat­ed on the amount with­drawn. For cer­tifi­cates with a term of more than 12 months, the amount of the ear­ly with­draw­al penal­ty is 180 days div­i­dends cal­cu­lat­ed on the amount with­drawn. 2) How the Penal­ty Works. The penal­ty is cal­cu­lat­ed as a for­fei­ture of part of the inter­est that has been or would be earned at the nom­i­nal inter­est rate on the account. It applies whether or not the inter­est has been earned. In oth­er words, if the account has not yet earned enough inter­est or if the inter­est has already been paid, the penal­ty will be deduct­ed from the prin­ci­pal. 3) Excep­tions to Ear­ly With­draw­al Penal­ties. At our option, we may pay the account before matu­ri­ty with­out impos­ing an ear­ly with­draw­al penal­ty under the fol­low­ing cir­cum­stances: when an ac- count own­er dies or is deter­mined legal­ly incom­pe­tent by a court or oth­er body of com­pe­tent juris­dic­tion. c. Renew­al Pol­i­cy Cer­tifi­cate accounts are auto­mat­i­cal­ly renew­able accounts. Auto­mat­i­cal­ly renew­able accounts will renew for anoth­er term upon matu­ri­ty. You have a grace peri­od of five (5) days after matu­ri­ty in which to with­draw funds in the account with­out being charged an ear­ly with­draw­al penal­ty. d. Nontransferable/​Nonnegotiable The account is non­trans­fer­able and non­nego­tiable. The funds in the account may not be pledged to secure any oblig­a­tion of an own­er, except oblig­a­tions with the Cred­it Union.

Also com­mon­ly known as a CD, a cer­tifi­cate of deposit is a sav­ings cer­tifi­cate enti­tling the bear­er to receive inter­est. A CD has a matu­ri­ty date and a spec­i­fied fixed inter­est rate, and can be issued in any denom­i­na­tion start­ing at $500. When you open a CD, your mon­ey is on deposit for a spe­cif­ic time peri­od. Because you agree to keep it on deposit for a spec­i­fied time peri­od, you earn more than you would in a reg­u­lar sav­ings account. If you cash in your CD before its matu­ri­ty date, you pay a penalty.

Inter­est rates on share cer­tifi­cates (also known as cer­tifi­cates of deposit or CDs) vary and are based on the term and on the open­ing bal­ance of the cer­tifi­cate. A list of our cur­rent sav­ings rates and term lengths can be found here.

The eas­i­est way to add or remove a joint own­er is to have them come into a local branch with you to speak to one of our Finan­cial Ser­vices Rep­re­sen­ta­tives. They will also need to bring their cur­rent dri­ver’s license or iden­ti­fi­ca­tion card. Please note that if you have addi­tion­al co-own­ers on your account, all par­ties need to be present before anoth­er indi­vid­ual can be added or removed. If all par­ties can not be present at the same time, a Finan­cial Ser­vices Rep­re­sen­ta­tive will work with you to deter­mine oth­er avail­able options.

The rout­ing num­ber for Sun­belt FCU is 265377633. There are two dif­fer­ent num­bers that work as your account num­ber. If you need the num­ber asso­ci­at­ed with your sav­ings account, you will need your mem­ber num­ber. This num­ber is pro­vid­ed to you at account open­ing, nor­mal­ly writ­ten on a small card. If you are look­ing for your check­ing account num­ber, you can find that infor­ma­tion at the bot­tom of any of your checks. If you do not have access to either of these num­bers, please vis­it your local branch to have a direct deposit form print­ed or con­tact our Account Ser­vices team at 601−649−7181 (option 2) dur­ing nor­mal busi­ness hours.

You can change your address by:

  • Log­ging into Cloud Bank­ing and chang­ing it under the My Pro­file” tab.
  • Fax­ing a writ­ten request to our Account Ser­vices Depart­ment at 601−649−7156. The request should include the old address, new address, your sig­na­ture and the date.
