Rapid City Credit Union Offers Help With Holiday Credit Card Bills

Highmark Federal Credit Union, a Raid City credit union, offers credit card help to those who may feel pressure from all of the holiday spending

2012-01-25

RAPID CITY, SD, January 25, 2012 (Press-News.org) The holidays have come and gone for residents of Rapid City. Recovering from the parties and the potential impending credit card balance can feel a little overwhelming but one local Rapid City credit union is encouraging bank customers to stop and think about joining their local credit union.

As a member-owned financial institution, this Rapid City credit union can provide services that big name banks cannot offer. As a not-for-profit organization, credit unions aren't in business to make money off of their members, resulting in lower fees, lower lending rates, and higher savings rates. With the majority of credit unions insured up to $250,000 or higher by the NCUA (National Credit Union Administration), you can rest assured that your money is safe.

"With approved credit, members can receive locally administered credit card within a few short days. When you sign up with other financial institution, including big name banks, it can take weeks before you receive your credit card. We believe in saving our members time and money which is why we provide this local service," said Josh Campbell, Financial Services Manager with Highmark Federal Credit Union in Rapid City, South Dakota.

Highmark Federal Credit Union also offers a local administered VISA credit card that is designed to help save members money with their no hidden fees policy as well as their competitive interest rates. Apply today for your member-owned Highmark VISA credit card, and transfer your balances from your big bank credit cards who are charging you fees and high interest rates.

For more information about opening a new credit card account, members can stop by their 5th Street office or call Karen or Vonnie at 605-716-4444 and let us show you how we can save you money.
