The CheckFree Bill Payment program is focused on making your payment on time, every time. CheckFree assumes the risk in paying your bill, whether or not the funds are available in your account. In the case of the payee receiving a paper check, CheckFree will mail the check prior to your due date to ensure it arrives on time and will not debit your account for that check until the due date. If your payee receives payments electronically, CheckFree will credit the payee on the due date you have indicated and then debit your account on the same day. If there are non-sufficient funds in your account, you will be responsible for an NSF fee. Your account could receive up to two NSF fees as CheckFree attempt to debit your account once more the following business day. CheckFree will attempt to recover the funds from your payee. If CheckFree is unable to recover the payment, your bill pay privileges will be frozen until you have paid them the money you owe them. Please review our Fee Schedule for current NSF and Uncollected Funds fees.

Yes! If you have not already, we recommend that you set up overdraft protection on your account. If you pay a bill and have non-sufficient funds to cover the bill, you are subject to the same NSF fee as if you wrote a check and didn't have the funds to cover it. With overdraft protection, you can protect your account from non-sufficient funds by using your Share Savings or Money Market to back up your Checking account. Contact the Credit Union to set up your overdraft protection.

Credit Card Conversion

LBS Financial Credit Union went through a conversion affecting all of our credit cards (moving our credit cards from an older system to a new system). As part of this process, we created new product names/designs and offered new benefits. We did have to issue new card numbers for every Member due to the conversion from one system to another. Members can activate and use their new contactless credit card starting March 26, 2023.

We encourage you to check the card numbers and expiration dates you have on file with every merchant to ensure your payments continue smoothly. Some merchants are able to update the card number automatically (once your new card is activated), but there may be some that require you to make a manual update.

New credit card eStatements can be accessed within the Credit Card Center in Online & Mobile Banking. Older eStatements can still be accessed within the eDocuments section of Online & Mobile Banking (for up to 18 months from statement date).

A black out period occurred between March 24th through March 25th (no new points earned during this time). On Thursday, March 23, 2023 all remaining Visa Gold Points were paid to your Share Savings account.  On March 26, 2023, Members should activate their new Platinum Rewards Credit Card and can take advantage of the new rewards program.

No. You will need to add your new Onshore or Platinum Rewards Credit Card to your Mobile Wallet on or after March 27, 2023.

E-Bills

Most Payees/Billers will use their established billing cycle, so you can expect to receive your bill at approximately the same time of the month that you currently receive your paper bill.

When you log on, you'll see the number of new E-Bills, statements, and notices you've received. You'll also receive a reminder email to notify you of new E-Bills in your account mailbox if they have not been viewed within four days of delivery.

You will no longer receive a paper bill. However you can print a paper copy of any E-Bill, if you like. Your bills, statements, and notices are available online for six months from their arrival date. Contact your financial institution/payee directly for records after six months.

  • E-Bills are regular statements delivered electronically by your Payee/Billers. You'll typically receive them at the same time each month you would receive a paper bill. You can pay them automatically with Auto-Pay (under a certain dollar amount), or pay them manually within Online Banking.

You will not have an eStatement ready for you until the next statement period.

Home Equity Line of Credit

There are three ways you can start the process: apply online, call 800.527.3328 and ask to speak to one of our loan experts, or call us to schedule a visit with a loan expert at one of our branches.

Both loans use the value in your current home to secure a low rate. A Home Equity Loan is paid out as one large sum, whereas a HELOC approves you for a limit that works similar to a line of credit or credit card, which you can then borrow from here and there as you need it (you'll only pay interest on what you actually borrow). A Home Equity Loan is great if you know exactly how much you want to borrow; a HELOC might be a better choice if you have ongoing expenses.

It depends on the value of your home and any current loans outstanding. Get pre-approved online today and start the process.

Comparing the features of each loan will help you reach the best decision:

Cash-Out Refinance Home Equity Financing
One loan and one monthly payment Choose between a one-time loan advance or a revolving line of credit.
Your existing mortgage is refinanced for a higher overall amount using some of the accumulated equity in your home You can borrow your home's equity as determined by the current value and less any existing liens on the property.
Get immediate cash and spread the payments out over a longer timeframe Flexibility of a shorter term to help build equity faster OR reduced monthly payments by spreading the cost over a longer term.
Usually a lower interest rate than home equity financing You can borrow more money - sometimes up to 80% of the value of your home. With a line of credit, interest is paid only on the money you actually use, and you can access it whenever you want without having to reapply.

Home Purchase

There are 5 easy ways to make your home loan payment

  1. From your LBS Financial Savings or Checking account – Payments can be made using the transfer option within Online Banking or Mobile Banking. Please note that money will be immediately debited from your LBS Financial Savings or Checking account and applied to your mortgage loan later that evening, if set up before 8 p.m. If set up after 8 p.m., the money will still be immediately debited from your account but will not be applied to your mortgage loan until after 8 p.m. the next business day.
  2. From an Account at Another Financial Institution- Located in the Mortgage Center section of Online Banking or Mobile Banking.
  3. Electronic Payments Set Up by the Credit Union- Set up your recurring transfers to withdraw funds on the 1st, 5th, 10th, or 15th of the month. You must complete the Authorization Agreement for Automatic Mortgage Payments form at any branch or contact our Call Center at 800.527.3328.
  4. Call Us- Contact our Call Center at 800.527.3328 to make a payment by phone.
  5. Mail Us Your Payment- Mail us your payment each month to: LBS Financial Credit Union, P.O. Box 4860, Long Beach, CA 90804

 

Visit the Home Loans section of our website for details about the products and services we offer. We offer online pre-approvals, rates and detailed information within this section and our Mortgage Web Center.

There are three ways you can start the process: apply online, call 800.527.3328 and ask to speak with one of our loan experts, or call us to schedule an appointment to meet a loan expert at one of our branches.

The meeting will last approximately 1 hour and will be held either at the Escrow Company’s office or a Notary may come to your home. The steps below explain what happens during and after closing:

  1. The respective closing agent reviews the settlement sheet with you.
  2. You sign all loan documents.
  3. You then present a cashier's check or wire funds to pay closing costs (if applicable).
  4. If your monthly payments are to include property taxes and insurance, a new escrow account (or reserve) is opened when the loan is funded.
  5. The loan is funded by the Lender. The funds are transferred to the Escrow, who in turn, instructs the Title company to set up recording of the documents. The Deed and any other documents are usually recorded the following day. Once recording is confirmed, the Escrow agent can disburse funds for any payoffs. Remaining funds are sent to you with the Closing Disclosure.

Prior to the closing, our Residential Lending Department closer will contact you to let you know the amount of funds you must bring to the Closing Meeting. Personal checks are not accepted--cashier's checks or wired funds only.

The closing (or settlement) of the loan is an actual meeting that takes place at the Escrow Office, one of our branches, or the escrow's signer can come to your home or place of employment. At that time, you'll be asked to sign the closing documents and pay any outstanding closing costs you are responsible for.

If you are a first time home buyer and your home loan exceeds 80% loan to value, you will be required to purchase Mortgage Insurance and attend a First Time Home Buyers Seminar. You can learn more about home buying and take the First Time Home Buyers test online. Be sure to enter the Buyers Ed Code: homeloans@lbsfcu.org.

That depends on you and your current financial situation and long term financial goals. The following is a brief analysis of each type of loan, and the benefits of choosing one type over another.

  • Fixed Rate Loans
    Fixed Rate Loans, by their very nature, are the most stable of the loan categories. With interest rates and payments fixed over the life of the loan (generally 15, 20 or 30 years), homeowners can rely on knowing exactly what their mortgage payment will be each and every month. If it is important to you to have your rate and payment constant, or if you plan to be in this home for a long period of time without moving, a fixed rate loan may be the best option for you. See Mortgage Loan Rates.
  • Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs)
    Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs), conversely, often offer low start rates that then change with the marketplace. It is the low start rate that makes ARMs more attractive to many borrowers. An ARM is a great option if you are planning to move from this home within a few years. By having a low start rate, borrowers benefit from increased buying power, with the ability to afford a higher loan amount than with many fixed rate loans. Buyers, however, need to keep in mind that the rates can change dramatically once the fixed-rate period ends. Even with pre-set life caps, which limit how much the rate can "adjust," rates can increase substantially. See Mortgage Loan Rates.
  • Fixed/Adjustable Combination Loans
    Fixed/Adjustable Combination Loans are described by many as the "best of both worlds." These loans enable borrowers to enjoy the stability of a fixed rate loan during the early years of the loan, while also experiencing the increased buying power of an ARM. Start rates on this type of mortgage are often lower than standard fixed rate loans. Fixed/adjustable combination loans are often ideal for individuals who anticipate earning greater income during the later years of the loan, but would benefit from a lower payment in the beginning. See Mortgage Loan Rates

PMI is a necessary expense when you buy a house with less than a 20% down payment. PMI is additional insurance written by a private company protecting the mortgage lender from mortgage default.

Plan on 1%-3% of the market value of your home. For example, if your home has a market value of $500,000, property taxes might be $5,000 to $15,000, depending on where you live. If your property is located in a Mello Roos bond area, property taxes may be affected. Ask your LBS Financial loan specialist about your specific property area.

Home Refinance

The closing (or settlement) of the loan is an actual meeting that takes place at the Escrow Office, one of our branches, or at your home or place of employment. At that time, you'll be asked to sign the closing documents and pay any outstanding closing costs you are responsible for.

To help speed up a refinance requiring standard processing, here is a list of the information you should collect and have ready to provide once you accept our Loan Estimate (following the application). Original documentation, when requested, is preferred and will be returned to you promptly.

Category Sub-category Brief Description
Loan Application Loan application form Loan application form signed and dated by all applicants
Income documentation
  • Hourly or salaried employment
  • W-2's for the past two years
  • Paycheck stubs covering most recent 30 days
Self-employed Most recent two full years of tax returns (individual, and corporation, or partnership)
Retired
  • 1099's
  • Social security award letter or
  • Pension award letter
Other Income Other income requirements If Other Income is needed to qualify for the loan, supporting documentation and history of receipt may be a requirement.
Assets Evidence of sufficient funds when closing
  • Two most recent original statements (all pages) of all checking, savings, or other asset documents
  • If receiving a gift from a family member, a signed gift letter form provided by LBS Financial and signed by the donor
Obligations Evidence of financial obligations (debts) Copy of the fully-executed Divorce Decree indicating amount of child support, alimony, or separate maintenance payments
Property Documentation
  • Current copy of Hazard Insurance policy (and Flood Insurance, if applicable)
  • Copy of Master Insurance Policy (HOA)
  • Copy of HOA/Property Management billing statement

 

Wise investors usually order a credit report to review its accuracy. This step gives them a chance to address any errors or mishaps before approaching the lender. As part of the refinance process, LBS Financial will eventually order your credit report, so it's a good idea to address it beforehand. Note that LBS Financial cannot use the credit report you have obtained and will need to order a credit report as well.

At LBS Financial, you'll find a number of home loans for every type of refinance. The goal here is to match the benefits of a specific loan type with your goals. So, let's first look at your goals or needs:

Your Situation Consider the following strategy
Have little cash Equity loan
Need low closing costs Ask about our no closing cost options
Want to lower your rate and payment but plan to stay over 5 years Fixed rate loan
Want to lower your rate and payment and sell within 5 years ARM
Add a room or other home improvements Equity cash-out refinance or Home Equity Line of Credit
Want to avoid monthly private mortgage insurance Loan-to-value at 80% or less on 1st mortgage
Financing a 2nd home (vacation) 30-year fixed-rate
Want consistent monthly payments Fixed-rate loan

Our LBS Financial loan specialist will be happy to go over the options in more detail. Give us a call or visit a branch today.

You can usually lower the rate by paying more points. Points are fees paid to the lender at closing. Each point is equal to 1% of the loan amount. For a $100,000 loan, a point equals $1,000. Two points would be $2,000. If you have the cash, it's a good way to save money on interest over the life of your loan.

Below is a chart showing all of the types of potential closing costs associated with a home loan and which fees may be charged by LBS Financial, depending on your loan type:

Customary Fees & Charges LBS Financial
Loan origination fees If applicable
Loan discount/origination points If applicable
Application/processing/underwriting fees Yes
Document preparation fees Yes
Appraisal fees Yes
Credit report fees Yes
Mortgage insurance If applicable
Tax service If applicable
Flood determination fee Yes
Escrow fees Yes
Attorney fees No
Abstract or title fee If applicable

When you refinance your mortgage, you're actually replacing it with a brand new mortgage loan. Expect to go through a mortgage application process very similar to that of your original mortgage. Refinancing is often a sound financial choice that can allow you to meet a variety of needs, such as lowering your monthly payments; changing from adjustable to fixed rate loan; taking cash out of your current home equity; or eliminating private mortgage insurance.

There are no limits on transfers from LBS Financial Checking accounts or lines of credit.

Repeating or recurring transfers are automatic transfers of the same amount of money, from one account at LBS Financial to another account. For example, from your Checking account to your auto loan or home loan. You do not have to re-enter a new transfer each month. They are a great way to make sure you never miss a monthly payment or savings goal.

These transfers can be scheduled for a variety of frequencies, including: daily, weekly, monthly, and annually.

To set up a repeating transfer, click on the “Make a Transfer” button in the left toolbar of Online Banking. Select the account you want the money to come from, and then where you want the money to go to. Enter the amount, and then select "Repeating Transfer" and submit.

In Online Banking, click on "Transfers and Payments" and "Make a Transfer" or tap on "Transfer" within the Mobile Banking app. Choose the account you want to withdraw from and where you want to send the money to. If you are sending to another Member, select "Another Member" under where the money is going, and enter their account number and last name. Enter the amount and submit.

If you would like to transfer funds to an external account where you are an account owner, select “External Transfers” within Online Banking and then select “Add new payee.” Verify and enter requested external account information, then click “Link account.” Within two business days, there will be two small deposits under $1 in your external account. When you see these transactions, return to “External Transfers” on your LBS Financial account to confirm the amounts. You will now be able to transfer money to and from your external account by selecting it on the “Make a Transfer” page in Online Banking or by clicking “Transfer” in the Mobile Banking app.

Share Certificates

If the term of the account is three (3) months or less, the penalty is equal to thirty (30) days of dividends.

If the term of the account is less than one (1) year, but longer than three (3) months, the penalty is equal to ninety (90) days of dividends.

If the term of the account is one (1) year or greater, the penalty is the amount equal to one hundred and eighty (180) days dividends.

If the amount withdrawn reduces the principal amount below the stated minimum, we will cancel your Share Certificate and the penalty will apply to the entire balance in the certificate account. The remaining funds will be transferred to your Share Savings account.

The best way to earn the most while always freeing up some of your funds is through Certificate Laddering. Laddering is a strategy that lets you take advantage of higher dividend rates and keep your money more readily accessible.

Say you have $10,000 to invest in Share Certificates. Put $2,500 each into Share Certificates that mature in 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. Six months later, your first Share Certificate matures, yielding you $2,500 plus dividends earned. If you need the money, you cash in. If you don't, you reinvest in a new 24 Month Share Certificate at a higher dividend rate.

At 12 months, another Share Certificate matures. Again, if you don't need the money, you reinvest in a new 24 Month Share Certificate.

By the end of 24 months, all your money is earning at the 24 month rate. Yet a Share Certificate matures each 6 months, so you can tap into the cash if you need it. If you prefer to tie up your money for longer time spans, you could invest in one, two, three, and five year Share Certificates.

You can check your balance 24/7 days week by using our automated phone banking, HomeTeller. You can also speak to one of our representatives during normal business hours.

The routing number and transit number for LBS Financial is 322276855.

If you purchased your vehicle from a dealership, please contact that dealership directly to determine the status of your registration. The dealership is responsible for completing and filing the paperwork necessary for properly registering your vehicle.

If you purchased your vehicle from a private party, please contact the DMV Services Department of the Credit Union.

To initiate a name change, please visit any branch of the Credit Union or contact the DMV Services Department of the Credit Union.

Titles are issued by the State of California DMV, typically within 7 to 10 business days after the date the lien is released by the Credit Union. NOTE: The Credit Union may not release its lien interest in a vehicle for up to 10 days to allow for a check to clear, etc. If an appropriate amount of time has passed and you have not yet received your title, please contact the DMV Services Department of the Credit Union.

Before the Credit Union can release its lien interest in a vehicle, the loan which is secured by the vehicle must be paid in full, including any additional fees and charges (if any). To obtain an immediate release of the Credit Union's lien, the loan must be paid with cash or a Cashier's Check. Upon release of the Credit Union's lien we can issue a Lien Satisfied form which can be used to transfer title to the vehicle. The actual title will be issued by the DMV (see question above).

Title, registration and lien issues vary greatly from state to state. You should contact the Department of Motor Vehicles in your new state of residence to determine what forms may be needed to properly register the vehicle and record the Credit Union's lien. Once you have identified what needs to be done, please contact the DMV Services Department of the Credit Union at 800.527.3328, we will be more than happy to assist you with this process.

Both cards let you withdraw money from an ATM, but our Debit Cards are also accepted at any merchant where you see the Visa symbol.

Youth Savings

For Youth Accounts (age 0-12), the parent/legal guardian on the account may get an ATM card (in their name) on the account. This may require qualification. The child cannot get an ATM card in their name until they turn 13 and have a Teen account.

Yes. If your youth or teen is not yet a Member (even if you are), you can open the account online. Accounts may also be opened at a branch with the parent/legal guardian present.

In Online Banking, click on "Transfers and Payments" and "Make a Transfer" or tap on "Transfer" within the Mobile Banking app. Choose the account you want to withdraw from and where you want to send the money to. If you are sending to another Member, select "Another Member" under where the money is going, and enter their account number and last name. Enter the amount and submit.

If you would like to transfer funds to an external account where you are an account owner, select “External Transfers” within Online Banking and then select “Add new payee.” Verify and enter requested external account information, then click “Link account.” Within two business days, there will be two small deposits under $1 in your external account. When you see these transactions, return to “External Transfers” on your LBS Financial account to confirm the amounts. You will now be able to transfer money to and from your external account by selecting it on the “Make a Transfer” page in Online Banking or by clicking “Transfer” in the Mobile Banking app.

You can access all of your LBS Financial sub-accounts. If you have multiple accounts at the Credit Union, make sure to click on Link Memberships to bring in all accounts for which you are an owner. View our How to Link Memberships video.

You will need your child's birth certificate, school ID, or California State ID, as well as their social security number. Bring a minimum deposit of $7 ($1 one-time Membership fee per Member on the account and $5 minimum deposit). Parent/guardian must be a joint owner on the account and will also need to bring their government-issued ID and social security number. If parent/guardian is already a Member, you will only need a minimum of $6 to open the account.
