SYSTEM UPGRADE
On December 6, 2008 our network team will be performing system maintenance. This process will begin 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time, and should last for approximately 4 hours.
During this time:

or show real-time balances
- XFCU ATMs will have a temporary withdrawal limit of $300
- Xceed On Call will not be available
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you very much for your patience.

And now, higher conforming loan limits may save you even more money!
As part of the government’s economic stimulus package, regulations have temporarily increased the limit on conforming loans to help make it easier for those in high-priced housing markets to get more affordable mortgages or to refinance at lower rates.
Under the new rules, Xceed members who want to purchase a new home or refinance an existing loan in high-cost counties will be able to get government-sponsored conforming loans – up to $729,750 in more expensive areas – at lower rates with lower monthly payments. The new rules are in effect now through December 31, 2008.*
If you now have a jumbo mortgage loan at a higher rate, you may be able to refinance at a lower rate under the new rules. This is a limited-time opportunity, so to apply, get current rates or more information, please contact Home Loan Consultant Russell Cerpa direct at 310.607.2067.
* Maximum loan amounts vary by county. Some conforming loan limits have been raised from $417,000 to a cap of $729,750 in more expensive areas. Loans must be originated after July 1, 2008 and funded no later than December 31, 2008. Incentive applies to 1-unit primary residence and vacation homes. Rate is based on credit criteria. Interest rates on “special situation” programs may be higher. Property restrictions may apply; property insurance and comprehensive fire and hazard insurance is required. Flood insurance may be required. Mortgage insurance required on loan-to-values greater than 80%. The minimum loan-to-value is 75% to 90% on primary residences, depending on type of loan and the borrower’s FICO credit score, and 60% on second homes and investment properties. Limited time only. All loans subject to credit approval. Rates, terms and conditions subject to change without notice. Equal opportunity lender.

XFCU receives a four-star rating from BauerFinancial.
While ongoing news about financial turbulence continues to plague the banking industry, we are proud to report that BauerFinancial has awarded XFCU with a four stars, or "excellent" rating. This is a fantastic accomplishment for us, as BauerFinancial, Inc. has been a nationwide presence in the analysis and reporting of the banking industry's financial condition since 1983.
Federally-insured credit unions are required to file detailed financial reports with the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) four times each year, and BauerFinancial subjects this quarterly data to an unbiased and independent analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, a star-rating is assigned on a scale of zero to five stars, with five stars indicating a "superior" rating. And, as BauerFinancial states, "no institution pays for its rating, nor can they elude it."
Of course, this rating would not be possible without the continued loyal support of our members. It is with your business that we are able to achieve and maintain such levels of financial strength - especially in these trying times. We thank you for your membership, and look forward to meeting your financial needs for years to come.
