Mike's Article


Your credit union, WV Central, continues to grow in the number of members and in our financial strength. With this strong growth, WV Central continues to provide top of market rates to our members so to support you in your financial lives. We are very pleased that we have been able to provide high dividend rates, low loan rates and low fees during a time where many of members have suffered through the effects of COVID and most recently the economy and inflation. 


Today, WV Central is positioned to look for additional growth so that we can continue to support our membership and our communities in an excellent manner. During the month of September, we are looking for new deposits into the credit union. 

To entice new deposits we are offering a 15 month certificate with an APY of 2.50%. To take advantage of this certificate, you must bring in dollars not already on deposit at the credit union. We intend to run this for the full month but may end it sooner depending on the amount of deposits received so please do not wait to purchase a certificate and to benefit from this excellent rate. 


While offering a strong rate for new deposits is needed at times, we do not want to forget about the members that may not have new dollars to bring to the credit union. In many cases, that is due to all of our investable dollars are already at WV Central. We will not forget about any of our members as we will be offering special rates in October to celebrate International Credit Union Day. We will be thanking our members in October by increasing a new certificate offering by a set number of percentage points times the number of years of membership. We will be also reducing new loan rates (some loan types are excluded) using the same method. We will be announcing more specifics about our October offerings in the very near future.


Now is definitely the time to work with the credit union to improve your financial position. A recent study showed that 61% of Americans surveyed stated that they are living from paycheck to paycheck. While WV Central can not solve all financial woes, we can work with you to improve your financial conditions. We are helping a number of members by financing loans that they have at other lenders into WV Central and saving them significant money. So far in 2022, we have saved our members $1 Million dollars in loan payments and each of those dollars goes right into the pockets of those members to help them meet day to day cost of living.

Hurshel Skinner' Story

My Credit Union experience started in 1968 as a member of Public Debt Federal Credit Union, moving on to Matcom Federal Credit Union in 1986 at Edgewood, MD, and back to West Virginia Central in 1994 when I retired. West Virginia Central is like family to us, we have used almost every service they have to offer, the staff is very professional, and always has a smile and a hello. I love the locations, and use all of them. We wouldn't do our banking anywhere else.
