  • Set up two-factor authentication (2FA) | Vibrant Credit Union

    How to enable second-factor authentication (2FA) When you use 2FA, you’ll automatically receive a verification code via text or email when you try to log in to your Vibrant account. Before you can access your information, you’ll have to enter that code into your smartphone or browser. 2FA verification codes are set to expire within 10 minutes, and they change every time you request one by logging in. Log in from your browser or use the Vibrant mobile app (available for Apple or Android ). Step 1: Log in to your Vibrant account. For mobile app users Select MORE from the options listed across the bottom of the screen. Select FULL SITE. Select TOOLS. Select SETTINGS. Select SECURITY. Go to the section labeled TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION. Toggle the switch to the right from OFF to ON. Step 2: Access your security settings. ​ 7. Choose the channels through which you prefer to receive your verification code (text, email, voice call). ​ Congrats! You’re protected. ​ ​ For browser users Select TOOLS. Select SETTINGS. Select SECURITY. Go to the section labeled TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION. Toggle the switch to the right from OFF to ON. Choose where you want Vibrant to send your verification code (text, email, voice call). ​ Congrats! You’re also protected. For even more protection You know that little "Remember Me" button when you log into your online account? If you check this box, then the device or browser you're using will no longer require an extra verification code to log in. Now that you're making your account more secure, it's a good time to take a look at the devices you've previously approved. ​ ​ Help! I can’t set up 2FA. Contact us during regular business hours, and a member of our team will walk you through the process. Your agent asked for my verification code. Should I tell them what it is? NO! A real Vibrant employee will never ask for your verification code. You’re talking to a scammer—and if you give them your verification code, they can take over your account. Can a scammer access my account even if I don’t tell them my password? Unfortunately, yes. Scammers may find your login information through a data breach, on the dark web, or through other phishing tactics. Two-factor authentication (2FA) offers additional protection, but it's not foolproof. A common scam is to try bypass 2FA by pretending to be a legitimate caller who wants to verify your identity by sending you a security code, which they'll ask you to read back to them. If you tell them the code, unfortunately, they can use it to log in from their device. How do I set up two-factor authentication (2FA) on my account? Log in to your account and go to Settings, then choose the Security tab. Toggle the on/off switch next to Two-Factor Authentication to ON to require a second security code via email, text, or voice call (you'll have the option to choose the method that works best for you any time you log in). What if a caller tells me I owe money and they need immediate payment? Legitimate organizations, including the IRS, your local tax assessor, or your financial institution, will never ask you to provide payment via a gift card, prepaid debit card, or wire transfer. If you get a a call demanding immediate payment and they want you to use one of these payment methods, it's a scam. In addition, a legitimate caller will never threaten to alert law enforcement, immigration officials, or other authorities to collect a debt. What should I do if I think I may have been scammed? Contact us immediately to report the incident. We’ll place a fraud alert on your account and help you reset your login information. (And no, we won't ask you to tell us your new password.) What information will Vibrant never ask me for? If you call our Member Contact Center, we’ll ask you to verify your identity by asking you a series of questions. The answers will NEVER include: Anything more than the last 4 digits of your debit or credit card Any security or verification code you receive via text or email Your account or routing number Your complete Social Security Number Your account password Your PIN Frequently asked questions

  • Escrow Analysis | Vibrant Credit Union

    Understanding your escrow analysis Join one of our Vibrant mortgage service specialists as she walks you through the typical escrow analysis statement and answers some of your most pressing questions about why your monthly payment may be changing. Note, if you pay prior to January 1, 2024, your online account may not reflect your updated 2024 payment amount. Please call first to verify your updated payment amount. The basics What is an escrow account? An escrow account is a special holding account we use to pay your property taxes and homeowners insurance premiums. We manage this account for you so that you only need to make one monthly payment and don’t have to worry about multiple payment due dates. The amount of money that goes into your escrow account is based on our best estimate of what your insurance and property tax expenses will be in the coming year. What is an escrow analysis? he amount of money that goes into your escrow account reflects our best estimate of your property tax and homeowners insurance premiums for the coming year. Because these expenses can fluctuate over time (based on your home’s changing market value and other factors), it’s rare that the amount set aside for your escrow account exactly matches what is paid out. Every fall, we analyze your account to see whether we’ve set aside more money than you need (an overage) or not enough (a shortage). We also take a look at your latest insurance premiums and property tax bills so that we can adjust your payments for next year to reflect any changes. What happens if there's not enough money in my escrow account to pay my taxes and insurance? If your account has a shortage, your taxes and premiums will still be paid—but you will need to pay the difference back to us. There are two ways to do this: We can either increase your mortgage payments next year to cover that amount, or you can submit a payment for the entire sum before noon on Saturday, December 30, 2023. What happens if there's MORE money in my escrow account than was needed? If your account has an overage of less than $50, we’ll carry the remainder over to next year to provide a cushion for any potential shortages. If your account has an over of $50 or more, you will receive a check for the surplus amount that you can spend as you see fit. Can I choose not to escrow my insurance plemiums and property taxes? In some cases, you can. Contact us and we’ll determine if that is an option for you. I have more questions. How do I reach an escrow specialist? You can email us directly or call 1-800-323-5109. Monthly payments When does my new monthly payment go into effect? January 1, 2024. If you typically make your January payment prior to the first of the month, please make sure to adjust that payment to reflect the new payment amount and avoid any late fees. IMPORTANT: Your online account will not reflect the updated amount due until January 1, 2024. This is so that we can make adjustments for members who choose to pay all or part of their escrow shortages up until December 30, 2023. Why is my monthly mortgage payment going up? While the principal and interest on your mortgage payment haven’t changed, your property taxes and/or homeowners insurance premiums have increased since your last escrow analysis. We therefore have to set aside a larger amount of money each month to cover these increases. How do I update my automatic payment? You need to complete and submit an escrow change form to us by noon on December 30, 2023. If you pay your mortgage through a non-Vibrant account, you will need to provide your account number. If you pay extra toward your principal balance or would like to start, make sure to note the payment amount on your form. My mortgage payment has increased by more than my taxes and/or insurance premiums have. Why? That indicates that your escrow account had a shortage in 2023 (your estimated escrow contributions were smaller than your actual taxes and/or premiums). In addition to increasing your payment to accommodate those higher charges, you also need to make up the amount of the shortage. If you prefer, you can pay some or all of the shortage amount by noon on December 30, 2023, and decrease your payments for next year. Why is my monthly morgage payment going down? While the amount of principal and interest you pay toward your mortgage hasn’t changed, either your property tax assessment or homeowners’ insurance premiums have declined since last year. Enjoy the savings! If I pay into the escrow now, can I avoid my payment going up at all? No, the payments will always be based at minimum of what your taxes and insurance are. Since those typically increase annually, paying the shortage does not mean the monthly amounts won't increase for next year. Escrow shortages Can I pay my shortage up front? How long do I have to make the payment before it affects my payment? Yes, you can pay all or a portion of your shortage. This must be done by noon on Saturday, December 30, 2023. How do I pay my shortage? You can make your payment through our online banking platform. After logging in, you will see your home loan appear on the main dashboard screen. Click on your home loan to expand this area. Select "Pay Now." In the bulleted options, you will see an "Escrow Only" option. Enter the appropriate amount here. Finish your transaction by selecting "Submit Transfer." Upon payment, please contact us to have your 2024 payments updated accordingly. It's that time of year—your annual escrow analysis shows what your monthly mortgage payment will be in 2024. Get answers to your escrow questions Escrow overages When will I receive a refund of my escrow overage? Your check will arrive within two weeks after you receive your escrow analysis letter. Will I receive a check, or will it be deposited into my account? You will receive a check in the mail. I had an overage, but I didn't receive a check. Why not? If your overage amount was less than $50, it remains on deposit in your escrow account to provide a cushion for any potential shortages in 2024.
