Good Morning,


Thank you for your comments and suggestions on our Financial Literacy emails. 


The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is a United States government agency that makes sure banks, lenders, and other financial companies treat you fairly. The CFPB provides free resources to help you manage your credit cards, whether you are shopping for a new card or managing your current credit. Read more about Credit Card Basics below.

Credit Card Basics

A company can typically change your credit card terms for future purchases, but they’re generally required to notify you 45 days in advance of any significant changes. Read more HERE...

Stay safe and be well,
