Get help in a financial crisis!

Should you call Financial Relief Solutions?

Are you losing your job? Your home? Your income? Are you facing an unexpected medical bill or an uphill climb to recovery?

STCU's Financial Relief Solutions can help. Our dedicated team of debt management experts provide one-to-one assistance to those in financial distress. We will review your situation to help find the best options for you.

Here are some questions to assess your need for assistance:

  • Are you an STCU member?
  • Do you have current loans at STCU?
  • Are you at risk of your car being repossessed?
  • Are you facing foreclosure on your home loan?
  • Are you facing an unexpected payment or bill that you cannot pay?
  • Are you facing an unexpected loss of income?
  • Are you unable to pay your monthly bills?

If you've answered yes to one or more of the questions above, please contact the credit union at (509) 326-1954 or (208) 619-4000.

STCU representatives are limited to help only with loans and accounts at the credit union. The sooner you notify STCU, the easier it is to work toward a financial solution!
