SKIP-A-PAY

Remember that classic moment when someone got a little too close to the flagpole? Don’t get stuck like Sparky! Warm up your wallet by skipping your loan payment this December or January with FFCCU’s Winter Skip-A-Pay.

We’re giving qualified* FFCCU members the opportunity to skip their December 2025 or January 2026 loan payment. If you choose to skip a payment, your current due date will be advanced one month forward, just as if you paid. Interest will continue to accrue on your loan and all terms and conditions will remain the same. A $30 processing fee applies.

Clicked the “Live Chat” button, asked my question, got my answer literally within a minute. THIS is what support from a banking institution should be like. Thanks so much for your help!

I cannot thank Tilisha at the Willoughby branch enough for going above and beyond to get my auto loan approved. It was a pleasure to work with her. Words can’t express how appreciative I am.

-Percaker G.

Beth was great to work with! Super responsive. The entire process was so smooth and easy!

-Brooke G.

I cannot say enough good things about the individuals I have worked with – especially when my card number was stolen. The service I have had is why I have moved all my accounts to FFCCU. KUDOS!

My experience with FFCCU’s Parma branch has been nothing but positive. Obtaining an auto loan was really easy, even though I came to the establishment as a nonmember.

I had the pleasure of working with Tiffany Zifcak as I was selling one of my cars being financed by FFCCU. She stayed on top of all the details and parties involved. Tiffany is terrific: likable, trus...

Tiffany Zifcak worked with me on my recent home equity loan and did an amazing job. She made the process quick and easy for me. Will be using FFCCU for more of my financial needs in the future.

-Mike K.

Big kudos to the West Side CLE branch. I secured my new car loan with a rate better than what the dealer was offering. FFCCU has always been my go-to for car loans for this very reason!

-Bridget E.

Customer service is very understanding, and they make sure that your needs are met. I have been with the Firefighters Community Credit Union for over 40 years and I will remain a member.

More Kudos!

*Terms and conditions apply:     Skip-a-Pay is available to qualified members from November 19, 2025 – January 28, 2026. By enrolling in Skip-a-Pay, you agree to the skip payment terms and conditions. There is a $30 processing fee for this service and this fee does not reduce the principal balance of your loan(s). This Skip-a-Pay program will defer your FFCCU loan payment by 30 days and will result in an extension in the original loan term. Interest will continue to accrue at the rate disclosed in your original loan agreement and will result in a larger final payment due. FFCCU will update the due date and repayment schedule accordingly. This is an amendment only, credit insurance premiums (if applicable) and all other terms and conditions of the original loan agreement remain in full force. If you use payroll deduction or automatic payment transfer for your loan payment from an FFCCU account, the funds will remain in your account and will be available for withdrawal. Member is responsible for any payment changes by other financial institutions that make payment to your FFCCU loan. Member must sign up for Skip-a-Pay promotion at least one week prior to the due date of the loan payment to be skipped. The following FFCCU loan types are not eligible for the Skip-a-Pay (SAP) promotion: mortgage loans, credit cards, emergency loans, fresh start payment plans, overdrafts, any loan that previously exercised this option (SAP) within the past 12 months, any loan that has exercised a COVID-19 related deferment. Loan payments over $1000 do not qualify. All member’s loans and accounts must be current and in good-standing to qualify.
