Important Information

Properly endorse the check on the back as it appears on the "Payable to" line and the words "For Mobile Deposit Only TVTFCU" are required.

  • Check amounts over $2500.00 are not eligible for RCD.
  • If your mobile RCD is completed before 3:00 pm on a business day, you'll see a credit to your account that same day. If your mobile RCD is completed after 3:00 pm on a business day or weekend or on a holiday, you'll see a credit to your account on the next business day.
    • You will receive an email confirming that the check was approved or denied.  If you don’t receive an email, please check your junk folder.  If not there, call the credit union to verify your email address on file.
    • Check holds — The whole check is held for the first business day, $225 is available the next business day and the remainder of the deposit is available on the third business day. TVTFCU has the right to extend check holds as we deem necessary. All credit is provisional until credit has been received by the paying financial Institution.
