Virginia-based Langley Federal Credit Union (Langley FCU) has been offering monthly CD promotions for more than a year. April’s featured product is a 22-month Promotional Certificate, which earns a competitive 5.35% APY. This limited-time offer can be opened with a $500 minimum deposit, with no stated balance cap. (FYI – previous promotions required new money, but the 22-month Promotional Certificate does not.)

The fine print on the landing page lists the 22-month Promotional Certificate details, including,

  • The minimum balance to open the certificate is $500.
  • No maximum deposit.
  • Includes IRA Certificates.
  • Limited time offer.
  • Not eligible for Active Rewards rate enhancement and cannot be combined with any other promotional offer.

As stated in the Truth-in-Savings for Certificates, the Early Withdrawal Penalty reads as follows:

Terms of 12 months of longer – 180 days’ dividends

The TIS also states,

If the account has not yet earned enough dividends or if the dividends have already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.
