Langley FCU Adds Cyber Monday 15-month CD Special

In another Cyber Monday offering, Langley Federal Credit Union (Langley FCU) has added a 15-month Certificate Special (1.76% APY) that is available through December 3, 2017. This limited-time offering requires a minimum deposit of $1k, with no stated balance cap.

While some of Langley FCU’s CDs are offered as IRAs, the 15-month Certificate Special is not. Langley FCU’s Active Rewards, which adds an additional 0.10% to CDs, does not apply to the Certificate Special. According to the promotion page, the 15-month Certificate Special “reinvests to a regular 12 month Certificate at maturity.”

As stated on Langley FCU’s Truth In Savings For CDs document, the Early Withdrawal Penalty reads as follows:

Terms of 12 month or longer, 180 days’ dividends
