*For the Bump Up Certificate, you may elect to change the rate of the certificate once during the original term of the certificate. To change the rate on the Bump Up, an owner of the certificate must contact SDFCU to request the increase. The rate on the Bump Up will be changed on the date SDFCU receives the request. The rate will be changed to the rate currently in effect for a fixed rate certificate of the same term as the Bump Up certificate and will remain in effect until maturity. The 17-Month bump up would change to the 24-Month rate, 30-Month bump up would change to the 36-Month rate and the 45-Month bump up would change to the 48-Month rate. The bump up rate will not be retroactive and the updated rate starts calculating the day the rate is updated. Minimum opening balance is $500.
