Yes, we can help you with that, too

Of course, we offer great deposit accounts and low-cost loans. But you can also count on Great Erie for everything from money orders to notary services for legal documents. And don't forget to bring us all that spare change - after we cash it in, perhaps you can take advantage of our great deals on movie and theme park tickets.

Plan ahead and enjoy a little extra cash when you need it. To help stretch your budget, Great Erie offers qualified members the option to skip an installment loan payment on eligible loans.*

It's easy. Simply print the Skip-a-Pay Authorization Form here to get started and either mail, fax, or drop it off at our Orchard Park main office. If you have questions about completing the form, feel free to call us at 716.662.1311 and speak to either our lending department or member service. For each approved application there is a $30 fee to cover processing for each payment you're skipping, and payment can be made by check or by withdrawing from a Great Erie account.

Forms and payments must be received THREE or more business days before the due date of the month you're planning to skip. Interest will continue to accrue on your loan(s), and your final payment(s) will be due one month later than usual. 

PICK YOUR SKIP

Qualified accounts may utilize up to two skips per eligible loan each calendar year - choose any month!

*Home equity loans & real estate loans, share secured, revolving accounts, Residual based auto loans, and student loans do NOT qualify for this offer. Please see the authorization form for complete details.

A secure way to make purchases and payments

A new home for your nickels and dimes
