Blocked Debit Card Transactions

First Community Credit Union understands that you rely on the safety, convenience and flexibility of using your Express Checkcard, not only for your day to day expenses but also when traveling.

With plastic card fraud continuing to increase dramatically, First Community is committed to protecting your account and fighting fraudulent activity. Therefore, the Credit Union occasionally needs to take immediate action to block transactions in a particular area or at a specific merchant type.

In addition, the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") of the US Department of the Treasury administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions based on US foreign policy. These sanctions prohibit the use of your First Community Credit Union Express Checkcard in these countries/areas.
