comments section of helping out other
[63]
people as well i appreciate you guys you
[65]
guys have been absolutely great and
[67]
today we're going to be talking about
[68]
something where um this is for navy
[70]
federal okay for those of you that are
[72]
in navy federal or if you're new to them
[74]
or if you're just trying to get into
[75]
navy federal and you're going to be a
[77]
member one day you want to know this
[78]
this is ultimately the way
[80]
you're going to be able to have the most
[81]
success with them uh and building your
[84]
relationship with them and building as
[85]
strong as you possibly can so i got this
[87]
information from sitting down with one
[89]
of their employees
[90]
in the branch in person guy had been an
[92]
employee there for uh over five years
[95]
he'd been an employee and so he's helped
[97]
people with credit cards he's helped
[98]
people with uh pledge loans and things
[100]
like that so this guy knew his stuff and
[103]
this guy was so cool this guy was so
[105]
cool about sitting down and just like
[106]
chatting away about different things
[108]
he's seen sharing his experience and to
[110]
get to talk to somebody with that many
[111]
years of experience who's helped people
[113]
in different areas uh was great because
[115]
you know you can talk to the phone reps
[117]
and
[118]
you can get some pretty decent
[119]
information but you know with the phone
[121]
reps you don't know if the person has
[122]
been on the job for a month or for 10
[124]
years they have different experiences as
[126]
well sometimes the information that they
[127]
give you can be
[129]
vastly different depending on who you
[130]
talk to some of you have had that happen
[132]
i know i've had that happen i've shared
[133]
it here on the channel but this guy that
[135]
i got to talk to in person um
[138]
when i was doing my paperwork for the
[139]
loan this guy was cool man he shared
[141]
some cool info on this now we're going
[143]
to talk about the things you need to
[144]
help uh basically get a perfect credit
[146]
score the internal excuse me internal
[148]
score with navy filter right that from
[150]
100 to 450 that's the range that they
[153]
have for their internal scoring system
[155]
over at navy federal now just like
[157]
trying to get a perfect 850 credit score
[160]
you know with the algorithms and the way
[162]
um
[163]
credit works it's not like there's a
[164]
perfect system of a you do this this
[166]
this this each is worth this exact
[168]
amount of points and you'll eventually
[169]
get to 850 right it doesn't really work
[171]
that way similar concept with maybe
[173]
federal okay these things i'm going to
[174]
share with you he shared him with me
[176]
they said he was totally cool about
[177]
sharing these with me but he was also
[180]
said you know he again this is part of
[181]
him was just being transparent he goes
[182]
hey you know i can tell you like these
[184]
things are important because but i'm not
[186]
going to be able to say like this one is
[187]
necessarily with this this one's worth
[189]
this and this one's where this kind of
[190]
thing like it doesn't work that way or
[192]
there's like a perfect graph of you know
[194]
this product or using this service is
[196]
going to get you like x number of points
[198]
or that kind of thing with navy federal
[199]
he was just saying from his experience
[201]
with these things these are the
[202]
important things to do these are the
[204]
important factors navy federal takes
[206]
into consideration when you do apply for
[208]
something like a credit card or a loan
[210]
or something like that goes this is
[211]
these are things they do take into
[212]
consideration and they're gonna take
[214]
them all together holistically uh when
[216]
they look at your application
[218]
so starting this off and these are said
[220]
not necessarily any particular order of
[222]
you know which ones most important kind
[223]
of thing okay these are they're gonna
[225]
vary but they're all important to some
[227]
extent so if you can do all of these the
[229]
better the more of these you can do the
[230]
better you can you can have a better
[232]
relationship with maybe federal so the
[234]
first one direct deposit navy federal
[236]
loves when you have direct deposit with
[238]
them they like to see that that you are
[239]
depositing your check right into an
[242]
account that you have with them they
[243]
enjoy seeing that they like seeing that
[245]
that's why like on their credit card the
[246]
cash rewards they'll offer you um
[249]
an extra 0.25 percent um on the cash
[252]
back with that card so if you don't have
[254]
direct to pause it's one and a half
[255]
percent cash back if you do have direct
[257]
deposit 1.75 uh sometimes i think they
[260]
also have discounts on loans like
[261]
they'll take a quarter percent off of
[262]
loans if you have uh direct deposit as
[265]
well that might only be for military
[266]
personnel don't quote me on it but
[268]
nonetheless you get the idea that they
[270]
like seeing direct deposit they really
[272]
do next thing we're going to talk about
[273]
that you can have with them is the
[274]
pledge zone they like seeing the pledge
[276]
on with them okay because i mean get
[278]
because they make some interest off it
[279]
right they do make a little bit of money
[281]
off that pledge loan now
[283]
when you pay the interest on it the
[285]
interest is not crazy it's 2.25 percent
[288]
and actually this guy again broke it
[289]
down for me because it's 2.25 because
[291]
we're really good it's two because
[293]
you're
[294]
going to earn 0.25 percent interest on
[297]
the money in the account so it goes
[299]
really it's 2 2.25 but you're earning
[302]
0.25 on the money so it cancels out to
[304]
basically be 2 flat that's it for the
[306]
interest you're paying you're hardly
[308]
paying anything in terms of interest
[310]
with navy federal but you do have a loan
[312]
with them you have a loan that's going
[313]
to be reporting um you know on your
[315]
credit report that shows you're making
[316]
consistent monthly payments and you can
[318]
do a loan for six months up to several
[320]
years and you only need a minimum of 250
[322]
dollars so some people are money's tight
[324]
they're in a bad credit situation six a
[326]
month 250
[328]
um pledge loan can be something good to
[330]
help boost their credit also again it
[332]
helps boost the relationship with navy
[333]
federal as well so direct deposit
[336]
plugs only like to see if you have a
[338]
credit card with them they like that as
[340]
well right because hey they make money
[342]
every time you're swiping that credit
[343]
card somewhere in navy federal is making
[345]
money because they're charging um fees
[347]
of the merchant right those merchants
[348]
pay fees that's how credit card
[349]
companies make a whole hell of a lot of
[350]
money is from those merchant fees so
[353]
when you use a credit card with them
[355]
they like that because they make money
[356]
from it so if you have a credit card
[357]
with them that can absolutely help as
[359]
well so when you're applying
[361]
so far if you've got direct deposit if
[363]
you've got a credit card if you've got a
[364]
pledge loan for most people those are
[366]
three things that are probably going to
[367]
be pretty doable that they can do with
[368]
maybe federal even said even it's a 250
[370]
pledge loan credit card doesn't have to
[372]
be the flagship where you get approved
[374]
for a
[375]
5 000 minimum limit you know it could be
[377]
the go rewards it could be the cash
[379]
rewards it could even be the platinum
[380]
right one of those ones that are easier
[382]
to qualify for with them so if you have
[384]
direct deposit
[385]
you've got pledge loan you've got credit
[387]
card another thing they like to see is
[388]
flagship checking account okay now the
[391]
flagship checking account i think it's
[392]
you have to have at least fifteen
[394]
hundred dollars in there in order to
[396]
avoid paying the monthly service fee
[397]
which i think is fifteen bucks so if you
[400]
don't even if you don't keep fifteen
[401]
hundred dollars in there you're paying
[403]
fifteen bucks you know look at basically
[405]
it's the cost of doing business right
[406]
there's always some kind of cost you're
[408]
going to be paying whether that cost is
[409]
with money or that cost is with time or
[411]
whether that cost is with both right
[413]
there's some kind of cost of duties i
[414]
mean as you watch this video there's a
[416]
cost of watching this video right you're
[417]
trading some time uh it took me it was a
[419]
cost to me to get this information and
[421]
to put this all together and create a
[423]
video that i think people are going to
[424]
enjoy so you know
[426]
there's a cost all of those things so if
[428]
you have the flagship checking account
[430]
they like seeing that more than just you
[432]
know like the standard checking or
[433]
something like that so if you have
[435]
direct deposit if you've got a pledge
[436]
loan your credit card you have a
[438]
flagship checking account member not
[440]
just a regular check account but
[441]
flagship another thing they like to see
[442]
are your length of membership that is
[444]
something that does factor in so the
[446]
longer you've been a member you know the
[447]
longer you've shown the loyalty to them
[448]
the longer you've shown you use their
[450]
products that they offer you show that
[452]
over a longer period of time you know
[454]
they're gonna be uh more generous with
[456]
you than someone who's you know been
[457]
with them for six months maybe they just
[458]
have one credit card and that's it you
[460]
know that that mean it makes sense right
[462]
if you've been with them you know
[463]
several years five years 10 plus years
[465]
and you've used products over this
[467]
entire time now you've built up a good
[469]
reputation a good um
[471]
rapport with navy federal so when it
[473]
comes to applying for something they've
[474]
got you know 10 years of history of your
[476]
spending history they've got 10 years of
[477]
seeing use their products they've got 10
[479]
years of seeing you be a great customer
[480]
with them so that's going to benefit you
[482]
down the road the next thing i'd like to
[484]
see is uh this is pretty much standard
[486]
anywhere right all on time payments okay
[489]
they don't want to see um
[491]
they want us they want all your payments
[492]
to be on time when it comes to your
[493]
credit card and stuff like that or loans
[495]
you're paying they want that stuff to be
[497]
on time because again it shows you're
[499]
responsible and again the longer amount
[501]
of time you've shown you're responsible
[503]
with your money and you've shown that
[504]
you've handled their products well the
[506]
more navy federal is going to be working
[507]
with you down the road in the future and
[509]
the more when they look at you you're
[510]
gonna have a higher internal score with
[512]
them because they have years of history
[514]
of seeing you make on-time payments with
[516]
them across multiple products that they
[518]
have
[519]
and then one of the last things we'll
[521]
talk about before i talk about i'm gonna
[522]
call it a bonus because the guy didn't
[523]
mention this but i don't see how this
[525]
one could hurt so we'll talk about that
[526]
in just a minute the last one we'll talk
[527]
about is having no insufficient funds
[530]
okay so you can get the checking line of
[532]
credit to protect you from that because
[533]
if you have um insufficient funds
[535]
obviously navy federal is not going to
[536]
look at that as something good but if
[538]
you do have the checking line of credit
[540]
i think it's just uh like a 500 checking
[543]
line of credit that you have i have it
[545]
myself with them so say you ever do
[547]
actually you know overdraft that
[549]
checking line of credit will kick in it
[550]
will protect you and maybe federal will
[552]
not look at that as a negative they're
[554]
not going to look at it as a negative if
[556]
you actually have to use that checking
[557]
line of credit to cover yourself on an
[559]
overdraft so if you um you know think
[562]
you might be in a situation down the
[564]
road that you could wind up having you
[565]
know insufficient funds or something
[567]
it's good to have that um checking line
[569]
of credit to protect you from that now
[571]
it is going to be a hard inquiry
[573]
when i end up with navy federal um i
[575]
also got the checking line of credit
[576]
which i didn't even realize i was
[578]
getting actually when i signed up with
[580]
them and it was a hard inquiry but
[582]
nonetheless you know i mean it's fine i
[584]
mean now it's you know it's been some
[585]
time since then so it's not a big deal
[587]
but nonetheless you know that help does
[589]
help protect people especially in the
[590]
beginning if they're just getting
[591]
started on their credit journey or their
[593]
financial journey you know that can help
[594]
protect you so i have to say it's worth
[596]
it to have that in the beginning uh so
[598]
that you have that protection in case
[600]
you ever need it and you don't hurt
[602]
yourself in the beginning by building a
[603]
relationship with navy federal so you
[605]
can start off on a good foot and
[606]
continue to build on a good foot with
[609]
them going forward in the future
[611]
so showing all of those showing using
[612]
multiple products using multiple
[614]
services they have
[615]
is big and when i sat down with the guys
[617]
all the things he like broke it down he
[618]
was like i mean he literally listed it
[620]
out for me it was so great now one thing
[622]
he didn't say he didn't mention anything
[624]
to ask this the time but i don't see how
[625]
this could hurt is if you have a cd with
[628]
them so if you have your cd product with
[630]
them some people like to use that
[631]
because i think you can put up to
[633]
3 500 and you get 3 interest um on it is
[636]
what you can earn so but again it's just
[638]
another product he didn't mention that
[639]
one specifically but i just don't see
[641]
how using another one of their products
[642]
could hurt and you know all the other
[644]
products they have outside that really
[645]
you know like your auto loans your
[647]
mortgage loans and things like that so
[648]
for some people you know they don't like
[650]
to have a loan for a car some people you
[651]
know they're not in a position to buy a
[653]
home or they don't maybe they have never
[654]
planned to buy a home so those you know
[656]
are going to be a bit smaller
[657]
demographics for those but the ones i
[658]
talked about earlier right the direct
[660]
deposit having a credit card with them
[662]
uh pledge loan flagship checking the
[664]
length of your membership all your
[666]
payments on time and having no
[668]
insufficient funds i mean those are
[669]
things that like just about everybody
[671]
can do that just about everybody can
[673]
access those can do those kinds of
[674]
things and set themselves up for all
[676]
kinds of success and you know we're
[678]
trying to reach that 450 internal score
[680]
with maybe federal in the future so guys
[682]
if there's anything i missed tell me
[684]
about it down the comment section below
[685]
i'm hoping this information was really
[686]
helpful to you guys say to break it down
[688]
like that guy did for me um it was great
[690]
it was awesome i'm happy you did that
[692]
i'm happy to share this with you so that
[693]
you can have success with navy federal
[695]
