How to Reach Vic?
Services currently available include:
Note: If calling Vic outside of regular business hours, your call will be directed to our after-hours Visa® card fraud line.
To ensure you only access your accounts, Vic completes account-specific assistance only after you've securely logged into online banking, the mobile app, or called Vic and completed the below multi-step authentication process.
Vic is EMUCU's digital phone assistant- an automated system that securely interacts with callers using natural language processing. Unlike traditional touch tone menues, Vic understands spoken requests and provides real-time responses in a conversational manner. Vic is a modern, intuitive experience that is designed to reflect how members communicate today. Vic is built to provide a smoother, more efficient interaction without needing to navigate complex phone trees or wait on hold for a representative.
Yes! Vic is built with member security in mind. All interactions are encrypted and follow industry best practices to ensure your personal and financial information is protected. Vic is designed to meet the same high security standards as our other digital banking services.
If you're having trouble with verification, such as issues entering your account information or secondary authentication, try calling back and carefully re-entering the requested information using your keypad to avoid potential errors. Make sure you're in a quiet environment and have your information ready before starting the call. If the issue persists, you can contact EMUCU during business hours to speak with a representative who can help troubleshoot the issue.
Vic is designed to recognize speech, but background noise, speakerphone use, or unclear phrasing may affect its ability to understand you. For the best experience, we recommend using your phone's handset, speaking clearly and directly, and minimizing background noise. When stating numbers, try listing each number individually i.e: two, zero, two, five instead of grouped "twenty twenty-five".
Alternatively to avoid any potential background disruptions, you can mute your phone and use your phone's keypad during input.
No problem! If you have multiple accounts with EMUCU, you can easily access each one using Vic.
Vic on the phone:
Simply hang up then call back and complete the verification process using the information associated with the specific account you wish to manage.

Absolutely. During business hours, you can say "Representative" or "Live Agent" when speaking with Vic over the phone, and your call will be transferred to a Contact Center Representative.
To chat with a live representative from our website, online banking, or mobile app, type "Live Chat" or "Representative" in the chat window. Click the "Live Chat" button and proceed with chatting from that window or elect to chat over text.
Your base account number for Vic over the phone is derived from your full 10-digit account number and is typically 4 to 6 digits long. To identify it from your checking, remove the first '8' and any zeros that follow, as well as the final digit of the account number. The remaining digits in between represent your base account number.
*The Bold Numbers indicate your base account number to provide to Vic.
See the examples below to determine how to identify your account number from your checking account.
8001234567 -> base account is 123456
8000034567 -> base account is 3456
See the example below to determine how to identify your account number from your savings account.
0000234567 -> base account is 23456
Vic can assist with internal transfers between your own accounts (such as checking and savings) and loan payments. After logging into digital banking, you can use the chat window to access all accounts that aggregate therein.
However, Vic on the phone can only access accounts under the same base account you used to verify at the start of the call. This means Vic on the phone is unable to transfer funds to other EMUCU members, to different base account numbers you may also have, or to make loan payments on loans not tied to the verified base account.
If you need to make transfers outside of your verified base account, such as sending money to another member, please use EMUCU's online or mobile banking platforms, or contact a representative for assistance.
To retrieve information about your Credit Card or Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) through Vic on the phone, use the following verbal commands.

Please refrain from using "Visa" or "Visa card" because all our debit and credit cards are Visas — Vic needs more specific descriptions to be guided to the correct option.
Avoid Background Noise (TVs, Music, etc.)
Use Your Phone's Handset Instead of Speakerphone When Possible
Speak Clearly or Use Your Keypad for Input
