For international wire transfers, please visit the Convera website to facilitate the transfer to your account. As ValleyStar Credit Union is not part of the SWIFT network, ValleyStar only receives U.S. currency.
ValleyStar partners with our dedicated correspondent bank to provide exchange rates for converting funds. This rate factors the cost of exchanging the funds in addition to the actual exchange rate. Before sending funds to be converted, you’ll be quoted an exchange rate, as well as the total amount to be received, to which you have the option to agree or decline the quoted rate. Once agreed to, the rate is “locked” in and will be sent according to the agreed upon rate.
Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT) and Bank Identifier Codes (BIC) are used to locate and identify financial institutions primarily overseas.
An International Bank Account Number (IBAN) is a series of alphanumeric characters that uniquely identifies an account held predominantly by banks in eurozone countries. Clave Bancaria Esandarizada (CLABE) is a standard 18-digit number for bank accounts in Mexico.
You can obtain any of these numbers by asking the intended payee for their wiring instructions.
Contact us at 800.475.6328 to cancel your transaction. If the wire transaction is still at ValleyStar, we can cancel it with no fees assessed.
If your wire has already been processed, we can submit a reversal request to the payee’s financial institution and attempt to retrieve the funds.
Wire transfers are immediate, final and irrevocable. Reversal attempts may go unanswered.
Fees may be assessed by other financial institutions if the reversal request is successful.
There is no set time frame for receiving a response from the payee’s financial institution. Contact ValleyStar Credit Union five business days after the initial cancellation to request an update of your inquiry.
If you need assistance during the wire transfer process, please contact us at 800.475.6328. We are happy to help!
Subject to applicable law, you can cancel for a full refund within 30 minutes of payment, unless the funds have been deposited into the Recipient's bank account.
