Frequently Asked Questions

How do I dispute or report a fraudulent transaction?

Your first step is to contact the merchant directly; they can often resolve issues more quickly by reversing incorrect charges. If the problem persists, you can contact JHCU, and we'll assist you in filing a claim through VISA®. Keep in mind, this process may take up to 120 days.

If you discover fraudulent or suspicious transactions on your credit card, please contact us at 410-534-4500 or 1-800-543-2870 as soon as possible to prevent further damage. For lost, stolen, or otherwise damaged cards, please contact us.

How do I make payments?

You can pay for your credit card in the following ways:

  • Account Transfers: Transfer money online or in-branch from another account to your credit card. Your payment will be credited immediately, and your balance and available credit will be updated. 
  • Online Bill Pay: It takes two business days to credit your account and update the balance. For convenience in paying and tracking all your bills, you can set up JHCU as a Payee, using:
    • Your 9-digit JHCU account number (not the 16-digit card number)
    • JHCU's main address:
      • 2027 E Monument St, Baltimore, MD 21205
  • Telebranch 24: You can use our 24/7 automated phone system to transfer money from a JHCU account to your credit card balance.

Check: You may use a check to pay your credit balance, sent through the mail or brought in person to a branch.

Can I have an authorized user on my credit card, or add one in the future?

Yes, you can add authorized users to your credit card account, provided they are 18 or older. To add an Authorized User, a form needs to be completed and signed by the cardholder and the authorized user.

Can I have a co-applicant on my credit card?

Yes, you can add a co-applicant to the application. A co-applicant has co-ownership of the card and can use it just as the Primary Owner would. The co-applicant is equally responsible for paying off the card's balance.
