If you have a current loan, credit card, or HELOC with Westerra, you may qualify to defer up to 3 payments which will be added to the end of your loan. Mortgage loans are not eligible. You’re allowed a maximum of 6 skipped payments over the life of each loan. For revolving credit (like credit cards), you must either pay the interest due, or have it added as a 0% interest advance when the deferral is processed. Interest continues to accrue during the deferral period. To request assistance, contact us at 720‑836‑2258 or WesterraCanHelp@Westerracu.com.
If your account is past due, you may still qualify — if the combination of any payment and the deferral bring your account current. For example, if you’re 60 days behind and request a 3-month deferral, you may be asked to make a payment first. Also, if you’ve previously skipped payments, you’ll only be approved for the remaining allowed skips (up to a total of 6). Deferrals extend your loan term, but don’t raise your monthly payment. Always reach out for personalized help.
Westerra is dedicated to serving you safely.
