Skip-A-Pay

Skip your next loan payment with Telhio’s Skip-A-Pay program!

We understand that life happens — unexpected expenses, holidays, or just a tight budget. With Telhio’s Skip-A-Pay program, eligible members can skip one monthly loan payment each year for a small $35 fee, giving you extra flexibility when you need it most.

How It Works

Skipping your payment is simple — we’ll move your skipped payment to the end of your loan term, so you can take a break now without falling behind.

You can request Skip-A-Pay in one of two ways:

  • Online Banking: Log in and select Other Services → Skip-A-Pay, then follow the prompts.
  • In Person: Stop by your local Telhio branch and a team member will help you complete your request.

What Happens Next

Once your Skip-A-Pay request is approved:

  • Your next payment due date will be advanced by one month

  • The skipped payment will be added to the end of your loan term

  • A $35 processing fee will be applied
