       I, Donald J. Hommel, Chief Executive Officer of Consumers Financial
       Corporation, certify that:

       1.    I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Consumers
             Financial Corporation;

       2.    Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
             statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
             necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
             circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
             with respect to the period covered by this report;

       3.    Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
             financial information included in this report, fairly present in
             all material respects the financial condition, results of
             operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the
             periods presented in this report;

       4.    The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible
             for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures
             (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
             registrant and have:

             a)   designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused
                  such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under
                  our supervision, to ensure that material information relating
                  to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
                  made known to us by others, particularly during the period in
                  which this report is being prepared;

             b)   evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
                  controls and procedures and presented in this report our
                  conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
                  and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
                  report based on such evaluation; and

             c)   disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's
                  internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
                  the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter that has
                  materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
                  affect, the registrant's internal control over financial
                  reporting.

       5.    The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed,
             based on the most recent evaluation of internal control over
             financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit
             committee of registrant's board of directors (or persons performing
             the equivalent functions):

             a)   all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
                  design or operation of internal controls over financial
                  reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
                  registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report
                  financial information; and

             b)   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
                  or other employees who have a significant role in the
                  registrant's internal controls over financial reporting.
