January 2023 Newsletter

New Controlled Entry at Ferris Lane Branch

We are increasing security measures. The Branch remains open for Member walk in and in-person business, however the doors will be secured and Members will be buzzed in to access the branch. Your patience as we adapt to the new process is appreciated.

Regulator Requirement - Action Item

The Regulator requires us to contact Members to ensure contact information is accurate and updated. Please log into your online banking on the full site (cannot be done on the App), Select "Profile & Preferences" from the left side menu, select "Change Contact Information", tick the "Address" & "Phone Number / Email" boxes to display all the fields, review the information and add any missing information.

Thank you, we appreciate your attention and assistance.

START SURVEY

Happy New Year to all our Members and I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued patronage.  As a small credit union in a highly regulated industry, we must compete directly with very large banks, other credit unions, new FinTech’s, and it is only through the continued support of our Members that we can be successful.

 

We provide a very personal approach for our Members, from answering the phones in the branch, to providing tailored solutions for your financial objectives. We pride ourselves in

finding innovative ways to help our Members when they need it most. 

 

Our annual survey provides you the opportunity to highlight to management and board what you value about the Credit Union and what else we can do to meet your ongoing financial needs. Please take a few moments and let us know what you are thinking, as it is truly appreciated.

 

Again, thank you for being a Member and thank you for participating in our survey. - Bill Whyte CEO
