For example, say you traveling in Florida or California and need to make a loan payment and deposit a check into your CES Credit Union account. Simply go into a "Shared Branch" featuring the swirl logo and state you are a member of CES Credit Union (for clarification, our name is in the computer as "C E S Credit Union" with spaces). You will need your account number and positive identification. The shared branch will process the transaction for you, all at no cost.
All CES Credit Union locations can also service accounts from other Shared Branching partner credit unions. (effective January 2009, we welcome Consumers Professional Credit Union as shared branching partners, formerly K&E Credit Union).
Over 4000 Credit Unions have joined together and created shared Service Center locations around the country. Shared Service Centers allow a participating credit union member to conduct most of their business as if it were their own credit union branch. By sharing facilities, credit unions can offer greater convenience for members to access their accounts in many more locations. The following services may be available to you, at locations throughout the United States:
- Cash checks and make deposits
- Cash and Check Withdrawals (Some cash limits may apply)
- Make loan payments
- Make transfers from and to any account
- Purchase Money Orders, Travelers Checks, and Official Checks
- Obtain cash advances and balance inquiries
The rules and regulations of the shared branch credit union apply and may limit the amount of cash back for certain transactions.
This service is great for college students, travellers and "snowbirds" wintering in the South. For the location nearest you, click on the shared branching swirl above.
Have the city name, and a street/road name handy as well.
