What Members Can Do to Help
TeleCommunity Credit Union is committed
to protecting the privacy of its members.
Members can help by following these simple
guidelines:
-
Protect
your account numbers, plastic card
numbers, PINs (personal identification
numbers) or passwords. Never keep you
PIN with your card, which can provide
free access to your accounts if your
card is lost or stolen.

caution when disclosing your account

to other persons. If someone calls you
explaining the call is on behalf of the
credit union and asks for your account
number, you should beware. Official
credit union staff will have access to
your information and will not need to
ask for it.

let us know. It is important that we
have current information on how to reach

or unauthorized activity or use of an
account, we will attempt to contact you
