Facts You Should Know About Credit Unions What is the difference between the “bank” and what your credit union can offer? 1. NCUA versus FDIC: The vast majority of credit unions are federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), which provides essentially the same insurance coverage on deposits as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which insures bank deposits. 2. Deposit Insurance: Not all credit unions are federally insured by the NCUA. A few states allow credit unions to only have private insurance. All federal credit unions (those with federal in the name) are federally insured by the NCUA. Your funds are insured in each account up to $250,000.00 3. Eligibility: Membership is limited, but joining a credit union is probably easier than you think. All credit unions have a field of membership (FOM) in their charters that defines who is eligible to join. Our FOM is dues paying members, their family members and retirees of Local 20. 4. Member for Life: Once you are a member of a credit union, you can remain a member regardless of what happens to your original qualifications. If you move to a new city or if you change employers, you can remain a member of that same credit union. 5. Share Account: All credit unions require you to maintain a share account with a minimum balance even if you just want a loan. This is typically a savings account, and the minimums range from $1 to $50. Our credit union’s requirement is $5.00 for the minimum balance. 6. ATM Access: Free ATM access can be as widespread as a big bank. Many credit unions belong to nationwide ATM networks. This gives you surcharge-free access to thousands of ATMs around the country. Toledo Teamsters Federal Credit Union belongs to Alliance One. This allows our members to withdrawal funds at no charge. A credit union may not always be a better choice than a bank. Fees may not always be less, and a credit union may not always have the banking product that you're looking for. Nevertheless, credit unions give consumers more choices, and many times you will find better rates and fewer fees at credit unions. In addition, you might be surprised by the accessibility and convenience of the credit unions. ART and HOME BANKING - Using ART and / or Home Banking helps our members balance their accounts faster!
