We have completed due diligence to make sure this merger provides our members with significant benefits above and beyond what they have today. We will begin integrating the operations of the two credit unions starting Monday November 22nd, while accounts are expected to be opened/funded no later than mid-December, 2021. We will keep you updated on our progress in the coming weeks.
FIAFE members can still access their accounts up until November 30th by contacting Ron Puntanen at 410-281-6231. Ron will only be available on Tuesday and Friday afternoons. As of December 1st, 2021, FIAFE members will no longer have access to their FIAFE accounts.
You will not need to open a new account. As we integrate our systems, all existing FIAFE accounts will automatically be migrated onto Securityplus FCU's systems. We will work hard to make the integration as seamless as possible so that you may continue to conduct business as you always have.
Yes. We will provide you more specific information about your account number when we integrate our credit union systems.
All of the current products that you enjoy at FIAFE are also available at Securityplus. You’ll be provided with more information as we combine the two credit unions.
You will begin to receive information when we get closer to system integration, which is scheduled for mid-December. As we get closer to this date you will receive communications that will have important information regarding your accounts. Account Numbers: You will receive a letter in the mail postmarked no later than Friday, December 10th that will include your new account number(s).
