Patelco announces “Thank You Certificate”

PLEASANTON, CA (March 31, 2014)— Patelco Credit Union, one of California’s largest credit unions with more than $4 billion in assets, announced today the introduction of a special certificate designed to thank members  for their participation in the credit union.

The “Thank You Certificate” is available for any member who was with Patelco on or before December 31, 2013, and is yet another way the credit union is investing in their member-owners. “Our members are what make us successful,” said Patelco President and CEO Erin Mendez. “Therefore it is our duty to turn around and put that money back in our members and help better their financial lives.”

The Thank You Certificate is yet another way Patelco is rewarding members for their loyalty to the credit union. Last year Patelco ran a program just for 2013, called the Member Giveback. The program was for members who were with the credit union on or before December 31, 2012, and offered discounts on auto loan rates, and waived home loan lender fees and credit card balance transfer fees. The Member Giveback saved members more than $3 million in total throughout the year.
