Credit Union ONE “Thanks” Military Veterans

Ferndale, Michigan – In an effort to thank our Military Veterans, Credit Union ONE has launched a new program to honor their service to our country.

Until the end of 2013, U.S. Military Veterans with an active, retired, honorably discharged or reserve status are eligible to receive a $100 Gas Card when they close on a new or used auto loan through Credit Union ONE.

“Our military men and women put their lives on the line for us every day of the year, and this is just one small way that we can give back to them,” said Terry Jagielski, Senior Vice President and Chief Lending Officer of Credit Union ONE.

Those interested in receiving this benefit are urged to visit a branch or their local dealership and mentioning that they want to purchase through Credit Union ONE.

Pass along this great information to those that may benefit from it, and don’t forget to thank our Veterans for their service!

"The ONE to Ask: Lending" presented by Credit Union ONE

Ferndale, Michigan – When individuals have questions on financial topics they need someone to ask. This is where Credit Union ONE comes in.

In response to what their members were asking for, last year Credit Union ONE launched The ONE to Ask, a Facebook online chat for members to post questions and get them answered by subject experts during a one-hour live session. As the series has continued to grow and Credit Union ONE is seeing a larger fan base, they have expanded their “live sessions” to two hours in order to accommodate the number of questions received.

In 2012, they are continuing with this program, as indicators are showing the event to be gaining popularity with the next session tentatively planned for sometime in the spring.

Just this week, the third event of The ONE to Ask was hosted by Darlene Stuart, Vice President of Lending Operations for Credit Union ONE, and Laura Hoag, Director of Real Estate Lending for Credit Union ONE. Stuart and Hoag shared notes on a variety of lending and mortgage topics with fans of the page, from how to improve your credit score, to some of the best options for debt consolidation and mortgage refinancing.

According to Stuart and Hoag, both appreciated the opportunity to speak with the members online and to give them assistance with some of the things they might be experiencing. Whether members have a situation that they need help with, or are just looking for general information Credit Union ONE is happy to share some tips and direction for their particular need.

Credit Union ONE, headquartered in Ferndale Michigan for over seventy years, offers a wide array of financial services and access to over 28,000 ATM’s nationwide, serving 106,000 members, with eighteen offices in three major metropolitan areas, including Metro Detroit, Grand Rapids and Traverse City.
