3 Welcome to Southland Credit Union Iam both excited and honored to welcome you to Southland Credit Union! On August 18, 2014, the Board of Directors of Patriots Federal Credit Union(PFCU) overwhelmingly voted for their Credit Union to merge with Southland Credit Union. This vote joined two Credit Unions with a common goal and purpose to provide you, the Member-owner, with personalized and friendly service and with financially rewarding products. This partnership ensures that you will continue to see these benefits, along with new and enhanced features that could have only been made available by partnering with Southland. Our combined Credit Union now has over a half billion in assets and over 55,000 Members with eight full-service branch locations throughout Los Angeles and Orange counties. These branches are in addition to the more than 5,000 CO-OP Shared Branch locations and nearly 30,000 CO-OP Network ATMs available to Southland Members nationwide with no surcharge fees. Southland also provides convenient access through industry-leading online and mobile banking technologies. The result is a stronger credit union, with the ability for you to access your accounts in more places than ever before. Beginning Friday, October 30, 2015 at 3:00pm, your Credit Union will begin integrating the core systems and processes of PFCU into Southland. During this two-day conversion process, system access, like ATMs and online banking, will be temporarily unavailable. Rest assured, your Credit Union will be working vigilantly over the weekend to ensure all systems are up and operating for business on Monday, November 2, When this process is completed, you will have full access to all of Southland s features and benefits. I encourage you to explore this Welcome Guide, it includes more details on Southland s products and services, and explains what this conversion means for you. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at or through Southland s website at SouthlandCU.org. Again, welcome to Southland Credit Union. I am excited, as I know that you are, for the great possibilities this partnership will bring. Sincerely, Ferris R. Foster President / CEO Southland Credit Union WELCOME GUIDE PFCU 2

10 What You Need to Know about Overdrafts and Overdraft Fees An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough money in your account to cover a transaction, but Southland Credit Union pays it anyway. We can cover your overdrafts in two different ways: 1. Courtesy Pay Program comes with your account and is additional coverage over and above your elected overdraft protection plans. 2. Overdraft Protection Plans transfer from your overdraft line of credit or savings account, which may be less expensive than our Courtesy Pay Program. To learn more, ask us about these plans. What are the Courtesy Pay Program practices that come with my account? We do authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions: Checks and other transactions made using your checking account number Automatic bill payments We do not authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions unless you ask us to: ATM transactions Everyday debit card transactions Online bill payments made with Southland epay We pay overdrafts at our discretion, which means we do not guarantee that we will always authorize and pay ATM/Debit card type of transactions. If we do not authorize and pay an overdraft, your transaction will be declined. What fees will I be charged if Southland Credit Union Courtesy Pays my overdraft? The Credit Union will charge a fee of $32 each time we pay an overdraft. What if I want Southland Credit Union to authorize and pay overdrafts on my ATM and everyday debit card transactions? If you want the Credit Union to authorize and pay overdrafts on ATM and everyday debit card transactions, you must opt-in. To opt-in call, or visit to opt-in online. Please respond by filling out this form: I DO NOT want Southland Credit Union to authorize and pay overdrafts on my ATM and everyday debit card transactions.
