Make the journey from a number to an owner. A credit Union is a financial co-operative that is owned and democratically directed by its members. That is why we don’t have customers; we have member-owners. And, unlike traditional banks, we have no profit mandate. Your Credit Union exists to meet the needs of our member-owners, not to make money from them. This is why Your Credit Union can offer lower fees, better rates of return and unparalleled service. For more information visit www.yourcu.com or call 1-800-379-7757. #yourcu #creditunion #cudifference #somechoicesmatter

From addresses, URLs, and embedded links can masquerade as things they aren’t. Do not take these items at face value (even if a name, logo, or other identifiers seem familiar and safe). On your PC, hover over or mouse over these pieces of content and examine the info that appears (you will often see the true destination of a web address in the bottom left of your browser window). On mobile devices, use a long press or long click and review the information in the pop-up window. If there appears to be a mismatch between what you expected to see and what is actually presented, steer clear. #ncsam

October is Cyber Security Awareness Month and we'll be sharing tips all month to help keep you more secure online. Tip #1 Are you cyber safe? Don’t re-use passwords. Different accounts should have different passwords and you should change them regularly. Make your passwords complex and don't ever write them down. Using a combination of lower-case letters, upper-case letters, numbers and special characters is your best bet. #ncsam

#TipTuesday: Plan How to Avoid Impulse Spending Spending impulsively can rack up credit card debt and lead to a lot of guilt, frustration and buyers remorse. Make a rule for yourself: if something costs $200, wait two hours before buying it; for a $400 purchase, wait at least 24 hours; and for an $800 purchase, wait at least a week. Anything truly worth having is worth waiting for.

A five star review from long time member-owner Karen W. "I joined Your Credit Union over 20 years ago. Previously, I dealt with many of the traditional banks in Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa. In my humble opinion Your Credit Union is by far the best, their customer service is excellent."
