| On September 11th, 2001 our lives changed forever when
our country was attacked. In an effort to protect you and our country,
President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act into law on October 26, 2001.
One section of the USA Patriot Act says we must:
- Verify the identity of any person seeking to open
an account (which includes Trust, Investments, Safe Deposit, Loans
and Deposit Accounts).
- Maintain records of the information used to
verify the person’s identity including name, address and other
identifying means.
CommStar Credit Union will follow this law by
obtaining picture identification and verifying other information given
by the member. In some cases, identification will be requested for those
banking with CommStar Credit Union prior to October 26, 2002 because
original documentation was not obtained with the opening of the account.
In all cases, protection of our member’s identity and confidentiality is
the Credit Union’s pledge to you.
We proudly support all efforts to protect and maintain
the security of our members and our country. |
