A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to the Austin Telco Federal Credit Union with an unusual package. Over the intercom, a voice announced: ‘Attention everyone—we’ve received a deposit so large, it’s bigger than Texas!’ Everyone rushed over to see the massive deposit slip—they thought it was printed on a billboard! Turns out, it was just a regular deposit for a local business. The delivery driver grinned and said, ‘Next time I’ll bring a check smaller than Texas!’
2. One morning, a regular walked into the Austin Telco Federal Credit Union and asked the teller, ‘Do you guys really close early on Wednesdays?’ The teller smiled and replied, ‘Yes, we do.’ But something strange happened that week… That Wednesday afternoon, as everyone was leaving early, a delivery driver arrived with packages for the credit union. Seeing no one around, he decided to drop them off himself. When he left, he accidentally locked himself out. And so, our friendly neighborhood regular found him there, waiting patiently, and offered to help until someone could unlock the door.
3. One afternoon, a curious neighbor stopped by the Austin Telco Federal Credit Union and asked the guard: ‘Do you guys really keep all our money in those big safes?’ The guard smiled and replied, 'Of course not, sir. We keep it all in a secret underground vault.' The neighbor nodded thoughtfully before asking, 'And who guards that?' To which the guard answered, 'Well, that's just between us, pal!'
4. One foggy dawn, a delivery driver approached the Austin Telco Federal Credit Union with a box of donuts under his arm. As he unlocked the door, he noticed something peculiar: every single light inside was on full blast. Curious, he entered and found no one around—just rows upon rows of blinking lights and whirring machines. Then, from behind him, came a soft voice: 'Morning, sir! Donuts for everyone!' Turning, he saw an elderly gentleman in a suit, holding another box of freshly baked treats. ‘We’ve been having some technical issues,’ chuckled the man, ‘but don’t worry, it happens to us once or twice a month.’
