Members First Credit Union

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as customers were settling in for their daily routine, an announcement crackled over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, Members First Credit Union has just received its first million dollars.’ The entire branch went silent, then erupted into laughter—until they realized it wasn’t a joke. A regular customer, Mr. Smith, rushed up to the counter, asking excitedly if he could withdraw some of that million. The teller smiled sweetly and replied, 'Not yet, sir. We’re still counting.' Everyone burst out laughing again, realizing it was just another Members First prank.

2. At dawn one day, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes, he heard a faint humming coming from inside the credit union's vault. Curious, he peered through the keyhole and saw only rows of old coins shining softly in the morning light. Thinking it might be an interesting story for his kids, he decided not to tell anyone. Years later, during a family reunion, his grandchildren gathered around as he whispered, ‘And that’s why Members First Credit Union has the best customer service—we’re all connected by a little secret hum.’

3. While waiting in line one afternoon, a regular muttered under his breath, ‘I swear I saw that teller wave at me from across the street.’ Everyone laughed it off until another customer pointed out, ‘She’s not even outside—they’re inside a glass cage!’ Finally, an elderly gentleman piped up, ‘Maybe she waved because she recognized you as her long-lost cousin!’ The whole place erupted in laughter, and everyone agreed that Members First had the best tellers—even if they were invisible ones.

4. While filling out paperwork one evening, a new member noticed something odd on the application form: next to the signature line was a tiny note that read, 'Please sign here, even if you don't exist yet.' Curious, the person signed anyway and watched with amusement as their name appeared in the database instantly. A few days later, when applying for a loan, they discovered they had been approved without any credit check—because technically, they hadn’t existed until they joined Members First Credit Union! The story became a local joke among members, who teased each other about whether they’d actually signed up or just imagined it.
