What our Members Say

We have over 4,500 members who trust us with their money and come to us for financial advice. Here's what a few of them have said about us:

	“I've always relied on FSCU to give me fast, efficient service. … I can do everything that I can do at a bank, I have the benefit of a smaller facility that knows who you are and I get to speak to a live person on the phone. I can get anything done at a moment's notice.” —Scott Marks, IAFF Assistant to the General President for Canadian Operations, Member since 1981
	“It's like old-time banking, where you know people's names and you build a relationship with staff … The Credit Union really helped me organize my finances. As a Canteen Manager, having the crew set up on automatic transfers means I always have an updated list of everyone who has contributed so I can just shop on behalf of the Platoon!” —Norm Currie, Fire Fighter and Member since 2007
	“After attending an FSCU annual meeting, I realized that there was a dedicated group of individuals that share a uniqueness with Fire Services employees. I wondered why it had taken me so long to discover that! … I find their online banking easy to navigate and use. Saving money is simple and seamless with payroll deduction and direct deposit.” —John MacLachlan, Fire Fighter, Local 3888 West Command Executive Officer, Member since 2009
	“I have had nothing but positive experiences. Each staff member recognizes me when I come in and addresses me by my name. They are very personable, efficient, and highly skilled. They always display a high level of professionalism and courtesy … the staff always go out of their way to ensure that my needs are met. I'd like to thank each and every one of them for all their help and support.” —Meaghen Garrett, Fire Fighter and Member since 2009
