NOTICE: Service Fee (November 12, 2019)

PSCU regularly reviews its account packages and service fees to ensure we remain competitive and offer value to our members. Our fees for chequing and saving accounts were last changed January 1, 2016, four years ago. We are pleased to announce that we are maintaining the same monthly chequing package fees at this time. However to align our transaction fees on chequing and savings accounts with other financial institutions in the marketplace we are increasing these fees by twenty-five cents ($0.25) for individual transactions. This change assists your credit union with offsetting increasing cost from our providers for new and enhanced services as well as regular services to you. A full summary of our chequing and savings fees, comparing the January 1, 2016 and the fees effective January 1, 2020 is provided below.
