Welcome North Main Credit Union

With the upcoming retirement of CEO Melany Ward, we want to ensure that we continue to bring the most innovative products and services to our members while continuing to grow our membership base and areas of service. Joining Georgia United will allow us to offer more robust products and services, better loan and savings rates, expanded digital services, more physical locations across the state and increased operating efficiencies. Because we both share very similar cultures and values, this merger will allow us to have a greater impact on the community while ensuring the same level of service to our members.

Yes. Your savings will continue to be federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) up to $250,000 per account holder. The NCUA insures IRAs separately up to $250,000. This coverage is identical to the coverage at North Main Credit Union.

Beginning, Friday September 29 through Sunday, October 1: North Main Credit Union debit cards will have reduced limits. If you have any anticipated large expenditures for these dates, please be prepared to use your North Main credit card or withdraw cash at the Cornelia branch or ATM+, located at 255 N. Main Street, Cornelia, GA 30531. Your North Main debit card will no longer be active after Sunday, October 1.

Monday, October 2: If you are a debit cardholder, you may activate and begin using your new Georgia United Visa® Debit Card. Please discontinue using your North Main debit card on October 2, and securely destroy your card. You may also bring the card to our office for secure destruction. Remember to update your card number with any merchants that have your information on file for automatic payments as your card number will have changed.   

Your new Georgia United Visa Debit Card will be equipped with more options:

• Contactless Payments: Tap your card to pay wherever you see a contactless symbol for a quick, secure, convenient, and touch-free transaction!  
• Digital Wallet Compatibility: Add your card to Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay on your mobile device to protect yourself from data breaches, add an additional layer of authentication prior to use and to allow you to conduct touchless payments. 

We would like you to begin using your new Georgia United checks as soon as you request and receive them. Outstanding North Main checks will clear through your new Georgia United account.   

Your North Main Secure Checking Account will be grandfathered in, however, no more additional Secure Checking Accounts can be opened. Visit gucu.org/checking for a complete list of Georgia United checking account products. To access your Econocheck benefits for your Secure Checking, your existing username/password will continue to work through clubchecking.com.

Georgia United ATM+ machines are completely free when you use your Georgia United Visa Debit Card! We also won’t charge you a fee to use a non-Georgia United ATM, however, the issuing ATM might charge you a fee. To find an ATM in our network that won’t charge you a fee; visit gucu.org/locations and select the extended network link. 

Nothing needs to be done and your direct deposit will continue without interruption. However, we encourage you to check all your deposits and recurring transactions to ensure there are not any payment or transfer interruptions. For any new transactions we recommend that you provide your new routing/transit number and account number. 

In November, we will be converting your current Mastercard to a Georgia United Visa^® Platinum Card. Cardholders will receive a communication with more details. Until then, everything will remain the same with your card, and our team members at the Cornelia branch will be able to assist with your credit card inquiries.
