New Account Features at UTFCU

We try to make banking easy at UTFCU.  You may already know that as a member of UT Federal Credit Union you have access to over 25,000 surcharge-free ATMs across the country along with the ability to make transactions at over 3,300 shared branch locations. That means that you never have to look too far for a way to get to your money. In addition, we’ve recently added two new features that make banking with UTFCU even easier than before.

Online Account Opening

The first is online account opening and funding, which means that you can save time and gas money by opening your Power U checking account from your home computer. While we would still love to see you at any of our branches, we realize that you’ve got a lot on your plate – especially at the beginning of the semester! If you’re interested in opening an additional account (like a savings account for Spring Break) or if you’re new to the area and haven’t opened an account yet, visit this link to get started. If your parents are helping pay the bills, they can even fund the account with their credit card so you don’t have to carry cash around with you.

Account to Account Transfers

Another useful tool that we’ve recently added is the ability to make transfers between your UTFCU accounts and those at another financial institution. Once you’ve setup and verified your external account(s), you can easily transfer money to and from your UTFCU account with a few mouse clicks. This is a great convenience if you want to maintain an account at another bank or credit union but plan on switching a majority of your banking to UTFCU.

AT UTFCU, we’re always thinking of new ways to make banking easier for U. Feel free to leave a comment below if you have an idea for a service or product that you would like to see at UTFCU.
