Presidents Message

Here it is October already and we are headed into the Fall season. Students are returning to school and fall sporting events have begun. Social distancing restrictions and masks have returned as well as new cases of COVID-19.

Although the economy has improved, the effects of COVID-19 continue to present several challenges. There are some supply shortages due to lower production or because of distribution challenges in getting those goods to market. An example of this affecting the credit union industry is a shortage of new car inventory throughout the U.S. New car production is lower due to a shortage of microchips which are used in the cars.

The lower inventory in turn affects loan volume in the credit union industry. Less cars available means less loans for credit unions. Here at USX FCU, our loan demand is much improved from 2020 levels. Our various promotions throughout the year continue to be very successful. If you’re in the market for a new car or are looking to take on some projects around the house, please reach out to one of our team members to take advantage of our current loan promotions.

In the June Newsletter, we announced that we would be making an investment in our various computer systems. These projects continue to move forward with an anticipated completion date of October 1, 2022. At that time, in addition to a change in the computer systems in our offices, our members will be able to take advantage of a new on-line banking solution and a new mobile banking solution. These new products will make banking at USX FCU easier, faster, and more efficient.

As a member, you can expect quicker branch transactions, expanded products and services, stronger security and fraud prevention, and the continued first-class experience you’ve come to know at USX FCU.

We will provide periodic information updates on our progress via our newsletter. This information will also be provided by email (if we have your email address on file), in-branch materials, and account statements.

Contactless transactions in our economy continue to grow and we are proud to offer that service to our members. You can now use your USX FCU debit card or credit card with Google Pay and Apple Pay. If you already use these services, simply add your USX FCU cards to your account. If you are new to Google Pay and Apple Pay, simply download the app onto your mobile device and follow the setup instructions.

Should you have questions, please call our Member Contact Center at 888-219-3159 or visit your local branch.

Thank you for being a member at USX Federal Credit Union. We appreciate the opportunity to continue to serve you.

Mark A. Volponi President/CEO

Notice of Election

An election to fill three vacancies on the U$X FCU® Board of Directors will be held at the Annual Meeting. The location of the meeting will be announced in the very near future. No nominations will be accepted from the floor.

A Nominating Committee appointed by the Chairman will
nominate candidates for election to the Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee will select one nominee for each vacant seat on the Board.

Interested members can become a candidate for Board Membership by requesting a “Petition Packet” from the Nominating Committee. The “Petition Packet” will require the member to obtain the name, address, account number and signature from 1% of the membership as of the previous year-end. The petitioner must submit the complete packet to the Nominating Committee by December 3, 2021. The Nominating Committee will then validate the candidate and verify the information submitted in the “Petition Packet”.

Once the Nominating Committee has approved the candidates, the names of all qualified candidates running for election to the Board will appear on the ballot at the Annual Meeting. A short biography of each candidate will appear in the next quarter’s newsletter. The members present at the Annual Meeting will vote to determine who will serve on the Board of Directors.

Any member of the credit union at least 18 years of age may qualify to serve on the Board of Directors. If you have an interest in serving, you may request a “Petition Packet” by writing to:

Chairperson, Nominating Committee, U$X Federal Credit Union, PO Box 1728, Cranberry Twp., PA 16066
Request for “Petition Packet” must be received no later than November 10, 2021.
