ATM Locations through the CO-OP Network of ATMs – Dow Credit Union members have free access to more than 28,000 CO-OP Network ATMs across the U.S. and Canada. These are located at 5,500 7-Eleven stores and at participating credit unions. As a member, you have free access to these ATMs marked with the CO-OP logo. This means there will be no fee from us and no fee from the ATM owner! This network is larger than what the largest banks provide. Many locations allow deposits as well as withdrawals. So, wherever you may move to or travel to, your credit union accounts are close by. To locate an ATM near you, click the ‘Locator’ tab at http://www.co-opfs.org/b2c-homepage/ .
ATM Locations outside the Network – When you must use an ATM outside the large CO-OP Network, remember that your first three non-CO-OP ATM cash withdrawals are free. After that we will access your account $1 for each subsequent cash withdrawal. Please note: many financial institutions outside the CO-OP Network will assess a separate surcharge for use of their ATMs.
VISA Debit/ATM Card – With your credit union Debit/ATM Card you can make unlimited account inquiries and unlimited transfers between your credit union accounts at any Dow Credit Union ATM or CO-OP Network ATM.
VISA Debit Card – You may also make purchases with your Debit Card anywhere you see the VISA logo, and online. Using your Debit Card is a convenient—and safer—way to shop without carrying a checkbook with you. Your personal identification number (PIN) protects against misuse of your card. Remember to check your statement monthly for any unauthorized use and notify us immediately if you have any concerns. To report a lost or stolen card, call our main number during regular business hours. After hours, call 800-472-3272.
