All comments are reviewed and monitored by Citizens Federal Credit Union before posting to our social media site.

Citizens Federal Credit Union does not endorse any comments made by its employees, unless they are an authorized representative of the credit union. CFCU does not validate assertions or forward-looking statements in the comments. All statements and viewpoints expressed in the comments are strictly those of the commenter alone, and do not constitute an official position of CFCU unless they are posted by the original author (who is an authorized representative of CFCU) or by a subject matter expert responding on behalf of that authorized representative.
Citizens Federal Credit Union Employees – If you are a CFCU employee, you MUST disclose your employment status when you submit a comment or question. When participating in online communities, do not misrepresent yourself. Whether you are at home or in the office, working for CFCU is a material fact that may influence content, and community members have a right to know you work for CFCU. When commenting on the credit union, unless you are authorized to speak on behalf of CFCU, you must state that the views expressed are your own. If we feel the nature of your comment is confidential, shares information not generally available, or recommends an action which could adversely affect our members, we reserve the right not to post your comment to a blog or social media site. Thank you for helping maintain the integrity of our community by disclosing your employment relationship.
