SDCCU Responds to the Coronavirus Pandemic

SDCCU is committed to improving the financial well-being of our members, which means navigating the COVID-19 landscape through the lens of our founding principle of putting people first and profits second.
 
Since the start of the pandemic, SDCCU deferred thousands of loans for members facing hardship totaling more than $1 billion dollars in balances. This financial relief from your credit union is part of what sets SDCCU apart from traditional banks. As a not-for-profit cooperative, our interests do not serve an elite group of outside shareholders; instead, we give back to our members by way of low loan rates, ongoing support for the communities we serve, and the ability to help our members during challenging economic times.
 
A special thanks goes out to those members who have supported, encouraged, and thanked management and staff for our proactive health and safety efforts. As an essential service provider, management continues to monitor official guidelines to ensure continual education is delivered and health protocols are followed at all of our locations. From the very beginning of this pandemic, our priority has always been to maintain uninterrupted services for members and to ensure your health and safety, and that of our team members, while in our facilities. 
 
COVID-19 cases are dropping from the heights we saw over the holidays and vaccines are now being made available. We do anticipate greater consumer confidence in returning to some pre-pandemic activities. The credit union continues to urge members to use our secure Internet Branch online and mobile banking for all your daily transactions. You can view account history, transfer money, pay bills and deposit checks from the comfort and safety of your home. Additionally, on March 1, our Yorba Linda Branch will re-open and hours across all open branch locations will be adjusted to 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday. Please continue to check this page for the most up-to-date information on branch hours and open locations.
 
Finally and most importantly, I hope that each of you are staying safe and healthy. Thank you for your business; SDCCU looks forward to being your financial partner for many more years to come.

President and CEO

Safety

The safety of our staff and members is one of our highest priorities. We have enhanced sanitizing practices in all SDCCU locations, new safety shields have been installed at employee stations, and proper markers are designated to observe the required six feet of social distancing. In addition, as of April 9, 2020, all employees who interact with the public are required to wear a facial covering per the County of San Diego, Department of Health Order.

The credit union prohibits anyone from entering a SDCCU branch location if they within the last two weeks: have been diagnosed with COVID-19, are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, have been in direct contact with someone confirmed as COVID-19 positive, are a person under investigation (PUI) for suspicion of COVID-19 or are awaiting COVID-19 test results.

We will take any violation of this very seriously, including denying banking transactions, and report any such reckless behavior to the appropriate authorities.
