Amanda Urias has been very professional in helping me to establish a new certificate. She kept in-touch by phone and set up our appointment for this morning. She enabled me to earn the best rate possible, and also updated my other accounts to reflect my designated beneficiaries (POD). I appreciate her friendly and patient manner, as well as her willingness to answer any questions I may have in the future. Thank you, Amanda.

Exceptional customer service
Mayra went out of her way to keep me as a First Tech customer. One of my CDs reached it's maturity date. I was contemplating moving the funds to another credit union. Mayra offered to try and gain approval for a higher rate to keep my funds at First Tech. I'm pleased to say she was successful!
