US Patriot Act Disclosure
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal Law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.
What this means for you: When you open an account at City of Boston Credit Union, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We will ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
We will grant conditional membership, prime share only, until inquiries with any Consumer Reporting Agency are completed. If City of Boston Credit Union is unable to satisfactorily resolve any identification discrepancies your account will be closed.
