NOTICE

To our account holders and potential account holders:

In accordance with Section 326 of the Patriot Act of 2001, which requires the Middletown Area Schools Credit Union to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Middletown Area Schools Credit Union is required to obtain basic identifying information from you and verify that when you open a new account.

This means Middletown Area Schools Credit Union will ask you for some basic information designed to help us identify you.  Middletown Area Schools Credit Union staff will also ask to see documents identifying you such as a social security card, driver's license, passport, and/or some other government issued document.

In some cases, identification will be requested for those individuals conducting business with the Middletown Area Schools Credit Union prior to the effective date of the member identification requirements.  This is because original documentation was not obtained with the opening of the account or Middletown Area Schools Credit Union is unable to form a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of the existing account holder.

In all cases, protecting of our member's identity and confidentially is the credit union's pledge to you.  Middletown Area Schools Credit Union appreciates your patience and understanding as we all do our part in complying with the new account identification procedures required by the federal USA Patriot Act of 2001.

Respectfully,

The Board of Directors
