DCCU was founded in 1959 with a mission to help improve the financial health of our members. That mission is best realized when we have the opportunity to develop relationships with our members and fully understand their needs as well as their goals. After all, the essence of relationship banking is rooted in personalized service that develops from consistent, engaging interactions with those who have entrusted their banking needs to us. While our credit union embraces the digital advances that help facilitate transactions and enhance efficiencies, we recognize the importance of building relationships with our members. By combining personal service with digital tools, we can offer a seamless banking experience that reinforces our commitment to each member’s financial wellbeing.
Providing consultative service is a hallmark of DCCU and one of the most important ways we support our members. When you interact with us, you can have peace of mind knowing that we are advocating on your behalf, making sure you have considered all options and arrive at a solution that makes the most sense for your unique situation. We have a genuine desire to help you not only meet current needs but also achieve future financial goals. Just because we are embracing digital advancements doesn’t mean we are moving away from our focus on personal service. We see technology as a complement to our business model. As our cooperative grows and our members’ needs evolve, we must remain relevant and provide the options and convenience that appeal to our intergenerational membership base.
Our feature story takes a more in-depth look at how DCCU has embraced innovation to support the evolving banking needs of our members while never losing sight of our mission. DCCU’s complementary service model allows us to provide a quality service experience on both ends of the digital spectrum. At the end of the day, it’s about meeting you at your point of need and providing the products, services, and tools that support your financial wellness and help make your life easier. Whether you engage with us in person or through our digital channels, we have highly trained employees with a solid knowledge base who are ready to serve you. We know it’s not always easy to learn something new, but we’re here to help walk you through anything that may be a little unfamiliar. Remember, we are simply a branch visit, phone call, or online message away. I encourage you to reach out with any questions you may have.
As we reflect on 65 years of service, our objective is the same today as it was in the beginning. We remain committed to building the personal relationships that define our credit union while being proactive with digital advancements that enhance the member experience. We look forward to engaging with you in the near future and, as always, I appreciate your continued support of our cooperative.
Innovation is simply defined as something new or different. The evolution of banking technology involves a series of transformative advances that have shaped how financial services are delivered and experienced. DCCU provides comprehensive banking options that fit your life. We have embraced innovation that supports the banking needs of our members while keeping our mission of financial wellness at the forefront.
The consultative service we provide from our branches and Call Center is the foundation of how we support our members. At the same time, we offer banking tools that provide time-saving conveniences. “As technology continues to evolve, we must stay relevant to meet the needs of our members. I have worked here for 37 years, and our proactive, member-first approach is what makes us unique,” said Cindy Nuckoles, DCCU’s Information Technology Senior Vice President. “Behind our efforts in innovation are talented employees who believe in our mission and have a genuine desire to enhance our members’ banking experience.”
The mainstay of digital banking at DCCU is our Mobile App and Online Banking platform. Designed to provide 24/7 access to your account information, these tools allow you to complete a wide range of transactions from home or while on the go. Transferring funds between accounts, viewing transactions and account balances, paying bills, depositing checks, and applying for loans are some of the ways you can manage your finances from your computer or mobile device. “We all lead busy lives and coming into a physical branch location may not always be an available option,” said Cindy. “So, it’s important that we offer innovative tools that help you save time and streamline many aspects of your financial management.”
Our ATMs offer another convenient way to manage your finances. While withdrawing cash likely comes to mind first when you think about an ATM, you can also make deposits, check account balances, transfer funds, and more. DCCU recently introduced a new feature that blends standard ATM functionality with personal service – video banking. “We are really excited about the opportunities that video banking offers our members,” said Cindy. “From the convenience of your vehicle, video banking allows you to touch the ATM screen and have a DCCU Member Representative help you with your transactions in the same way they would at a drive thru.” We currently have five locations with ATM video banking technology – Grottoes, West Staunton, Windward Pointe in Fishersville, West Main in Waynesboro, and South High in Harrisonburg. “I encourage you to give video banking a try to see how it can help you save time while enjoying the personal service you expect from DCCU,” Cindy added.
As technology evolves, so do the needs and expectations of our members. While automation and self-service options help to streamline routine tasks, our employees are always available to address more complex needs. “Our goal is to leverage innovation that supports the member experience,” said Cindy. “We are committed to staying ahead of trends and continuously enhancing our digital offerings while honoring our mission and commitment to member value.”
In addition to the traditional ATM functions you’re used to, now you can speak with a DCCU representative by video to ask questions or request assistance – all from the convenience of your vehicle. Simply drive up and touch the ATM screen to speak with a DCCU representative.
