Embracing Growth and Enhancing Your Banking Experience
Dear Members,
I am thrilled to share the remarkable progress we have achieved during the third quarter of this year. Our unwavering dedication to providing you with the best services and security has led us to several notable successes that have significantly elevated your banking experience.
We successfully completed a major system upgrade including mobile banking that showcases our commitment to continuously improving and modernizing our services for your convenience. This upgrade ensures a more secure and more efficient banking experience, reflecting our dedication to providing you with top-tier financial solutions. Along with our system upgrade we have also upgraded our look. You will see a sleeker design with a new and improved logo. This new logo signifies our commitment to better banking and innovation.
As a result of our system upgrade, I am excited to introduce our new Mobile and Online Banking platform, designed to make your banking experience extremely secure, more accessible, and user-friendly. These platforms have been crafted with your needs in mind, allowing you to take control and manage your finances with greater ease and flexibility.
Despite our achievements, we remain steadfast in our commitment to further growth and expansion. Our dedication to delivering innovative solutions and exceptional banking experience remains unwavering; this is just the beginning of better banking with ValleyStar. For more information on the system upgrade, please visit valleystar.org/system-upgrade.
Speaking of growth and expansion, I am pleased to announce the addition of two (2) new executive members to our team. Mr. Woody Windley, CFO (Chief Financial Officer and Ms. Susan Chapman CMO (Chief Marketing Officer). Their diverse expertise and fresh perspectives will contribute to our continued commitment to being the best in service and convenience. Our employees are our greatest assets, and their hard work and dedication drive our success as a credit union.
Looking ahead to the year’s final quarter, we are filled with enthusiasm and excitement for our members to enroll or re-enroll in our new Mobile and Online Banking platform, and to finally experience the better banking experience that our team worked tirelessly to improve for them. As we move into the last months of 2023, we remain dedicated to providing you with unparalleled banking services and an experience that exceeds your expectations.
Thank you for your unwavering support and trust in us.
Sincerely,
Mike Warrell
