United Credit Union’s Branch in Hyde Park will remain open after the Treasure Island Store Closure

Dear Valued Member,

To our many, many loyal and faithful members that visit our Hyde Park branch; it is paramount that you receive accurate information about the closure of the Treasure Island grocery store chain, and its effect on your credit union.

On Saturday, September 29 th , 2018, Treasure Island Foods announced the permanent closing of all of their stores. They closed their Hyde Park location on October 8th , 2018. It is important to note, however, that the United Credit Union branch located in the lower level will remain open.

The grocery store closure will have no effect on our credit union’s operations or your account with us.

Rest assured that you will continue to have full access to your accounts at all times, and there will be no interruption in service. United Credit Union’s intent is to continue to operate at the same location for as long as we can while we evaluate various other local-area branch options. Our existing branch in the lower-level of the shopping center will remain open and fully accessible during our regularly scheduled business hours. To ensure everyone’s safety and security, in addition to the security that will be provided by the shopping center, we will be contracting a separate security service to supervise our branch office.

United Credit Union has maintained a presence in that same shopping center for over 30 years, and we intend to continue to serve the community with the help of the University of Chicago (who are the owners of the Hyde Park Shopping center). We have been working closely with their representatives to ensure that we keep the facility open and operational to our members while they look for another anchor tenant.

Our Main Office location at 4444 S. Pulaski Road, Chicago, IL is also available to serve you as well as our 5901 North Cicero Avenue, Chicago, IL branch. The management team and staff are dedicated to making this transition seamless for all of our members that will be impacted by this change. We value and appreciate your business and remain committed to meeting your financial needs. If you have any questions, please call 1 (800) 848-3444.

Sincerely,

Mario Aguirre
President/CEO
