Switching financial institutions doesn’t have to be difficult. We’ve helped a lot of members make the switch and we can help you too.

Stop by or give us a call. Our friendly Member Services Representatives will open your new account and help walk you through the three easy steps of switching to our service.

Step 1: Get Started
• Open your account at any of our branches.
• Write down your account number and the credit union routing number.
• You're ready to go! Start making deposits to your new account.
Step 2: Move transactions to your new account
• Destroy checks, ATM/debit cards and deposit slips from your old bank.
• Let outstanding checks or automatic withdrawals clear; leave enough money in your old account to cover them. This process might take a few weeks or more.
• Tell your employer to change your direct deposit to OMNI Community Credit Union.
• Contact anyone other than your employer who makes deposits into your account to find out how to request the change.
• Inform anyone that makes automatic withdrawals from your account that you have switched; they will need one of your new deposit slips or a voided check. These transactions go through a banking system called the Automated Clearing House, or ACH.
• Cancel automated payment services, such as bill-paying by phone, PC or by contacting your old financial institution. We can help you get set up on our automated plan.
• Switch charges automatically billed to your old debit card to your new account, by contacting the company that receives the payment.
Step 3: Close your old account
• Ask your old financial institution to close your account and send you a check for the balance; make sure all outstanding transactions on your previous account have cleared.
