Oxnard branch temporary closure
Our Oxnard Branch will be closed for renovation beginning April 8, with a projected grand reopening by the end of this summer. We’ve planned to ensure seamless service during this period, including fee-free ATMs (the Oxnard Branch ATM remains available during renovation), online and mobile banking, Night Drop Box and more. Please read more about this transformation and thank you for your patience as we bring you a better branch experience.
Drive-thru Shred Day for VCCU members
While a lot of focus on account security is focused online, many criminals still dumpster dive into trash that’s left in cans on curbs or in apartment complexes, or personal papers that may blow out of trash trucks. Proper disposal of medical, financial, insurance, utility and other paper documents is critical to protect your identity. Collect your documents and bring them to our first Free Shred Day of 2024.
Saturday, April 27 from 9 am to noon
VCCU Headquarters parking lot at 2575 Vista Del Mar Drive, Ventura
Two box limit. Please prepare for Shred Day by reading these Frequently Asked Questions.
