The credit union's website says membership is limited to people who have a connection to certain areas of Maryland, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia; alternately, someone "can join our nonprofit partner association (Planting Roots Foundation) and immediately qualify!" Unfortunately, the website fails to mention that joining the credit union requires an in-person visit to a branch within that small tri-state area.
I spoke on the phone with two customer service representatives. Neither was familiar with the Planting Roots Foundation alternative, but they both knew that joining the credit union required a branch visit.
