Effective October 1, ATM use at ATB locations will be changed
Changes in Canadian payment networks are creating an incompatibility with the Alberta Regional Network which is resulting in the need to discontue the long-standing arrangement with ATB.
Effective October 1, 2010, withdrawals performed by credit union members using their credit union Member Cards at ATB ATM’s will incur the same service charge as withdrawals performed at any other non-credit union ATM. Bill payments, deposits, balance inquiries and transfer of funds between account will no longer be available at ATB ATM’s.
Credit union members can continue to perform withdrawals, deposits, bill payments, balance inquiries and transfers of funds at any of the 265 ATM locations of Alberta credit unions.

As indicated in the information contained in the August 10, 2010 communication about the MasterCard CHOICE REWARDS e-mail scam:
You can help protect yourself by remembering this important information:
- Unlike these phishing e-mails, CUETS (our MasterCard issuer) will never ask you to verify personal information in response to an e-mail
- Most fake communications convey a sense of urgency by threatening discontinued service
- Many fraudulent e-mails contain misspellings, incorrect grammar, and poor punctuation
- Links within the fake e-mail may appear valid, but deliver you to a fraudulent site
- Phishing e-mails often use generic salutations like “Dear Customer,” or “Dear Account Holder” instead of your name
-
The address from which the e-mail was sent is often not one from the company it claims to be
