Have you always wanted a Co-op card lock, but the fact that you had to drive into Dawson to pay in person held you back?
Well, starting April 15, Co-op Petroleum members will be able to pay their invoice at the local Lake View Branch.
Lori Archibald is the CEO of Lake View Credit Union. She says as the only financial institution in Tumbler Ridge, Lake View wants to make sure they are “actively engaged in helping to grow the community and the services available to the residents,” Archibald says. “In addition to benefitting our existing members, our hope in providing this service, free of charge to Co-op members, is that those who aren’t yet Lake View members will appreciate our efforts and consider becoming members of our organization.”
Lake View started accepting Cardlock payments in Chetwynd Last year.
“Any time we can provide a better, more convenient service to our members, it’s a win,” says Rod Hillary, General Manager of Dawson Co-op. “We’ve been delighted with how the relationship with Lake View Credit Union has developed in Chetwynd, so it was only natural to make sure our members in Tumbler Ridge enjoyed the same convenience.”
To kick off the new service, staff and management from Lake View Credit Union and Dawson Co-op will be on hand at the Tumbler Ridge branch Monday, April 15 from 12-2. You don’t have to be a cardlock member, or even a Lake View member, as the event is open to the public.
