From BC to Newfoundland, credit union members have access to over 1,800 surcharge-free ATMs. Added up, that’s a bigger ATM network than most banks. And it’s all ding free®.
Leave ATM surcharges behind you.
We’ve all been dinged by surcharge fees at an ATM that wasn’t our own. But as a member of Lakeland Credit Union you don’t have to rely on our ATMs to keep from getting dinged ever again. In fact, you’re part of one of the largest surcharge-free ATM networks in the country.
Any credit union ATM is your credit union ATM.
Belonging to a national ATM network means you can bank ding free from sea to sea, with access to a national network of surcharge-free ATMs – a network bigger than most banks. Just look for a ding free sign on your ATM and say goodbye to those pesky surcharge fees.

Available for iPhone, Android, Windows and Blackberry devices, our new ding free® locator app can help you find the nearest surcharge-free ATM – wherever you are. To get yours for free, visit ding-free.ca
Reduce your environmental footprint with online statements. Our internet banking users can now view their statements online, anytime.
Other benefits include:
- You will receive your statements faster than if they were mailed to you.
- Improved record keeping. Members will have the option to file their statements electronically on their own back-up system rather than only having a paper file.
- Security– there is virtually no opportunity for misdirected, lost, stolen or tampered statements like regular mail. Members can simply delete statements instead of having to shred paper copies.
- Environmentally friendly– an average statement with cheque imaging is approximately 4 pages. Lakeland Credit Union has 12,000 members - that's a lot of paper!
There is a $2/month charge to receive a paper statement with most of our accounts. Ask our staff if the charge applies to your account.
Do your part to end paper waste!

Style, Security, and Convenience
Your LCU Member Card® Debit Card has it all.
Convenience
Access your funds instantly while spending only what you can afford. Make withdrawals, deposits, and more after regular banking hours, or when you are out of town. Your account balance is always up-to-date without the delay of cheques having to be processed.
And forget fumbling with change and losing coins in your couch cushions, because Interac Flash† technology means you can quickly and easily pay for small purchases with a tap of your card. There's no need to insert your card or enter your PIN. Simply tap the corner of the card to the merchant's reader, and off you go.
Security
The chip technology used in your card keeps your data secure, so you are protected against skimming, fraud, and electronic pickpocketing. You can only use Flash† for purchases under $250, and once your cumulative purchases exceed $400, you will be prompted to insert your card and reset your Flash† limit. Where the Member Card® Debit PIN Agreement has been adhered to, the Interac Zero Liability policy provides added protection against unauthorized purchases. Learn more about limit increases.
And every time you make a purchase with your LCU Member Card® debit card, you're automatically protected with the following benefits:
- Buyer Protection offers protection on the purchase of most retail items - including gifts! For a full 90 days after purchase, the item is protected if it's stolen, dropped and broken, or even consumed in a fire.
- Extended Warranty doubles the warranty period of a purchased item up to one full year, as long as the manufacturer's warranty is valid in Canada for five years or less. You can feel confident forgoing that expensive extended warranty offered by the retailer.
The Member Card® daily cash withdrawal limit is set at $400, and daily direct payment purchases are limited to $2,500.
Travel Tips
- You can use your Member Card® to withdraw cash at any international ATM displaying symbols corresponding to those on the back of your card. International ATM fees are typically higher than domestic ATM fees.
- Check the month your Member Card® expires. If you plan to be on vacation that month, contact Lakeland Credit Union to get your new card before you leave.
Cardholder Safety Tips
- Never lend your card to anyone, including friends and family.
- Protect your Personal Identification Number (PIN) - Memorize it, never write it down.
- Never disclose your PIN to anyone. When selecting a PIN, avoid obvious combinations such as sequential numbers, birthdate, telephone number, etc.
- Check your statements regularly and notify your credit union immediately if you detect any unusual activity such as purchases you did not make.
You have the option of securely accessing what you need whenever you need it. This removes the hazard of carrying cash around with you and the inconvenience of planning how much cash you'll need each day. With just your debit card and Personal Identification Number (PIN) you can gain confidential access to your account anywhere you see the Interac® Direct Payment symbol.
With your Member Card® Debit Card:
- Purchase protection insurance is included for 90 days from the date of purchase for most items.
- Extended warranty insurance doubles the original manufacturer warranty up to one year on most consumer items purchased.
- There are no incorrect charges because you verify the purchase amount before you enter your PIN.
- You can use your Member Card® debit card surcharge free at any Ding Free® credit union ATM nationwide. To find a Ding Free® ATM near you go to ding-free.ca to download our free app.
- Please note: There is a $3.00 service charge fee for ATM transactions outside of Canada.
To report a lost or stolen Member Card® please call 1-888-277-1043 from anywhere in Canada or the US.
Safety comes first, protect your PIN. Cardholders should not take unnecessary risk.
The LCU MemberCard debit card comes with built in purchase protection insurance and extended warranty insurance.
Imagine the benefit of automatic protection.
Ever get home after a day of shopping for that perfect gift only to discover something is damaged and the retailer won’t offer a return? Ever worry that your new flat screen TV will suddenly decide not to work, the week after the warranty expires?
Don’t worry. You’re covered every time you use your MemberCard debit card to make a purchase. Best of all, there are no forms to fill out, no applications and no extra cost!
How does the program work?
It’s simple. Every time you use the MemberCard debit card for an Interac direct payment purchase, you’re protected with the following benefits:
Buyer Protection
This coverage offers protection on the purchase of most retail items – and that includes gifts! For a full 90 days after the purchase, the item is protected if it’s stolen, dropped and broken or even consumed in a fire.
For example, if you’re wrapping that expensive crystal vase and it suddenly crashes to the floor, you’re protected.
Valid claims will be satisfied either by replacing the lost or damaged item, or by a cash payment in an amount not to exceed the purchase price.
Extended Warranty
The program doubles the warranty period of a purchased item up to one entire year, as long as the manufacturer’s warranty is valid in Canada for five years or less. For example, when you purchase a TV, the manufacturer would typically offer a one year warranty. But if you use your Member Card debit card for the purchase, the TV would be protected for an additional one year period.
Chequing Accounts too!
Shopping at a merchant who doesn’t offer Interac Direct Payment? No problem! You can make a purchase using a cheque drawn on your insured account and receive the same protection for you purchase.
What is not covered?
Items not covered include: cash, travelers cheques, motorized vehicles, animals and living plants.
Making a claim?
Just be sure to keep a copy of your transaction record, the merchant bill, and (for warranty claims) the manufacturer’s warranty. Simply call 1 877 564 2847, ext. 6895 (open 24/7) and a Claims Representative will assist you. You will need to fax or email in copies of your documentation. An adjuster will contact you to advise how your claim will be processed.
