Bonney Lake BECU Upgrades to Larger Location

If you are a member of the Boeing Employees Credit Union, you know how long the line can get at the . Bonney Lake BECU has outgrown its current home. It will move to a larger location at 21182 State Route 410 this month.

The Safeway location will close on Saturday, June 18 at 1 p.m.; the new location will open on Monday, June 20 at 9 a.m., across the street in the same parking lot as , and .

“The new stand-alone location will be approximately 2,400 square feet and allow us to meet the service levels of the community,” explained media contact Todd Pietzsch. The present location has only three desks to service members. The new location will have five.

With 4,200 members in the Bonney Lake area, the increase in size and staff should alleviate some of the pressure that the Safeway Financial Center has felt.

There will also be more services available in the new location.

“In addition to the extra desks to help members, for anyone wishing to review their retirement investments and goals, we will have the ability for members to schedule an appointment with an investment advisor,” said Pietsczh.

No trace of BECU will be left in Safeway. Both ATMs will be moved to the new location. Although this may eliminate the convenience of stopping by the bank while doing the weekly grocery run, they will still be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

There has been no decision as to what will fill the empty space in Safeway yet.

BECU members can look forward to a few perks with the opening of the new Neighborhood Financial Center. An email sent to members in the Bonney Lake area promises a $5 Starbucks gift card to members visiting the new location, with the presentation of the email before July 30. Also, if current savings account holders open member Advantage Checking, Money Market, Line of Credit, Visa or Equity Advantage accounts, $25 will be deposited in their Savings account.
