Dear Landmark Members and Debit Card Users
We are thrilled to inform you that Landmark Credit Union will not be included in the vast number of financial institutions that will be imposing fees for debit card usage. Landmark has always had a onetime issue fee for new cards which is and remains $20.00 and a replacement card fee of $15.00. We have not and will not be charging a per time fee for debit card usage.
Please understand that some merchants will impose a minimum purchase amount in order for you to use your debit card, but that change is completely up to the merchant and Landmark Credit Union has no input or control over those fees.
In order to be prepared for those situations, have some cash on hand for smaller purchases. ATM withdrawals also remain fee free for Landmark Debit Card holders. Landmark does not charge a fee for using another financial institutions ATM. However, the ATM owner more than likely WILL charge you a fee for using their ATM's. That charge may range from $1.50 upwards. Again, Landmark Credit Union has no control over fees that are imposed by other ATM owners or merchants.
We appreciate our members and their loyalty to Landmark Credit Union. We remain committed to helping you build your financial future by achieving our goal of keeping our fees and charges as low as possible.
Thank you for your support and continued commitment to Landmark Credit Union.

- No credit union member has ever lost money in any ASI-insured credit union.
- ASI is owned by credit unions and only insures credit unions. Currently, over 1.5 million individual consumers belong to credit unions insured by ASI.
- Like the credit unions it insures, ASI is safe and sound. The company's equity ratio of 1.49% is greater than that reported by federal deposit insurance funds.
- ASI does not hold any collatarized mortgage obligations (CMOs) or any of the types of exotic investments that created the need for the $700 billion bailout of AIG, Goldman Sachs and other investment firms currently under consideration by the US Congress, nor does it insure or guarantee the performance of such securities to any parties.
- ASI's balance sheet exhibits solid characteristics with 25% invested in cash and cash equivalents, 70% in U.S. government-guaranteed agency bonds and US Treasuries, and 5% in other assets (certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, building and other fixed assets).
- ASI's insured credit unions generally have little or no investments in CMOs, nor do credit unions buy the types of exotic investments associated with the recent and well-publicized failures of some of the nation's largest investment firms, banks and thrifts.
- ASI's insured credit unions hold little or no sub-prime mortgages, as confirmed by our numerous on-site field examinations.
- ASI is not assigned a traditional insurance industry rating by companies like A.M. Best or Standard and Poor's due to the limited number of companies in our industry. Financial data and other information are supplied to the key rating services annually for their review and analysis.
- ASI is selective as to who it insures. Not all credit unions that apply for coverage are accepted due to ASI's strict underwriting standards.
- The ASI insurance fund provides your credit union with a strong, high-quality program that can sustain regardless of changes in economic conditions - a program that members can trust and rely upon!

Landmark Credit Primary & Excess Deposit Insurance ASI & ESI
Landmark Credit Union is pleased to provide each of your depository accounts with $250,000 of protection through American Share Insurance (ASI), the nation's largest private insurer of credit union savings.
Also the Board of Director's of Landmark has chosen to acquire additional coverage from Excess Share Insurance Corporation (ESI) for account balances exceeding $250,000. This extended level of protection provides an additional $250,000, meaning that each reported account in this credit union is protected up to $500,000 the highest limit of savings protection available to credit union members.
$250,000 Additional Coverage
There is no limit to the number of accounts you may have with Landmark and still maintain this extra measure of protection. Excess coverage is specifically designed to free you from concern about the nature and extent of insurance on your savings account balances.
About ASI-ESI
ASI is a credit union-owned, mutual share guaranty corporation and has insured savings of credit union members since 1974. ASI is the largest non-federal insurer of deposits.
ASI operates as a business partner with your credit union to assure that member needs are met in a safe and sound manner. It routinely monitors and examines your credit union and, as a licensed share guaranty corporation, is subject to an annual statutory examination by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions.
ASI's primary share insurance program is available only to state-chartered credit unions, whereas both federally and state-chartered credit unions may apply for excess share insurance.
Excess Share Insurance Corporation is a property and casualty insurance company solely owned by American Share Insurance, licensed by the Ohio Department of Insurance, and is approved to operate in Alabama by the department of insurance.
Excess coverage is particularly unique to the credit union industry. Only credit unions meeting the highest standards are eligible for this extended protection. This insurance can be terminated by either the credit union or by ESI; however, you must be notified in writing of any change in the insured status of your accounts.
