Lakeland Credit Union Complaint Procedure

Our vision is to be the financial provider of choice with the mission of enhancing lives by providing superior service and quality financial products. We are member owned and governed by a board of directors elected by you, the member. Our board of directors’ responsibility is to provide governance and oversight to the professional management of the credit union on behalf of its members.

If you are a member and have come across a situation or problem with our staff, products, or services, and it has not been properly handled by your first point of contact, we have procedures set in place for you to file your complaint formally with Lakeland Credit Union.

These steps have been designed to assist you with a simple and direct means to resolve your problem or complaint. Please follow these steps in order to ensure a quick resolution:

Step One

If the incident occurs in our Bonnyville or Cold Lake branch, please ask to speak to a senior manager or branch manager. Any one of our senior staff are happy to assist you at the time of incident so that we can resolve your matter quickly and effectively. If you have a particular staff member that you feel comfortable with in either branch, you can also request to speak to him or her about your complaint. Other helpful information you can provide includes:

  • All documents, amounts, or supporting information pieces with special attention to the dates involved.
  • Names of any employees that were involved. If names are not know, positions will often suffice to identify the employees.
  • Clarification of the circumstances and an established timeline in point form.
