| How has Digital's downsizing and closing of plants
affected DEFCU in terms of numbers of members, number
of branches, and deposits? What is the expectation of
how these downsizings and plant closing will affect
DEFCU down the line?
I'd expect that many TFSO'd or SERP'd folks will initially put
their "packages" in the DEFCU, so we might see some
initial increase in deposits. But as members draw this
money down, or shift it into better long term investments,
I'd expect both deposits and membership to go down.
Having moved to a location without a branch, I already find
it harder to do business with DEFCU, if I was TFSO'd or SERP'd
I'd likely have even less reason to do business with DEFCU,
especially if my new employer also had a convenient credit
union...
What's the Board's take on this?

| Answering off the top of my head, yes, the board discusses plant closings
and reductions. If a plant containing a DCU branch closes, typically we
close the branch because we can't afford to fund our own building. If a
plant downsizes, things are a bit hazier because we probably could still
have space in the DEC building. However, if the downsizing is significant,
perhaps the remaining members at the site can't support the branch staying
open. Perhaps they can support an ATM, perhaps not. In other words, without
going into specifics, there are a lot of things to consider when a plant
is downsized.
And to answer .-1's question about deposits increasing due to TFSO/SERP
and then decreasing, yes, that did happen. The statement of condition
I believe shows that.

| The part that really bugs me is the attitude the DCU management has
taken about all this, from what I hear in SPO the DCU is closing
because the plant will not PAY the DCU to do business here.What's the
matter someone at the top need a bigger kitty for their real estate
investments again.. I don't know of many here who plan on keeping
their accounts, nowhere to cash checks unless you use ANOTHER banks
machine at a cost of $1.00. The DCU should change there name because
they certainly DO NOT represent DIGITAL employees in my mind unless
you live in EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS, with the branch closings the message
I'm getting is they'll be glad to take my money for their investments
but are no longer willing to offer any services to me..not even a free
ATM machine to use, unless I want to drive 60 miles or so...
|
613.4 | But if there was an ATM? | RGB::SEILER | Larry Seiler | Fri Oct 09 1992 12:10 | 7 |
| Do you feel that most people would keep their DCU accounts if the branch
were replaced with a DCU ATM? That would presumably be a much lower cost
alternative for the DCU than keeping a branch open -- but only if there
would still be a fair number of active DCU members at the site.
Thanks,

| This is an official DCU response to the question about the SPO branch
closing.
Author: DCU
Date: 09-Oct-1992
Posted-date: 09-Oct-1992
Subject: spo vax notes response
DCU's decisions to close the Springfield (SPO) branch and
replace the Westfield (WFO) branch with a DCU Easy Cash24
machine were based on a number of operational and
profitability factors.
It's never an easy decision to close or reposition a service
center; however, product usage, total savings and loan
balances and transaction activity at both Springfield and
Westfield locations are not sufficient to support a branch.
The decision to install an Easy Cash24 ATM in the Westfield
facility was made based on the following:
1. Westfield's total savings balances and
total loan balances are twice as large
as the Springfield branch.
2. Average monthly transactions at the
Westfield facility are significantly
higher and support the cost and
maintenance of an ATM.
It is important that every service industry continually
evaluate the cost effectiveness of their delivery systems -
especially in today's economy. To maintain a branch or ATM
where usage and profitability is very low would, in affect,
force all members to subsidize those locations.
Finally, and most importantly, DCU's products and services
are still very much available to members in these locations.
Over 45% of our membership have no direct access to a
physical branch or Easy Cash24 ATM, yet, take advantage of
our variety of financial services. The attached letter sent
to Springfield and Westfield members contains a detailed
description of ways to access the credit union including our
toll-free Information Center, Easy Touch audio response,
Direct Deposit and network ATMs. The text of the letter is
attached to this response.
(Chuck Cockburn, DCU president and CEO, will be at the SPO
facility this Tuesday, October 13th, at 1:00 pm, Conference
Room #5 to answer questions and concerns.)
Dear DCU Member,
Effective November 24 and 25, 1992, DCU will close its
branches in Springfield, MA( SPO) and Westfield, MA (WFO),
respectively. Significant decreases in branch usage, savings
balances and loan balances have made it impossible to
maintain profitable service centers in these locations.
DCU will install an Easy Cash24 ATM machine at the Westfield
(WFO) facility. The expected installment date is November,
1992. Due to greater network ATM access in the metropolitan
Springfield area and lower credit union activity, an Easy
Cash24 ATM machine is not planned for the Springfield (SPO)
facility.
Conducting Business with DCU

Well, here we go again. This argument was used last year about the
"new, improved choices" we were being given. It was made patently
clear to the DCU throughout all of last Fall that regardless of what
they, the DCU management thought was right or made sense, that we
expected them to provide what we, the owners, thought was right or
made sense. Given that the downsizing could or clearly would cause
a problem like this, what has the DCU management done to find out
what the members would like to have happen.
How do they know that a majority of us, wouldn't be willing to
"subsidize these locations." I don't remember being asked.

in Springfield and Westfield, why don't you and other concerned
shareholders gather signatures or at least ask for a meeting

is that it will and can respond to member concerns if enough

In otherwords, you don't care whether or not the action is profitable for
DCU and consequently the members, only that it makes SENSE? I most certainly
hope your opinion is in the minority. If it isn't, the losses suffered by
Mangone may be a drop in the bucket.
No business has ever succeeded giving out more than it takes in. What you
are saying is that you and all the members 'deserve' service whether or not
the costs are worth the effort. The DCU Management determines something
makes 'sense' if it results in a BENEFIT (profit) to the DCU and consequently
members.
.6> Given that the downsizing could or clearly would cause

Not all the members have access to all the information that the management
has. Even if they did, some members would ignore crucial information that
would determine whether or not any move would be profitable. If at least
some of the members would make decisions based on 'service' regardless of
the cost, I am GLAD the Management has sole control of this decision.
.6> How do they know that a majority of us, wouldn't be willing to

And I am glad they haven't asked you. I seriously doubt that the majority
of members want to pay a significant amount to support the service of a few.
If people pay for a service, they would like the cost of the service they
purchase to be spread evenly among all the patrons, not be out of balance
as you propose.
It's like Purity Supreme (a food chain in New England) opening a store in
California. They would ship all goods from New England, expecting it to be
profitable when there are local stores there that could do the job without
the costs of shipping.

For the UMPTEENTH time, "good service" does NOT equal "a branch at
every site". Look back over the past year. How many transactions did
you do with DCU that REQUIRED a human teller? I have a DCU branch in
my building (LKG), but I rarely use it because BayBank gets the bulk of
my family's business by virtue of its excellent X-Press 24 ATM network.
My DCU transactions fall into three categories:
(1) deposits, of which most are direct-deposited from my paycheck to my
checking (-5) and RSVP (-10) accounts and the rest of which can be
done at any DCU ATM (but NOT at BayBank X-Press 24 ATMs 8^(;
(2) checks drawn upon my DCU account; and
(3) transfers to/from RSVP, which I do by EasyTouch.
Unless Springfield and Westfield are both closing OUTRIGHT, I'd support
replacing BOTH sites with ATMs and a METpay-like "circuit rider" to
deal with loan applications and the like.

These people are being told they have to subsidize services for you and
get nothing in return for it or take their business elsewhere. I've been
lucky so far the three plants I've worked in have had a DCU branch and
one has an ATM also. I certainly wouldn't mind kicking in something
so that these folks could get some semblance of service. The way I see
it the credit union doesn't have to make money all it has to do is brake
even. Of course this is just my opinion but if it came to a vote I'd
have to vote to give everybody some kind of service.

On the other side of the coin, why is having a local branch
so important?
When the banking situation in N.H. got shaky, I switched all
my money (Both dollars! :^) to a credit union based out of
virginia.
Banking by mail/touch_tone took a bit of getting used to, but
it really hasn't been any problem. Getting cash is a bit of a
pain, but there are plenty of places around (such as grocery
stores) where you can cash a check, and avoid ATM fees.
To be honest, dealing with NFCU remotely has been a lot more
pleasurable than dealing with many of the local institutions which
have branch service...

Did you feel this way when checking account fees were proposed? They
would have (at least in part) subsidized those who carry small
balances.
Also, those folks certainly get more than "some semblance of service".
What they don't get is a teller and a free ATM. What they do get is

| Hmmmm sounds to me all the talk about making profitable decisions
means you want more of a bank then a credit union. If profit motive
is what should govern all DCU decisions, then close all the branches
and make everyone bank by phone. The DCU is no longer acting like a
credit union, more like a bank. Frankly I think all these branch
closing are caused more by bad investments and plain old corruption
in the past and the new management is NOT representing me nor any other
employee here in Springfield or in Westfield. Mr Cockburn showed up
here and knows that most employees he talked to did not buy the
reasoning around the closing decisions, he also was dead in the water
about the DCU rate being so much better then anywhere else, not an hour
went by before local loan rates and credit card rates were being
circulated that were much better than DCU's.Those that keep their
account with DCU here will use services like free checking but will not
keep my savings with them.

You're putting YOUR words in my mouth. I didn't advocate anything
other than the DCU not forgetting that the existence of the DCU is
for the benefit of the members and that maximum profit may NOT be
the wish of the majority of the membership. It just might be that
we put service ahead of profit, but we'll never know if they don't
take the trouble to find out. They got into trouble with us in the
past by making assumptions and this decision to close the offices in
western Mass might be evidence that the lesson isn't fully learned yet.

Two strikes, wrong again. I am saying that it is up to the members to
decide if the "cost is worth the effort" and not the management. For
ME, a "BENEFIT" can take more forms than just profit. For ME, a
benefit is also service and frankly considering what DCU pays in
dividends, they BETTER get service right.

So what YOU are saying is that profit is most important to you, and
you want it YOUR way no matter what.
> And I am glad they haven't asked you.
You weren't a member of the previous board were you?
> I seriously doubt that the majority of members want to pay a

Tell you what. How about if we ask the DCU management to check
instead of speculate. Then we'll see for sure whether you're
right or not.
> If people pay for a service, they would like the cost of the service they
> purchase to be spread evenly among all the patrons, not be out of balance

So YOU say. As for me, if it costs me a bit in dividends for the
DCU to keep those offices open until they can work out a suitable
agreement for those members, then I'm willing to pay that cost.
This is NOT your personal credit union. And it does NOT belong to the
DCU management. We made that point loud and clear last fall.

Indeed, the first item on the special meeting agenda was recision of
changes that had been announced (and then postponed -- but NOT
rescinded -- once it became clear that members were starting to
organize) in the infamous "choices" flier.
The REAL issue wasn't checking fees. The REAL issue was the lack of
open, honest communications between the former BoD and DCU's members.
The new BoD does a MUCH better job at that, but nobody's perfect.
In the current discussion, the BoD has the responsibility to chart a
course that meets the needs of its members (both individually and
collectively) without "giving away the store". At the same time, the
MEMBERS have the responsibility (especially during these difficult
times) to remember that a credit union is an institutional way for
people with a common bond to HELP EACH OTHER. If each of us thinks
only about how DCU serves ME rather than on how WE (DCU's membership)
serve EACH OTHER, then we have repeated the mistake of treating DCU
like a commercial bank.

I couldn't agree more. The checking fees were one of the specific
items which were complained about, but, as you point out, in the
context of it all, more of a symptom than a problem.

Again, agreed 100%. The DCU exists for the MEMBERS. Because of the
responsibility to meet the broad needs of the membership, we will not
as individuals get everything precisely the way we want it. If the
DCU always ensures, however, that it knows the desires of the MEMBERS
and manages accordingly, then we are ALL well and better served.

RE: .0
Getting back to the original topic...
There is NO WAY closing a branch at a location where DEC employees
still work will be welcomed. But layoffs at some locations has brought
site populations far below what is necessary to support a branch.
Before DCU puts a branch somewhere, it evaluates whether there are
enough people on site to support it. In the current climate, that same
evaluation needs to be repeated IMO. Also, building consolidations may
warrant the expansion of some branches. The bottom line is that DCU
needs to monitor the changing demographics and try to do what is best
for everybody. Unfortunately, there will be some people who lose
something they have gotten used to. I think DCU offers a wide variety
of ways to access services other than tellers (in most cases). Before
leaving DCU, I think you might want to at least *try* and use the other
services to see just how much you can't do.

I just spoke with the BTO DCU branch manager. She said that yes, they
will be closing. They will not be relocating to any other building in
the area. As of now, she doesn't know the closing date.
