IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FYI!
It seems that the Chicago Patrolmen's Federal Credit Union is unable to get their night depository box open. So if you've made a deposit at the main branch within the last week or so and it hasn't shown up in your account, that may be why.
Does the Credit Union cover bounced checks?

I accidentally dropped my Al's beef sandwich in the night deposit box when I placed my deposit envelope in it. Hope that didn't cause the problem!
What happened? Did someone break the lock? Call a locksmith!
Lately, I do not trust the credit union at all. It used to be a good place that tried to help, but now they act like a bank. No thanks.
Uggggggggggggghh . . .
. . . I just lost my house !
(Actually my grass-roof hut that I paid $375,000 for on the North West side
I know a good safe cracker.
Anyone out there with a "Slim-Jim"?
Any body seen Pops Pansko lately?
Where's Jimmy Valentine when you need him?
Thank goodness it isn't a sperm bank. The deposits would be null and void by now!
Mayor Daley's right hand man got a litle confused. He was ordered to stuff the BALLOT BOX with Obama votes and accidentally overstuffed the deposit box by mistake. So much for carrying the cash envelopes with the phoney ballots.
Attn P.O.'s: Before choosing the credit union for ANYTHING, shop around. The rates that they are giving us are ridiculous. Also, the credit union likes to promise you one rate, then turn around and give you a worse rate, blaming credit issues.
They are just as bad as these fly by night mortgage brokers.
Officers beware: When securing a loan for housing, the credit union uses an independant mortgage broker named John Aretos. HE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED.
He is a close personal friend of the CEO Scott Arentz. Another scumbag banker. He makes it look like we should be lucky to get a loan through his bank. This is not LaSalle Bank, this is our credit union, to serve the members of this credit union.
Make sure you put everything in writing. Read the contract before signing it. They verbally tell you one thing, and hand you a contract saying another.
If there is a small bank around you, shop there. These small banks are few and far between, but they do like your business. Check out their rates. Finally, if you have a summer home in a small town, get financing through one of these small town banks, they're dying for a steady income customer like a P.O. Don't limit banking to Chicago Banks!
I usually just get a loan from Vinney in Bridgeport. The 20% a week juice ain't bad. And if you pay the vig on time, you kep your health too!
SEISER NOW SAY: SEN. JOHN MCCAIN FOR PRESIDENT. BEFORE VOTING CONCURE WITH SEISER FIRST.
Take your money out of the Credit Union!!! Use ING Direct. www.ingdirect.com They have a an interest rate over 4 percent. No minimum balance, No fees and No hassles. It's easy to transfer money to and from your existing checking account online.
It's worth a look.
Great for savings.
What ever happened to that 005th or 006th district officer that tried cashing the phony 1 million dollar check at the credit union anyway?
Take your money out of the Credit Union!!! Use ING Direct. www.ingdirect.com They have a an interest rate over 4 percent. No minimum balance..................................yep ive saved thousands but HSBC.com little better rate
I just use a bank. I never joined. When I looked at some rates for shits and giggles, they RAPE us.
i agree with 3:25 pm. Use ING direct instead of the credit union. 4% interest rate with ing as opposed to the measley 1% (if you're lucky) that you get from the credit union. just like the ing account with a checking account you already have. then you just transfer money between the two. its that simple.
too bad JF & crew arent available! they could get in that safe!!!
much love!!!! viva $153!

Good arrest in 004 by the 004, 006 tact teams and TRU
Thanks SCC always informative!
Cpfcu sucks big time. I applied for a home equity loan recently. They sent some 19 year old, bmw driving punk for the appraisal.. Needless to say they only wanted to give me half of what I requested. I called my mortgage company and got what I asked for without an appraisal. I have since taken my $$$ out of the credit union and won't do business with them again. SHOP AROUND FOR A BETTER RATE
I TRIED TO CASH MY MILLION DOLLAR CHECK AND THEY CALLED THE POLICE ON ME.
I HATE BEING AT 311 CAN I FILE A GRIEVANCE.
Could not agree with you more about how the credit union operates. It is OUR credit union, but they act like they are doing you a favor by giving out loans. It was totally different when it was run by policemen, but ever since this new CEO has been there it has been straight downhill. Too many former FOP bigwigs sit on the Board. Even Nolan's old secretary landed over there. Look for a good, local, small bank. Much better service and rates.
FOP Update
LOG numbers VS CR NUMBERS 01/08/08
On January 2nd, the Department sent out a fax message, #3080033, which directed Watch Commanders to obtain a “log number” for incidents of weapons discharge, taser incidents, suicides and attempted suicides for persons in custody. In this directive, a reference was made to Department Notice 06-37 which addresses the Automated Complaint System, causing great concern and confusion throughout the Lodge and the Department.
On January 3rd, our concerns were presented to the Department who admitted errors in this new directive but who failed to take action to rectify or rescind the directive. On January 4th the Lodge sent a letter to the Department informing them that based upon their new directive, the Lodge would not permit an officer involved in a shooting to participate in the “round table” process. Within 3 hours after sending this notice to the Department, we received a call from them expressing a desire to discuss a means of resolution to this problem. At that time we were able to work out language that would be temporarily acceptable for the “round table” process. Further discussion resulted in the scheduling of a meeting with the Department on January 7th at which all of the concerns of the Lodge were addressed.
Later that day, the Department sent out a fax message #80109 which rescinded the January 2nd fax, and fax #80110 which contained the language that was acceptable to the Lodge. We would like to stress that the issuance of a log number alone does not initiate a CR# nor is it an allegation of any misconduct. It is merely a tracking system for investigations that the City had initiated, without informing the Lodge.
We hope this incident further emphasizes the position we have taken forever and that is that the Department needs to get this Lodge involved in the implementation of their policies and procedures prior to rolling them out to their Department Members.
The credit union's other rates suck but you can not beat their one year CD rate. On line Corus Bank and ing Bank are better. Right now there is a CD rate war starting and you are the winner if you can follow it close and have enough money to tie up for a year.
Daley's son and nephew got a hold of the money for an "investment" Oooooops, it was a lapse of judgment. No further questions 'cause I just don't know the answers, and it's all just silly, silly, silly.
Did they do background checks on all their employees? Hmmmm, sounds fishy to me......
Another enormous ID theft in the making.....

should have invested in a nice double wide in Bridgeport/Beverly/Mt Greenwood area! Just imagine, land value drops, you just put her in drive and wheel on out!
VIG? This ain't New York boy! Its JUICE !!
my sister axed me to drop off her million dollar lottery check , but luckily I stopped at the jewels for some grocery and didn't drop it in that box.
Have to agree.They are not what they use to be.They use to like us.
One might suppose if they didn't open up a new branch and didn't pass out millions of pens, shoe shine kits, air fresheners and key rings, they might be able to give you a better rate. But remember, always money for advertising.....
CROWN POINT, Ind. -- A judge has dropped charges against a Gary man who sparked a police chase in which an officer died in a crash between two patrol cars.
Twenty-seven-year-old Bernard Watkins was released from the Lake County Jail yesterday. He faced a number of charges, including carjacking, in the August 12th crash that killed Patrolman Benjamin Wilcher.
Prosecutors said they were unable to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt.
------------------------------
wow, hating the police crosses state lines. Look at the wall. The public, judges, and ASA hate the police, and want us to be killed. Its gotten that bad.
This is the worst job in the world. If you get killed by a shithead, they walk. (a police man would be serving 10 years min) People can now accuse you of wrongdoing, and fired. The public doesn't care if you save thier life, and the judges don't care if you risk your life to keep em a job on the bench.
No contract. And a new sup ready to fire everyone with this zero tolerence attitude.
Where is the FOP? Where is are exempt command staff (throwing us under a bus and silent to the press and public)
Question for old timers. How low is moral compared to when you got on?
However, I'd love for a white shirt to be honest and post an answer to this. Why, a blue shirt should be happy and work in this daily atmosphere?
I hope my deposit of ONE MILLION dollars from my 'Six Flags' settlement done gets entered. I have to UPS some weight to my play cousin who works for the Cook County public defender.
Phil and Fr. Tom were short of cash. Memorial and chaplain duties are not producing the cash flow they wanted.
WE ALL RUN INTO MORONS EVERYDAY!
But this cop actually locked up a real Moron!!!!
Bryan Scott Moron, 20, of Burleson, Texas, was arrested Friday after he lost control of his truck and struck a mailbox, then a house, MyFOXDFW.com reports.
Living up to his surname, Moron failed sobriety tests, the station said. The arrest report showed his blood alcohol level to be more than twice the legal limit.
Hey SCC on Monday the 14th the Lt's are getting their assignments how about a post over the weekend trying to guess where people are going and how hard they are going to cry when they dont get their desired location.
Re: Take your money out of the Chicago Patrolmens Federal Credit Union.

I took my money out just when Seiser started S.C.C.
I invested heavily into S.C.C.
Not sure if you guys have peek at the New York Stock Exchange lately but S.C.C. was a $1.28 when I bought my shares from Seiser that he sold out of the trunk of his car.
Now the stock is over $200.00 a share and thats after it has split twice already!
My original investment of $647.56 is now worth $1,323,438.04
So don't wait, get a hold of Seiser and buy buy buy SCC Stock!

Maybe try to snag this benefit in our next contract:
MADISON, Conn. — Madison's police commission has heard allegations that several town officers have had encounters with prostitutes while working the overnight shift.
The allegations came up Monday during a Police Commission disciplinary hearing for the midnight shift supervisor, Sgt. Timothy Heiden.
No criminal charges have been filed in the case involving prostitutes. However, officials say arrests are expected in the coming weeks. Heiden is not expected to face criminal charges.
There are administrative charges that Heiden did not properly supervise subordinate officers.
The officers allegedly met with the prostitutes at several locations including the commuter parking lot off of Interstate 95 as well as behind a school and a shopping center.
Despite it's official sounding name, the Chicago Patrolman's Federal Credit Union is a privately owned business.
HILLARY WINS!!!!
All you male, white, right wing Republicans watch out! She is YOUR next president.
Careful- I saw Mailbox Mary crawling around in there last night.
Hey SCC,
Is there any way we can blame FOP for this one? Their office is nearby. Just checking.
By the way, you do know the union caused the freak January tornadoes the other day, don't you? For real.
Have a great day.
Sincerely,
Mr. Giant Loser
NEWS FLASH !!!!!!!!PROBLEM SOLVED::R.Vanecko, Boss Daley's nephew, was extracted from the night deposit shute by the Fire Dept. late this afternoon.
Vanecko stated that since the night deposit contained police officer's monies he felt entitled to help himself, as he did from their pension funds.
When he attempted to exit the shute with a bag of cash in each hand, he became stuck. Although he realized that the only way out was to drop one of the sacks of money, he couldnt bring himself to let the money get out of his grasp. He was still clutching the two bags of cash when pulled from the shute.
Although a clear case of burglary, Felony Refuse declined to approve charges and ordered the officers to give the two bags of money to Vanecko.
Gov. Blago issued a full pardon for this and all future thefts by Vanecko.
The credit union is shit! I have a fixed interest home equity loan, but as the pricipal goes down the interest gets higher! I talked to the girl in charge she told me i do not understand simple interest, she does not understand how much they are stealing from me! Time to go to a regular bank i can trust! The credit union pays so low the employees anr anything but experienced high turnover rate!
Trivia Question:
Who can guess the name of the exempt member of the department that lead the Marine's only bayonet charge of the Vietnam War in the Battle of Khe Sanh?

Really scary!!!! Interesting that this is the church that Obama attends...
Subject: Obama's church
Obama mentioned his church during his appearance with Oprah. It's the Trinity Church of Christ. I found this interesting.
Obama's church:
Please read and go to this church's web site and read what is written there. It is very alarming. Barack Obama is a member of this church and is running for President of the U.S. If you look at the first page of their web site, you will learn that this congregation has a non-negotiable commitment to Africa.
No where is AMERICA even mentioned. Notice too, what color you will need to be if you should want to join Obama's church... B-L-A-C-K!!!
Doesn't look like his choice of religion has improved much over his (former?) Muslim upbringing.
Are you aware that Obama's middle name is Hussein? Strip away his nice looks, the big smile and smooth talk and what
do you get? Certainly a racist, as plainly defined by the stated position of his church! And possibly a covert worshiper of
the Muslim faith, even today.
This guy desires to rule over America while his loyalty is totally vested in a Black Africa!
I cannot believe this has not been all over the TV and newspapers.
This is why it is so important to pass this message along to all of our family & friends.
To think that Obama has even the slightest chance in the run for the presidency, is concerning.
I don't think the Credit union is 100% legit, just like the rest of Chicago.
we need the loan-a-ranger for our loans, he's on our side. And he has a politically correct indian fried to keep the politicians satisfied.
99 bottles o beer on da wall, ahhhh, wats dat next line again???

Our credit unions rates are terrible. Shopping around for better rates would be prudient.
Anybody can walk of the street and open account. They should be made to change their name.
I am so glad I quit that place years ago. It's not a real a bank (cannot issue or cash out bonds), is inconveniently located, and other than giving out free pens, really doesn't do much for me.... I still swing by for the pens though! hahahaha
Credit unions were formed to give the members more interest on savings and less interest on loans because they were presumably not trying to make a profit
Ive never belonged to any other credit union, so I have nothing to compare them to
But for my money our credit union stinks.
I dont use them anymore
when I cclosed my account at the credit union, I was asked why
I told the lady that the credit union gives ice in the winter time
It went over her head and I explained it to her
I dont use em
What ever happened to that 005th or 006th district officer that tried cashing the phony 1 million dollar check at the credit union anyway?

SPEAKING OF RIP-OFFS!!!
Just got my semi-annual non-metered water and sewer bill from the city.
It jumped from $289 to $320 for 6 months.
Thank-you Richard F###ing Daley!!!
I suppose you need the extra money to water the flowers in your Olympic Garden.
If anyone thinks that your water bills will go down when you get a water meter, made by a campaign contributor to the Democratic Party, delivered by a hired truck and put in by a prevailing contract union plumber well get a bucket and start empting Lake Michigan.
Keep voting for democrats.
Go with
http://home.ingdirect.com/
they got really good rates on your savings accounts.
I've never been a member of the Credit Union and I would recommend that all CPD officers go out and shop around.
It's easy to find a decent financial institution who has competitive rates and better programs than the CPD credit union.
They have a few programs that may fit your lifestyle but most are overly costly and don't do much for your longterm financial interests.
Just my 2 cents on it.

Barack Hussein Obama, the guy running for president will not wear the U.S flag pin that all politicians wear. McCain for pres.
IF YOU HAVE MONEY IN THE CREDIT UNION TAKE IT OUT NOW, DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THEM. ALSO IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO INVEST MONEY CALL SEISER, SEISER HAS FREINDS FROM NEW YORK CITY THAT ARE NOW INMVESTING IN A GAMBLING CASINO LOCATED ON AN INDIAN RESERVATION LOCATED IN UPPER NEW YORK, FREE FROM FEDERAL TAXES. A TWO MILLION DOLLARS INVESTMENT WILL NET YOU 20 MILLION IN A COUPLE OF YEARS. NO CHECKS CASH ONLY ALL TRANSACTIONS MUST TAKE PLACE FROM AN OFF SHORE ACCOUNT VIA THE CAMEN ISLANDS.
However, I'd love for a white shirt to be honest and post an answer to this. Why, a blue shirt should be happy and work in this daily atmosphere
Here's your answer: because you get paid damn well for what you actually do on a daily basis, you get way more time off than anyone in the private sector, you have an obligation to the people of this city that you serve. Would you want someone with the "I aint doing shit ," attitude responding to you or your parents house? have some pride, do your job and hope for the best.

What's all the bitching?
The cu cashed my million dollar
check, no questions asked.
My thanks to all account holders.

Airborne!!!
Funny, I called the CU today asking why they took the ATM out of 016. They told me nobody was using it and they are opening the new branch at the end of the month. I asked where I could deposit a check I was told on washington st office or I could use a ATM from another bank and I will be charged to deposit a check. You would think they could wait another month before removing the ATM but that would be common sence.
How are those financial advisers that are part of the creditunion and work out of an office next door. They are allways at the retirement seminars.
Did you ever notice that there is a sign in the Financial Advisor's office next to the credit union that says that no weapons are allowed inside.
They can't be that bad!!!
Careful- I saw Mailbox Mary crawling around in there last night.

Is she still alive?
Teachers Credit Unions (anywhere) usually have really good rates, but like someone said before all banks and savings and loans are heavily competing for business now and offering FANTASTIC deals.

Mail Box Mary would have to be in her late 60's. I know, arrested her may years ago in 11.
Maybe she has a daughter now working the streets. Later on,she got a regular post office box.
Smart gal, no pimp was going to get her money nor the gang bangers.
It's a good thing the credit union employes ebonic speaking gang bangers. I am sure they had a crobar in their hoodie to pry that SOB open.
