Alexandria, Va. (PRWEB) March 04, 2015 -- Pentagon Federal Credit Union (PenFed) today announced the credit union has joined the Allpoint Network, which means PenFed members now have access to America’s largest surcharge-free ATM network, with some 55,000 surcharge-free ATMs worldwide.
“This is wonderful news for PenFed members. As a best-in-class financial service provider, it is important that our members have convenient and surcharge-free access to their funds,” said Kevyn Myers, executive vice president and chief operating officer with PenFed.
Myers continued, “The Allpoint Network provides enhanced access to funds in more ways than one. With the recent launch of our new Access America checking, a low cost checking account that includes free online bill payment and world-class online and mobile banking, the Allpoint Network partnership allows us to expand our aggregate network of free ATMs for PenFed Access America checking members to more than 56,000 worldwide.”
