Maine Savings FCU offers 20 accounts, each with its own rules for what happens when a member dies. As a membership-based credit union, Maine Savings FCU eligibility is based on where you work, where you live, or your relationship to another member. Serves communities throughout Maine with multiple branch locations. Members can also access services through Co-op Shared Branches and surcharge-free ATM networks nationwide. Some transfer automatically to a named beneficiary, others can be held in a trust, and a few may require probate if no plan is in place.
Account holders can update their beneficiary designations at Maine Savings FCU in branch and by phone. Accounts can also be retitled into a trust to keep them out of probate entirely.
Maine Savings FCU provides specific procedures for both proactive estate planning and filing claims after a death.

Frequently asked questions
Neither. Maine Savings offers no online beneficiary management through digital banking, and its Forms & Applications page (https://mainesavings.com/resources/forms-applications/) publishes no beneficiary or estate form at all. The designation is made on a service form completed in a branch, or one the Member Service Center sends you on request at 800-273-6700. Every living owner has to sign. Build the branch visit or phone call into your plan, especially if funding a trust requires revoking an existing POD payee first — that revocation cannot be done from a phone app.
