Decade of membership receiving great service
I’ve been a member for over 35 years, and the financial support I recently received from Hong Vo has truly been exceptional. Hong provided both short‑term and long‑term guidance with clarity, patience, and genuine care. His expertise always makes a meaningful difference, and I feel supported every step of the way. After decades as a member, it’s service like this that continues to reinforce my trust and appreciation.

Rating the First Tech. Fed. C. U.Premier Financial Rep. Program
I was so thankful when Emilee Guitierrez texted us and offered her professional assistance with our banking and financial needs. It has/is a pleasure working with Emilee G., she is professional and keeps us up to date with our financial needs. If it had not been for Emilee Guitierrez and your Premier Financial Rep. position, we would not have investments with First Federal Tech. Thank you.

Premier rewards Banking - Amber Fish
Amber very quickly understood our needs and upgraded our accounts exactly as promised and all behind the scenes so the process was smooth and transparent.
Amber also clearly explained to us the process in advance and answered questions after completion.
I have banked with First Tech for 36 years now and still feels like the smaller "HP Federal Credit Union" back in the day, but with more features and services.
I highly recommend First Tech, their programs, and now our dedicated Premier Rewards Banking Representative.

We are very pleased with the service from Amber Fish. She provides timely information about the products with which we may have an interest. She provides various views including positive and negative for each. As a result we have increased our funds with First Tech.

I'v been with First Tech for 34 years and on the Premier Program with Amber Fish for over 4 years. Amber is always there for any banking questions, requests like adding beneficiaries, adding new Accounts, CDs, Trust accounts, etc. Amber is very responsive throughout the day and saves me many trips to the local branch. She lets me know of new promotions & CD rates. I'm really grateful for having this service on First Tech with Amber. She is the best at her job. Even being remote to my location, I prefer her over someone in local office.

I’ve been with Firstech over 35 years since my early days with HP. Firstech always has been my primary bank, and I enjoyed their services very much. Lately I’ve increased my business with Firstech after my retirement, since their products, like bump up CDs met my requirements very well. Masha Alaron, as my primary contact, is paying attention to my requirements and working with me closely to ensure my accounts are properly served.
If anyone likes the small banking environment with friendly people, I’d would highly recommend Firstech.

Excellent Services
The service was personal and very helpful. The staff representative provided me important additional information I was not aware of. I missed the first call because of a misunderstanding but got called again to ensure the connection. I also got great help to setup a new application.
Many thanks for the continued excellent and personal services!

Great Premiere Banking Representative
I have been in the Premiere Banking program at First Tech for several years now. Taaniya has been wonderful throughout that time as our Premiere representative, checking in with us regularly, making sure we have the information we need to make good choices among First Tech's services, and keeping us aware of what is coming in the greater financial world (such as interest rate changes). Thanks, Taaniya!
