BETHESDA, Md. — The $1.4 billion Eastman Credit Union, the largest in Tennessee, has opted to sign with the Allpoint Network, the network has announced.

Allpoint is the largest ATM network, in terms of machines, whose transactions are surcharge free to cardholding participants. Participating financial institutions pay a monthly fee to Allpoint which gives their cardholders the ability to make fee-free transactions at Allpoint machines.

"ECU strives to offer the services and value that our members want and deserve," noted Linda Cox, an executive with ECU. "Joining the nation's largest surcharge-free ATM network provides convenience to our members where they live, work and travel."

Allpoint provides ECU members more than 475 surcharge-free ATMs across Tennessee located at convenient retailers, the network said.
