Premium Banking a great service
I've been working with Samuel Frutos in Premier Banking for a few months now, and have found him ready to help and helpful, without being pushy. He stays in touch, but doesn't call or email too much, and is good about being available when I need help.

Excellent introduction to Premier Banking!
Had my first meeting with Chris today and it was awesome. I asked a simple question about my trust and his diligence uncovered things weren’t quite set up the way they should be.

Loyal Customer of First Tech
I have been a member of First Tech since 1980, back when it was called Addison Avenue after Dave and Lucile Packard's Palo Alto garage. Since then the Credit Union has expanded and grown its services, and I have repeatedly chosen to stay their loyal customer.
Eileen Alvarez is one of the reasons. She's responsive, attentive and always wise in her advice.

First Tech Premier Rewards
I would like to share my outstanding experience with Premier Financial Services and specifically recognize the exceptional support I received from Eric Pseat.
As a client of the bank for 23 years, I have consistently appreciated the high level of service, but my recent interaction truly exceeded expectations. Eric demonstrated remarkable professionalism, deep knowledge, and genuine dedication to helping me achieve the best possible financial outcomes. He took the time to understand my needs, provided clear and thoughtful guidance, and ensured that every detail was handled efficiently and with care.
Premier Financial Services continues to stand out thanks to its personalized approach, responsiveness, and commitment to client success. The Premier support offering brings real value — from tailored financial solutions to priority service — making banking both seamless and reassuring.
I am grateful for the continued excellence and especially for Eric’s outstanding support. Experiences like this are exactly why I have remained a loyal client for more than two decades.
Thank you for maintaining such a high standard of service.

First Tech Premier Financial Rep Eric Pseat is the Best!
My husband and I have been very happy customers of First Tech Federal Credit Union and its predecessor Hewlett-Packard Credit Union for 50 years! Through the years, this credit union has provided us with favorable home and auto loans as well as fantastic yields on our personal saving accounts and certificates of deposit. Most of all, we appreciate the superb customer service we receive from our Premier Banking Team.
Our Premier Financial Representative, Eric Pseat, is located in San Diego, CA. We live more than 500 miles away, so our business is conducted by phone or e-mail. Eric is very personable, professional, responsive, and patient. He proactively identifies opportunities and offer alternatives to help us maximize our financial goals. Despite the physical distance, Eric’s excellent follow-through guarantees that every transaction is handled correctly and seamlessly — as if he is right next door. We love working with Eric!
Do yourself a favor and give Eric Pseat and the First Tech Premier Banking Team a call today!
