Rochester, NY -- For added member convenience, ESL Federal Credit Union has joined the Presto! ATM Network. ESL members can now make surcharge-free ATM transactions at Presto! ATMs, located at any Publix Super Market within Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee and Alabama. Members, who use either their ESL Check Card or ESL ATM Card, will not be charged the PRESTO! $2.00 usage fee when making withdrawals, balance inquiries and transfers.

"We consistently have received feedback from our members who reside or travel to Florida requesting ATM access," said Celeste Kier, ESL Federal Credit Union Vice President/Marketing Director. "Florida is one of the most popular vacation spots for Rochesterians. Now our members can receive surcharge-free access away from home."
