MAPLE GROVE, MN--(Marketwire - March 9, 2011) - Como Northtown Community Credit Union announces that it will merge with TopLine Federal Credit Union, following a member vote on March 8, 2011.

"We are confident that this merger with TopLine will provide expanded services, branches and ATMs for our members, and its financial resources will strengthen our credit union," says Dr. Betsy Garcia, Chair, Como Northtown Community Credit Union board of directors.

The new TopLine Federal Credit Union at Como Park branch will remain open and continue to offer the same products and services, along with several enhancements such as a full-service Mortgage division, student lending, debit and credit card rewards programs, business services, financial education and counseling services and more.

"We look forward to offering members of Como Northtown Community Credit Union the same high level of service they have always received, delivered by the same familiar faces Como members already know," says Harry Carter, President and CEO of TopLine Federal Credit Union.
