Welcome to 7 17 Credit Union
We're excited to officially welcome Geauga Credit Union members to the 7 17 Credit Union family. As we prepare for the final system conversion on November 2, 2026, we've put together this guide to help make your transition as smooth as possible. Rest assured your Burton and Middlefield branches will stay open after the conversion with the same hours you’re used to!
If you have questions at any point during the conversion, call us at (440) 834-4327 or visit your local branch.
On November 2, 2026, the Geauga phone lines will reroute to 7 17’s phone number at 800-775-7741. Please start calling this line after November 2. Similarly, the website will also begin redirecting to 717cu.com on November 2. Please use 7 17’s website for your online banking needs.
