Telco Plus Credit Union is a Texas-based banking institution headquartered in Longview, with roots dating to 1951 when it began as East Texas Telco Credit Union to serve employees of the local telephone company. It expanded over time, adding a Tyler branch in 1996 and adopting its current name in 1997 to reflect a broader membership base. It operates as a not-for-profit cooperative offering a range of deposit accounts, checking, and loan products to individuals who live or work in Gregg or Smith Counties, or who have a Telco Plus member in their family, or are employed by sponsor companies. Members are considered owners and have a voice in the institution's governance, reflecting a member-governed model typical of credit unions. In August 2019, Telco Plus announced the appointment of Lisa Carter as vice president of lending, a concrete leadership development noted in recent news.
