SAN DIEGO — On November 13th, Great American Credit Union members will be voting on whether or not to merge with Pasadena-based Wescom Credit Union.

The move is designed to enhance the value of membership for the $57 million credit union–from more branches and additional services including free bill pay and 24-hour loan application approval, to a larger ATM network and more investment and insurance products.
