Very pleased with the responsiveness and wide range of services
We’ve been members of the Credit Union for decades and are very pleased with the services. Our local representative, Amanda, has helped us for many years with CDs, new accounts, and advice on many topics – always patient with our many & sometimes complicated queries, and time effective. The agents online and at the 800# are very responsive and thorough. The website is greatly improved in the last few years and works smoothly; handy to have access to our accounts and to do transfers between accounts & other financial institutions. Statements are well organized and posted in a timely manner.

That the agent is on top of things and reminds me that my CD is mature and to assist with my compromised credit card
when I walk into the building, I'm always greeted with a pleasant greeting and is always willing to assist even if I have a dumb question. So, far I have not had a bad experience...
