The Texas Ratio is an indicator of how much funds a bank has available compared to the total value of loans considered at risk. As of September 30, 2011 Broadway Federal Bank had $47.98 million in non-current loans and owned real-estate with $48.74 million in equity and loan loss allowances on hand to cover it. This gives Broadway Federal Bank a Texas Ratio of 98.44% which is poor. Any bank with a Texas Ratio near or greater than 100% is considered at risk.

Opened A Two Year CD Online.
5 stars - grnbsh - Sunday, June 20, 2010 - 3:44 AM

Opened a two-year CD online on 05/31/2010, at 2.51%.  I sent them a check on 06/08/2010 and it was received by 06/10/2010, but the rates dropped to 2%, then to 1.5% in the meantime for the two-year CD.  I was concerned about this, but since they guaranteed the rate to me, everything work out fine.  They answered the phone each time I called, which was two phone calls, and answered after 4-5 rings.  The customer service representative informed me that my rate at the time of opening the account was good for thirty days, which I got in writing, both in e-mail and regular mail.  I informed the service representative that I would write a positive review, because everything went great.  Of course, I appreciate the updates that this website has for the best rates at banks and credit unions.

Broadway Federal Bank Review
1 stars - tomlawler - Wednesday, June 16, 2010 - 3:55 PM

I had a poor experience with this outfit last week.  Their 3.56% 6-year CD  attracted my attention so I called their LA office last Monday (6/710).  By the way, their phone system is just plain horrible as it takes several options to finally get a live person.  When I finally do get a person, whose name I'll omit, she states that the rate was still in effect.   I tell her that's great and I'll get my check and application (printed from their website)  in the mail immediately by priority mail.  I do so and it's postmarked that very day.  Two days later I get a call back from the same rep saying that the rate has dropped  over a full percentage point.  Obviously I no longer want the CD, but I inquire why I shouldn't get the promo due to the postmark on my application.  She had no good answer.  Long story short:  This bank wasted my time and is not user friendly.

 

PS   Depositaccounts.com needs to remove Broadway Federal from the  6+ year CD offers.  The 3.56% yield     is no longer available as of 6/8/10.
