First Entertainment Federal Credit Union -- Good Service

First Entertainment Credit Union (4 stars)
My experience with First Entertainment FCU in Hollywood was good. They were clear and informative about the products, fees, anything else they offer. I went into the branch to open my membership and to open a CD. All went smoothly. 

I note, they are part of the shared branch system under which various credit unions agree to let other credit union's members make transactions. I consider this a major benefit as it provides a lot more options all over the country to go to a branch to take care of some of your transactions. 

The only issue I have found with the shared branch system is some limits on withdrawals -- seems they normally won't let you withdrawal more than about $500 of cash -- and fees if you want your withdrawal in check form, which would be necessary for larger withdrawals. But I have found no limits or fees on deposits.

First Entertainment had good service in person and on the Internet. Their rates are not always very high, though, but every once in a while they have a good promotion to grab.
