Great Credit Union

Posted by: |

I originally joined for the Kasasa checking at 6.05% up to 20k. Later they had a great 5.9% rate on 2y CDs and customer service was excellent in helping me get it opened. Because of a PayPal mistake, three fees were incurred which Pelican promptly reversed for me after calling in. The mobile app is very good.

Recently, I had a check stolen from the mail which got fraudulently deposited to someone else's account. Pelican helped me through the process and a just couple of days after I completed the dispute process, the money was credited back to my account.

Great credit union all around !!

Beware Of Account Settings!

Posted by: |

E-Statements are required to get this rate. E-Statements are not set up at account opening. To do so is obscure. There is no link on the webpage. From your account, go to “settings” and “documents” click “enroll”. I got tricked on this.

Watch Your Kasasa Acct - They Play DEB Card Games

Posted by: |

Pelican has decided that all DEB card purchases won't be counted. Some transactions are now being referred to as "Bill Pay" even though the DEB card itself was used. Streaming Services (Peacock & Discovery) now don't qualify toward the DEB count? Just enough DEBs pulled to stop paying Interest for the month. Terminated the Kasasa account immediately - can't be trusted.

I still have Certificates with them and have had no problems in this area.
