Good reputation
I decided to open an account at Carolina Foothills Federal Credit Union because they had a good reputation and they were known for more sound practices overall than some corporate banks. Their service is usually very good, unless they are really busy then you have to wait for a while. My checking and savings accounts were free and only required me to have a minimum of $25. Since opening my account that minimum has gone down to $5. While they are a business they seem to do a good job at giving the customer a savings. I have had times where my account was overdrawn and I wasn't able to bring it positive for several days. Many times the credit union did not charge me their $35 fee. I have been in direct communication over the internet with a couple different associates but one in particular goes above and beyond for me regularly. I appreciate her effort and it makes me want to stick with the bank and have a good relationship with them.
