Great credit union
I have been a member of this credit union for 20+ years. There is a reason I am still there, they care about their customer. I will walk in the credit union and the person will know your name already and just ask how much you need. They have over 5000+ members so that is amazing that they remember it. Also they will beat any banks deals on things such as car loans, personal loans and etc. For example when I went to get my car loan I was offered 3% on the interest. They beat that and gave me the loan with a 1.9% interest rate! They do have a online banking site that is alright but isn't on the bigger banks level (the reason I only gave them a 4 on the Web/Mobile Experience part). However the security on the web site is 2x better than a bigger bank as they make you go through 2 levels of security plus have a picture (that the customer picks) to make sure your account is secure. This is a great credit union and probably better than most banks.
