Elevations Credit Experience
I went into elevations credit union because there were no local branches of my current bank within a reasonable distance. The local branch was a big building which was very attractive, and the staff was very accommodating. They asked me if I was a student and I told them yes. They set me up with a student account which was even a lot better that the current account I had with one of the big banks. I have not had a problem with weird fees or any other complaints with elevations like I used to have with my previous bank. I like the fact that they are a credit union and the fact that if I maintain a good banking relationship with them, I will have access to good rates on future money borrowed. When I go back east I find it hard to find an ATM where I am not charged fees. That is a bit annoying. Based on their relatively small reach, I don't know if I would bank with them exclusively.
Dumping Them After 25 Years
25 year credit union customer but I have recently dumped them entirely: Banking, Credit Cards, Loans, and Safe Deposit.
Recently (Nov 2011), they sold all customer personal financial data to Inuit without customer consent for their new online banking portal. Not only is the online banking even worse than before but Intuit owns your financial data and you get to look at ads for Intuit services in your online banking!
Final straw was a botched bill payment. When I called to ask about it they said bill pay is now handled by a third party but I couldn't talk to that third party and there was nothing they could do to resolve the situation.
When I pulled my money out the VP of online services called me to talk about it. I asked why the online banking was so much worse. Bottom line... they only test for and support for IE and one ancient version of FireFox. That was all I needed to hear. Run away as fast as you can.
