Came For The Rates, Stayed For The Service
This is a great CU - the CD specials they have been running are very competitive. But I've also noticed that they provide great service and have a lot of other products available (including retirement planning and insurance).
NEW ACCOUNT FUNDING LIMIT: $ 50,000 (VIA ACH)
The ACH limit for new accounts is $ 50,000 for funding from an EXTERNAL bank account. Understand that their limit for an ACH for an established account holder is $250,000. but NOT on the initial account funding.
If you wish to open a CD-Certificate of Deposit for any amount over $50,000 up to FDIC/NCUA insurance limit of $250,000 individual/ $500,000 joint you should open a share savings account only initially ($5.00 minimum) and DO NOT click on any other financial product(s) for a CD (12 month, 18 month, etc) if your intention is to deposit more than thE $50,000 limit because the system will not allow you to finish the application. You will get caught up in their system as I did. I simply closed the web page and I will start the application another time. The CD minimum is $ 500 with max $50,000 allowed on new application for funding via ACH from your external bank account, hence, the forewarning.
Regular Share Account Minimum $1000 !!!
Yes, Regular Share Account minimum will be $1000 starting 9/1/24. Yes, one thousand dollars. Regular Share account does not earn any interest ! Monthly fee of $5 on balances below $1000. Seems to me this Credit Union is looking for brainless customers. Nobody else should become a member.
Fake Cds Not What They Claim
Absolutely stay away from their rising rate accounts. They dont rise they only create new rising rate accounts.
