Hidden Fees
I have had various accounts with FCU for over 10 years. Last year I needed a loan under $2000 to repair a vehicle I had a loan on. I went in with documentation from my personal injury lawyer showing I was to receive a settlement of over $100,000 within 6 months to 1 year. I have a job, my credit is ok but they declined the loan because my credit was not good enough (another local CU had no problem giving me the loan).
I didn't completely drop them at that point. I still had my direct deposit go there. 6 month later now I am being charged fees to cash other payroll or state checks if my account falls under $200! I thought this was FREE CHECKING!? I have NEVER been charged a fee before but they are trying to tell me it has always been this way. Whatever I know it has not, therefore either your policy changed or you are lying!
I have an acct at a local BANK and they have the $200 rule, but I knew that when I got the accounts, they were very clear about fees with their bank. Wish Fox Com was that clear.
My loyalty has not paid off and if I own part of this CU then I revoke it because customer service is NOT helpful, they lie about policy and don't get me started on the website issues!
I will be transferring all my business to one of my other bank/Credit unions! If I could give a negative rating I would.
Oh, and when I wanted a credit card FCCU declined that too, but the other CU had no problem giving me one! hmmm???
