TERMS Change At Interior Federal CU (Even For EXISTING Cds) - 7/18/2022

Rather than a "Rate Change" this is a MAJOR "Terms Change" -- very important since it concerns one of the promotions going on now (a 56mo "Bump Up" CD @ 3.31%) as well as past Bump-Up Promotions at Interior. A friend of mine banks with Interior Federal Credit Union (he turned me on to DA in the first place actually) and found out some disappointing news this morning so I thought I'd pass it along since I have an account here. In a nutshell: Interior FCU can (and will -- in August apparently) CHANGE the Early Withdrawal Penalty for their "Bump Up" CDs, and only the CURRENT EWP policy (at the point in time you want to take your funds out early) will be honored, NOT the EWP that was in place at the time the CD was opened -- at least for the "Bump Up" CDs (since these are the only ones about to be affected, it's unknown if in the future they can change non-Bump-Up CDs as well). DETAILS: When you apply for the CD (before the CD is created) you download the current "MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT",

Interior Federal Credit Union CD Rates Surge Upward - 7/15/2022

Interior Federal Credit Union (easy membership) has significantly raised the rates on its long-term Jumbo Share Certificates. Minimum opening deposit is $100k.

Interior FCU Offers National Leading IRA Rates - 36 Month Jumbo (2.94%APY), 48 Month Jumbo (2.89%APY) - 6/23/2022

While Interior Federal Credit Union regular CD rates do not get a lot of attention, these rates in an IRA are very competitive nationally. According to their web site, "All certificate lengths are also available as Traditional or Roth IRA Certificates, Coverdell Education Savings Account Certificates, and Health Savings Account Certificates." Ken classifies Interior FCU as an Easy Membership credit union and, therefore, their products are widely available. Some examples of terms and rates (Jumbo IRA's require a $100,000 minimum) 12 Month Jumbo IRA 2.08% APY (2nd for 1 year IRA category) 20 Month Bump Up Jumbo IRA 2.38% APY (1st for 18 month IRA category) 36 Month Jumbo IRA 2.94% APY (1st for 3 year IRA category) 48 Month Jumbo IRA 2.89% APY (1st for 4 year IRA category) Details here https://www.interiorfcu.org/accounts/share-certificates/

A Hidden Gem For CD's

Posted by: |

Pros:

- CD rates are very competitive, sometimes beating online banks.
- 6-month CD charges a very modest early withdrawal penalty, just 30 days of interest
- Helpful and friendly customer service
- Never had an issue with mailed checks getting lost (unlike another review)
- Very good online banking system for a small credit union
- Shared branching access

Cons:

- A bit difficult to get a membership open if you have a number of Chexsystems inquiries from rate/bonus-chasing.
- Opening a membership is a hard pull on Equifax, but the hard pull can be re-used for loans within 30 days
- There's a fee for originating an outgoing ACH transfer, but you can avoid it if you pull funds using the external institution

Forget About It

Posted by: |

Wanted to buy a large-value Roth IRA CD when they had a good rate for about a 2-week period of time.
Applied for online membership, uploaded my ID, they did a credit check (my FICO is 820) and took a $25 fee, No further action for 3 weeks. No issues or concerns raised. Nothing. Meanwhile their CD rates fell by 0.5% and are no longer competitive. Seriously? Why pretend to have a banking business when you make zero effort while making your customers jump through hoops for the privilege of letting you hold their money? Stay far away, these guys are losers.

Lost Bank Check - Incompetent!

Posted by: |

They lost a Bank check for substantial amount of money I sent to open a CD and for three days they were not returning calls. They said the guy that opened my account is on vacation so they are not sure if he had it. A woman said they have quite a few missing checks.

This is a nightmare.

Really Bad Experience

Another clueless credit union where they provide prospective customers with the wrong information and treating them as idiots.
