Teacher's Credit Union
My husband and I joined the Lake County Educational Federal Credit Union (LCEFCU) about three years ago. We were looking for a credit union as opposed to a large national bank where we knew we could receive personal attention with a small town feel but in the suburbs. We choose LCEFCU, as it came highly recommended from our colleagues. We switched to a federal credit union after receiving high interest rate quotes for a car loan from our previous national bank and we wanted to make our money work for us. Also, LCEFCU offered a higher return on our saving account percentage and CDs, at the time. Over the years, we have been more than pleased with our service at LCEFCU. The tellers offer a personal service to our family as they worked with us to get a low loan rate for our vehicle. When I deposit or withdraw money, the teller knows my name (several different tellers) and often ask questions about my children. They offer a personal touch to banking. By knowing my name and face, I have confidence in the credit union against fraud on my behalf. Plus, they always provide treats for my children. The credit union is involved in the community by offering seminars on smart financial banking and they offer fundraisers opportunities for community programs. I can complete all my banking online and there are no annual fees. Often times I will receive a "bonus" in my checking account for having my business with them. I love having ownership of my bank and having a voice, as the credit union is owned by the members. They also offer their members discounts to local attractions such as movies or park tickets. I would highly recommend the Lake County Educational Federal Credit Union.
