Maine savings is the ONLY credit union I have ever used. I first went in skeptical, but their friendly and knowledgeable staff convinced me to open an account with them and 4 years later I do not regret it! As a young person, I had not many ideas about saving, butt with their service fee free savings accounts with versatile interest rewards options made me feel more secure in my decision. Red wallet reward options are pretty unique and definitely not something that any other bank in the area offers. I would also like to say that they are very understanding and lenient with overdraft fees and financial accidents as long as they are corrected when noticed, as long as you keep up to date on finances there should be no issue with this credit union, they are truly great and so helpful for someone like me who doesn;t really know much about savings and investment.
I closed my account in person at this bank. Cancelled my card, withdrew all my money, then moved across the country. Two years later I found out they tried to send me a small bill after I had done this. They have no record for what it is or when it was or how much it is. According to a credit report it was less than $50. Even though I closed the account in person and none of this should have happened, I know have a delinquency on my credit that has dropped my score from almost 800 to 550 and I have slowly had it rise back to 650 which is still garbage for getting a mortgage. I have emailed multiple times with no response and have called multiple times with no help. Essentially the bank has no idea what happened, but still won't remove the blemish from my account. This could cost my thousands of dollars if I buy a home before the 7 years it takes to fall off my record. I would highly suggest to not even THINK of using Maine Savings. They are lazy, they are dumb, and they should not handle be allowed to handle any individual's money.
