Customer Facing Inconvenient System Upgrade

Posted by: |

I've been a MAX CU member for over 25 years and an IT professional for 49 years and I have never seen such a customer facing inconvenient system upgrade! The web interface and and mobile app are unavailable from 8:30 am (CDT) Monday, June 23, 2025 until "We expect the new system to launch early afternoon on 6/23".

I cannot count the number (thousands) of customer facing upgrades I've participated in or led. All were done on nights, holidays, and weekends so that customer inconvenience was minimized. The MAX CU upgrade appears to be scheduled for the convenience of the IT vendor.

MAX CU used to have a member (customer) focus with a top rated APY interest checking account. Now they only pay a 3.04 % rate, over 1.50% APY below the leaders .
