I love the Philadelphia credit union, especially the Roosevelt boulevard branch. The employees are always so friendly, and eager and willing to help. I can honestly say I've never had a bad experience. I recommend PFCU to anyone.

The customer service is either average or bad. The fees are non existent. The good thing about a credit unioin is that I do not have to maintain a certain amount of money. I can have a zero balance and not be charged fifteen dollars per month or have my account closed. There are not enough branches around although I live in the center of the city and there are only two branches not close by. The down side is that to withdraw money you go to a convenience store and only one branch has an atm that allows you to make deposits.
This was a joint account that hadn't been checked for 2 months. Did not know that my account was in the negative for more than 30 days. Although we've had this account for about 20 years they shut it down after 30 days for a negative account that I was unaware of. That in itself is terrible, deplorable an unfair. 20 years, no problems. Shut down after 30 days. I would never bank at this location ever again. And I don't recommend anyone else to do so.
