Puerto Rico Federal Credit Union

Best Place For My Savings

I love my account in the Puerto Rico Federal Credit Union. I use it strictly for savings because it is out of the way for me and therefore impossible for me to access my funds if the temptation were to come around. I have a regular savings account, which used to be better, to be honest. I used to have an interest of 0.9% in that account, but in the course of a year they slowly lowered it to 0.5%, which made me look for options. They have pretty decent CD rates, which I was tempted with. A one year CD is valued at 1.00%, which tempted me, but I didn't particularly want to lock in my savings for that long in case an emergency came along. I settled on their Christmas Club, which had the same interest rate and automatically transferred my funds back to regular savings on November. Not bad. Also, I could make deposits during the year on which I could gain interest on. Bottom line, I've quadrupled my savings in the past three years by using this credit union's services. I'd suggest their services to anybody who lives in the metropolitan area in Puerto Rico.
