Security Service’s basic savings and money market accounts offer unlimited ATM transactions and have low minimum opening balance requirements. Its Club Savings account does not allow for withdrawal due to its higher rate of interest return.

This credit union has become an intergral part of my life!
I've had several banks and one other credit union in the past and I've never felt as if I've mattered to any of them. But at SSFCU I know that I'm not just some other random person! The employees at this credit union have gone out of the way not only to help us get the best loans but to help us when we recently moved out of state and ran into some problem with getting our new direct deposit set up! The person who attended us stayed 2 hours after her shift ended to ensure our documents were received and recorded so our loan payment would not be late!! I don't know of any other bank establishment caring so much as to even stay open for another 5 minutes to help someone in need!!
Security Service Federal Credit Union
I have a been member at Security Service Federal Credit Union for well over a year. In my time with the credit union, I have had absolutely no issues. My checking and savings accounts have no fees associated with them, due to my have having direct deposit and maintaining a minimum balance.
Couldn't Imagine Banking Elsewhere
I have banked with Security Service FCU for nearly my whole life I couldn't imagine banking with anyone else. Their mall locations are open seven days a week, and their other locations are open Monday through Saturday much later then other banks. Their website is modern and constantly being updated. It's good and simple for online banking, bill paying, and keeping track of purchases as it updates almost immediately after you make them. Their mobile app allows you to keep track of your accounts and transactions, and you can use it to deposit checks, make transfers, and pay bills. I almost never have to go to an actual physical location anymore. Furthermore, their customer service is the best, in my experience. Whenever I have an issue, a quick phone call usually fixes it right away. Every time I call, no matter what time or issue, I was never on the phone for more then 15 minutes and was never put on hold. When my debit card information was stolen, and several fraudulent charges were made on my account, I called around 2 AM and instantly got a representative who helped calm me and walked me through the process. The charges were instantly reversed and funds credited to my account the same morning. There's almost no fees involved, and I'm overall very happy.
Absolute Worst Financial Institution Ever!
I am in the process of pulling my deposited funds from this institution. SSFCU would not allow me to add my wife to any of the accounts! I will pull every dime out of this place and will warn EVERYONE to NEVER have any dealings with them.
