Behind The Times
I've had 4 credit union experiences, and SIU is the most archaic of all.
1. they only process mobile deposits one day a week.
2. Goverment checks...i.e. Soc. Sec. are not credited the day of receipt.
3. Overdraft charges, even though they will take funds from your savings to cover the difference, they will still charge you a fee.
4. Not open on weekends.
They are behind the times... this is 2023... you would think they would get with it.
NONE of the other Credit unions I had/have do not charge you for the overdraft.... and then they send you a letter threatening you with collections if you cannot settle the overdraft... for a whole $20.
