Loooooove Space City CU!
I absolutely love Space City. Going into the branch is like going to visit family. They know my name, ask me about my children and family, and are ALWAYS friendly.
Because they keep up with me and my family, they are able to offer me things that I don't think of. I came in to get a car loan for my daughter and they reminded me that they have a partnership with an insurance company. Their company saved me money on my rates so adding a teenager wasn't as harmful on my wallet as I thought it was going to be.
Plus Space City has all the cool features of a "big bank" like a mobile app where you can taking a picture of your check to deposit it.
If you like personable service where people know your name and are genuinely concerned about you and your financial well-being, this is the place for you! Thanks Space City for looking out for me and my family!
Space City CU Rocks!
Space City CU has great rates and great services, everything I need to do my banking IN PERSON or on the Internet. I just got a 5 year CD at 2.26% APY... !!!
awesome bank!
I have had a savings account with SSCU for 6 years now, and it is the best! I collect interest, and the staff is very nice!
Watch Out For Fees
started to join, then saw their fees. $5 a month unless you jump through several hoops. Kind of a GOTCHA pricing structure. Will go elsewhere.

Ally Bank money market checking 0.85% which is more than 3x as much!

Ally Bank cd's 6 month 0.60% which is more than twice as much!
Space City cd 60 month 1.76%

Ally Bank, an online bank doesn't have branches, but that doesnt matter since they reimburse for ATM fees, allow you to take a picture of checks to deposit, saving you time from driving to a branch, and gives you free envelopes to mail in deposits if you dont want to deposit the checks online.
