University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union
I have banked with the University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union since 2001. They have been helpful when I was struggling financially and have been even more helpful when I had the propensity to keep more money in the account that I currently have registered with them. All locations are friendly, willing to help and they go above and beyond your average bank. They were also very helpful and diligent in helping a potential write off that existed on my account as a 19 year old college student and quickly updated my credit report accurately. I could not ask for a better bank than UKFCU.
Quality Service
My experiences with University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union were very good throughout my times as a student at UK. I was able to have a no minimum balance student checking account which was extremely useful. As a student I often had under twenty dollars in my bank account. Many banks require a minimum balance but I could have any balance as long as it wasnt overdrawn without being assessed fees. I even overdrew a few times and was granted a grace period to get my balance up above 0 and STILL was not charged a fee. The customer service was great and I had nothing but positive experiences with the tellers and they were all very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this bank to anybody looking to bank with a credible, local bank.
UK Credit Union
I have been very pleased with my banking experience here. I always have a positive experience when dealing with employees. They have good rates and managing my checking and savings account are very easy. They also have a really helpful online site where I can manage my accounts with ease. There is a restriction on how many online transfers you can do per month though, so as long as that is kept in mind, it is a very useful tool. The only thing that would improve this bank would be more locations so it would be easier to access when you did need to go to the bank and it wouldn't be so out of the way.
Okay, but doesn't offer much the regular banks don't already have
I used to bank with the University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union when I was a student there. It was convenient since I was on campus so much. As far as banking goes, the place was pretty normal. No real surprises and they didn't screw anything up. My main complaint is that they would seem to hire inexperienced tellers. I'm not sure if they were college students or what, but the lines moved glacially slow because of them. They also hit me with a bunch of overdraft fees once, causing me to abandon that account. It's been a while, but I don't really feel like it was entirely my fault. It may have been due to them holding a deposit, but I'm not sure. Either way it left a bad taste in my mouth and I won't be a customer of their's again.
UKFCU Car Loans
I've had (2) auto loans, (1) for 2 yrs and (1) for a little over a year. I've never had a gap in insurance coverage, but they somehow still apply force coverage on each loan every 6-8 months. This is a nightmare; they use an outside vendor, and it's a month or longer process having it removed each time. My 2014 vehicle increases from $12,000-$13,000, and the 2015 between $9,000-$10,000 each time. It's a process that has very little, if any oversight by UKFCU.
