Valley FCU
I have been a customer of Valley FCU for 3 1/2 years. I was unhappy with the fees in the bank I was using. I friend told me about them and I visited. The customer service in the bank is outstanding. The customer service rep handled setting up my checking and savings accounts. To this day, she still handles my needs. I have never had a bank where you have one person for all your needs with a low level bank. I am sure the bank has fees, and remember getting a list of them. But in my banking experience, I have never accrued a fee. It is free checking. The savings pay a low interest rate. But I have never been charged a fee for anything on my account. I highly recommend Valley FCU as a credit union.
Valley Federal Credit union - a small bank with big services
I began banking with Valley Federal Credit Union about three years ago. I switched to the credit union on the advice of a friend. I am so happy I did. Though there was the usual teller window, I was acquainted with a personal bank employee who helped me with all my needs. She set me up with a Rewards Checking and Savings Account. This account pays interest on my deposits. It is nice to see a deposit every month. I particularly like the mobile site. I can access it across all of my mobile devices. The site is very easy to use, intuitive. I use the site everyday to monitor my accounts and make sure there are no unusual charges. I highly recommend this credit union for their personal service, choices and mobile apps.
Good CU in Montana
My wife and I switched to this credit union after Wells Fargo charged us yet another unnecessary fee. Valley Federal Credit Union has been very good to us. They offer amazing interest rates on their checking account. Of course, there are some "catches" to getting the interest rates: You have to run your card as a credit card at least 15 times a month and use direct deposit. For the most part, this is not a problem because everybody has direct deposit now days, and using your card 15 times a month is not that hard when you consider grocery shopping, buying snack, eating out, etc.
We have been with them for 2 years now and have yet to receive any hidden or unnecessary fees like big banks like to dish out.
They will also refund ATM fees since they don't have their own ATMs set up (like big banks do), which is very nice because taking cash out when you are on the road could get expensive!
