Visions Federal Credit Union is THE BEST

Posted by: |

I have been with Visions for about 4 years. All can say is why didn't I join sooner?! The employees are very friendly and love their jobs(according to what they tell me). When I set up both my checking and savings accounts, it was very easy and haven't had any issues at all what so ever. They really treat loyalty well. If you stick with Visions they reward you with gifts all the time. I've gotten discounted tickets to theme parks, toys for my son, etc. The dividends I get on my savings account aren't that great but I mainly work out of my checking and don't have much for savings anyway. Overall, my experience has been above and beyond what I expected and if I ever were to move, I would stick with them because their mobile app and online banking is very user-friendly and always getting revamped.

Excellent credit union

Posted by: |

As a former Visions customer, I have nothing but praise for them. Unfortunately, I moved outside of their service area otherwise I would still be a member. In all my years as a member, they never made a single error concerning my accounts. So far, no other banking institution has ever come close to this level of excellence. I would defintely recommend Visions to anyone who is interested in good customer service and low rates. Thank you!

Good Service, Bad Deposit Rates

Posted by: |

I have been a member for decades, and recall when VFCU used to have among the best deposit rates in the country. However, for the last several years, VFCU's rates have just not been competitive. They seem to be more interested in refurbishing their buildings then returning dividends to their depositors. In these days of online banking, if you're looking for the best deposit rates, I would say it definitely pays to shop around since you can easily do better than VFCU.

Managed By And Operated At Inferior Standards

Posted by: |

Bad Management and Unaccountable Attitude are the two ways I can describe this bank. After days and five contacts, I could not get answer for or available manager, who could explain to me why Vision failed to carry out an electronic transfer of my funds. Vision, from top, is led by management with poor experience and education, upon apparent nepotism. I will not invest a dime in Vision.
