Vystar

Posted by: vaughnatkins | Mar 4, 2018

Vystar Credit Union is the only bank/credit I have ever used. To get a savings account, you must keep $5 in the account at all times, which does not show in your account. The savings account also gains a decent amount of interest, a few cents depending on your total saved. The checking accounts are free and generally have overdraft protection linked to savings account. As far as customer service, they are always extremely courteous and knowledgeable. Calling Customer Service, it is always easy to do what you need. Same things goes for in store. Also, you don't have to wait for a new card in the mail of you lose yours - they can print them in branch! My wife went to Vystar to get a loan, and instead of giving her a loan they gave her a new line of credit, which really helped us out. I would definitely rate them 5/5.

Penalized For Being A Victim Of Fraud

Posted by: forevertruth | Jul 11, 2017

***UPDATE: VyStar contacted me and resolved my issue. I am satisfied! Thank you.***

I am a victim of fraud and VyStar is penalizing me for it. I did not physically lose nor lost my card. I did not give out my information to anyone illegitimate. It got hacked into and money stolen from it. Vystar is charging me a liability fee when I was always told by them that the money is federally insured, and in case of illegitimate transactions, all of it will be refunded to me. I thought that a credit union like Vystar will give me piece of mind, but in reality there are just as careless, incompetent, and profit driven as Big Banks. Vystar is supposed to be non-profit. Why are they making members pay for their insecure cards? Members are NOT at fault because VyStar cybersecurity safeguards are too weak to withstand hacking. It is VyStar’ responsibility to place electronic safeguards on the cards ISSUED BY THEM. It’s bad enough that hard earned money was stolen from me, but now the institution that is supposed to protect my money is stealing it again.

As GOOD As It Gets! (Almost.........)

Posted by: OlGene | Dec 18, 2017

Been with these guys since 1976. Never a problem. they have been shoulder to shoulder with me, financially, through good times and bad.
Their CD rates are poor, and I guess that is because they build SO many new branches and need the money, but Navy Federal beats their (and ALL other) Badly.
