I was told by Dept of Commerce FCU that they do a hard pull when one wants to join them (an older post from Ken said soft, but when I called, they said hard).
Question for those who've had more than one CD with them:
Do they have to do a credit check each time you open a new account (including each time you want to open a new CD?) This actually IS the case at some other CUs (clear to those who keep their credit files frozen by default).
If it's just a one-time pull when you join I don't mind, but if it needs to be done with each CD opened as it is with some other places, then I will not bother joining them. Please post on your experiences. Thank you.
