Greg W. — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:26:00 GMT

I've been a member for over ten years, and arranged my car loan through the credit union (much better rates than anyone else). I have a bank checking account for convenience, but with local ownership disappearing, I'm thinking of changing that, too. When I go in employees are polite and knowledgeable

I said no, even though it has two names its only payable to one if you look close, she then got up, not saying what she was doing and left for 5 minutes only to return a tell me that she could deposit the check into my account, I explained once again that I wanted to open a second account to deposit the check, I do not want it put into my account that Ive had for 24 years, she said you will have to fill out a application, I said my information hasnt changed but Ill fill it out, while filling it out I said I need a couple temporary checks and & $75 dollars to take with me, she said you cant get the checks till later, I explained that she could give me some temporary that are printed up on a machine in that back, she then got up again not saying what she was doing only to return with another lady of witch I had to explain form start to finish what I wanted, the second lady then explained to Erika that they could print up temporaries and left. Erika then tells me this is going to take about 45 minutes, I said I have time and my sister needs to buy groceries today.

5 Stars: Better than chain banks!!! (by Stephanie S.)

WSECU has been the best banking decison I have made. I've been a member for 4 years. I do all my banking online and use their online bill payer program (free). Everything is included...free checks, accounts (at least what I have), overdraft protection. The only downside that I have is if I have a check to cash, I need to use a US BANK cash machine. I do not get charged though. I think there are other options. I just need to read up on it. If you work for a school district in any way, I highly suggest that you check them out!!! www.secuwa.org!!!!

5 Stars: fine banking (by Melissa S.)

I joined the credit union shortly after starting this job. I knew nothing about them, but was unhappy with my previous bank. I quickly learned why my parents have been banking with the SECU for 35 years. Service is exceptional even better than Nordstrom. My checks are free, they dont charge me for low balance on either checking or savings, and they helped me buy a car.
