    For years, Alterna Savings has been my bank of choice because of their dedication to community,…read moresmall businesses and their support to me as a client. As a long term customer, I am particularly pleased with Asma Shams, a personal banking officer at the Billings Bridge location in Ottawa. Asma is extremely knowledgeable about the services Alterna offers, financial matters in general, and provides sound advice and options to support my financial goals. Asma goes out of her way to ensure customers are aware of Alterna services and financial options. She is one of the most pleasant, people oriented and business minded banking officers I have met over the past few years. I highly recommend her as a point of contact to discuss any banking or financial issues.

    Update: As time as gone on I am more familiar now with this Coop. While the branch has good staff,…read morethe credit union not so much. I DO NOT recommend using Alterna. For a number of reasons. They come out on top for withholding information, and outright lying and not being honest with their customers. It is astounding what we have found out about them in the last few days. Discussions with their people for some banking needs has led us to find out certain information they withheld; discussions with other finance institutions (not banks) has revealed that they have the reputation in finance circles as a ridiculously difficult place to obtain a mortgage and were advised to stay away from them. Indeed we see now that after 4 years there have been promises not kept, and that they have no inclination to really help a customer...just keep your business. It's hard enough right now to live in this day and age. One would think that a bank would want to take your money, help you invest, or purchase a home. Let me tell you, the joke was on us. Don't let it be on you as well.
