However, all I needed to know is when the funds would be available for use and the representative told me she could not tell me that because that information is not on their system. I needed to check each day to see when the hold was released. A financial institution, according to Reg CC, must tell a customer when funds will be available, which is a federal regulation. I was on hold for over 20 minutes for a very simple question that still was not answered.

My checking account number is one of the oldest active numbers. In December 2025, I had to order checks. Chase charged me $46.00 for the checks. I requested the charge be waived due to my long-standing relationship and the fact I live on a fixed income. Their response was "Paul, upon reviewing your account ending in ****, We are unable to refund the check order fee for $46 we charged you. We appreciate you being a Chase customer." Chase obviously does DOES NOT value my account. Longevity and loyalty mean nothing to this organization.

I struggled with Chase over credit card blocks even though I always paid my bills on time. Chase sent me one to use in Korea when I visited there. But the restaurants and vendors said Chase is impossible to deal with and could I please use cash. Lastly, a nice female banker helped me send funds to friends in Korea previously. This time around, two arrogant men who run the branch refused, supposedly to"protect me." I had warned them to stop interfering in my business or I'd take it elsewhere. And I just did.

You have that right. I was supposed to pay them for having accounts in their bank and letting them use that money for their own gain. Instead, I moved all of them to another bank. My clients and I have been much happier.

I guess that means tellers don't see very many customer either, which brings me here to write a review, or should I say a complaint. No one was in line, so Jennifer (Jenny) called me right up. I just needed a money order, but apparently you can't buy it with cash, you need to deposit your cash, then take a money order out from your account, so Jenny tried to explain this to me in the shortest and least informative way. I'm just being normal, but I feel like I'm being talked down too, she had this tone. A little sincerity here would have gone a long way. Hope her day gets better quick so someone else doesn't get the bad attitude too.

Their branch office on Peterson Avenue is very modern, beautifully decorated, with state-of-the art equipment. That also have an adjacent parking lot and drive-thru ATM.

They are difficult to reach and work out and today I was told they will not stop marketing to my email account because I need my husband's permission for that. They literally told me to have my husband call because I am not empowered to ask them to stop sending email! I have tried to unsubscribe from every possible version of a mailing list but they just keep respawning. It is like being stuck in a dystopian video game. Do not do business with them.

I had several large sums deposited and then withdrawn. The bank decided it was going to be scammed and closed my account without any discussion.

They have a very good interest rate for your checking account, but it can be a little difficult to reach the numbers you need to get the highest percentage. The only issue I have is my auto loan is suppose to be on auto pay, but I have to manually pay it from time to time, not sure what the bug is. All in all, it's a good credit union, and blows the water out of any bank around.

You're disconnected immediately so I waited and waited and waited for their callback. As soon as I answered the call back I was disconnected.

This is incredibly frustrating so now I'm going to have a recurring charge and I can't stop it. I will move all my accounts over to PNC Bank where things like this just don't happen.
