Located across the Ice Level sports where I was getting my skates sharpened, and you'll notice the red glass all over, especially from a distance and when walking into the lobby. A good thing too considering how much sun comes from the south in Richmond, according to one of my realtor friends, but I digress as usual.... Very spacious, they sure didn't try to cramp as much as they can. High glass ceilings. Branch manager Felix very helpful, pointed out that due to their new location and getting new clients, they're offering better GIC & mortgage rates, even a LOC at prime, for a limited time..can't remember if that's secured or not. Lots of parking too, and it's not shared too. The Breast Cancer theme is going around, so bought the pink lunch box BPA free, with the fork/spork/knive which snaps on top of lid, a $10 donation is well worth it ;)

Their customer service is also excellent. The majority of the bank tellers there are Asian from what I've observed but that's probably due to the Asian speaking community it's in. However, they all speak good English and they're able to help out in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Not sure about other language. Today, I went in and got help from Winston for my direct deposit and other things, he was very helpful and extremely efficient. People that went to him came and left within minutes. He also called me afterwards to double check some information and he still very polite as well. All in all, very good customer service. Would I come back? Yep! Of course!

I finally decided to switch from one of the Big 5 Banks (BMO) to a local credit union. I spent…read morequite a bit of time researching all my options, and I chose Community Savings Credit Union. The reasons that I was unhappy with BMO are as follows. ATMs I've been banking at BMO for 10 years. At the time, the major banks all had ATMs at particular locations - RBC at Chevrons, CIBC at 7-elevens and BMO was at all the Safeways... We decided that the Safeway choice for non-branch ATMs would be the most convenient for us... A few years later, BMO shut down all the Safeway ATMs. The only way to access free cash is to go to a branch (teller or ATM). Around the same time, other institutions began charging "convenience fees" in addition to the regular Interac fee. What upsets me is that BMO was still making Billions $$$, it's not like they had to shut down their Safeway ATMs. Customer Service When we joined BMO the staff at our branch were very kind to us. I was given their business cards upon leaving and was told that I could email with any questions. I did have a question several months later, but the staff person was no longer at the branch. I have seen so many people come and go in my local branch that I have not been able to build a rapport with anyone. The only explanation that I can think of is that they must not treat their employees well (or pay them well). They're making Billions $$$ and they can't retain staff! Non-local staff A few times when I was talking to the "call centre" I was offered a new lending product (credit card, loc extension). When I agreed, I was then forwarded to another person at a different location, this person would take the application and then tell me that it'd be forwarded to the "lending dept" somewhere, and that I'd get call back? Once I then got a call back denying my "requested credit limit increase"... First of all, I didn't request it, it was offered. Secondly, I didn't really need it, I have a large credit limit and I don't carry a balance. I just don't like being offered something, then forwarded to two people and then denied something that I had never asked for in the first place. I've heard of this happening in other Big Banks as well... The employees are so focused on "up-selling"... When deciding on where to take my business, I chose Community Savings for the following reasons. They are unionized and they adhere to the "minimum living wage". Because of this, they are rated by the employees as one of the best places to work in Canada and they have long employee tenure (average 11 years). I expect to see the same people at my branch for years to come. I can use ANY credit union (not just my credit union) ATM, including for deposits. No more ATM fees on my monthly statements! There always seems to be a credit union that's nearby, so I don't expect to pay Interac fees or "convenience fees" anymore! I don't expect them to make service cuts to please shareholders. Since the members are shareholders, service cuts wouldn't please us... They are very innovative. They were the first institution in Canada to offer internet banking, they have mobile banking (via text), they have mobile internet (smartphone browser). I expect them to continue to offer services that benefit the members (like me) rather than offer new service reluctantly and only when it saves money (which is how I felt at the Big Bank). My wife, baby and I met with Community Savings Credit Union this week. They were very kind to us, they took turns holding our baby and helped us open our account. We're very happy with the service and we're glad that we made the switch.

I have been more than pleased as they do go the extra mile including allowing deposits being made at any exchange ATM not just credit unions but the banks that use exchange ATMs. I even was helped on Christmas day when there was an issue with my debit card no way would a bank do that. They have always provided excellent service if you "make the switch consider this credit union.

Don't listen to the fool that says it's spacious. The one on Bridgeport turns their atm off too but leaves the door open.
