I had no familiarity with Credit Unions, so I started doing some homework. They offer all the banking services you need - online banking, fixed rate credit card, debit card, checking & savings, car loan, etc. All your deposits are insured/back up by the federal government up to $250,000 in a similar fashion to FDIC through the NCUA. All of the staff at the branch on Park Ave have always been very friendly and easy to deal with. I had gotten used to the attitude of the big banks, assuming that was basically the only option available. I'm glad to learn that's not the case. I highly recommend AllCom Credit Union to anybody in the Worcester area who wants to be treated like a human being when handling their banking & financial matters.

Updated: After my complaint this morning about the sale of…read moremy mortgage that I had expected to be kept and service by Bay State Bank (see below for initial review) the lending officer went to the VP of Retail Lending and they have decided to keep my mortgage in their portfolio and not sell it after all. I of course have no guarantee that it won't be sold in the future (as I knew was always a possibility) but the response I received is very promising and in line with my initial impression of Bay State Savings Bank. Due to the low owner occupancy in my building many small banks would not even consider handling my refinance. Bay State Savings bank impressed me from the beginning by the willingness of the branch manger to go back and forth to the underwriters even before my application was complete to find out if they could do the refinance. The initial service and flexibility I had experienced was why the unanticipated sale of my mortgage came as such a shock. I am pleased that when I made it clear that local servicing was critical to my satisfaction they responded within one business day and opted to reverse their decision to sell. Based on this response I am confident that there was no intention to deceive. Original Review: I just completed a refinance with Bay State Savings Bank and until the closing they seemed like exactly the bank I would like to work with. Small, local, and services many of their loans themselves. In fact I specifically asked about the likelihood of my loan being sold multiple times before and during the refinance process and was told repeatedly that although there is always a chance the loan would be sold they try to service as many as possible themselves and that my credit and loan were the type they tend to keep. I showed up at my closing to learn that my loan had been sold to a large national chain! I am in the process of seeing how quickly my credit union can turn around a refinance to see if there is any way I can cancel my Bay State Savings Bank refinance and still make deadlines for my renovation payments. This is very disappointing. While they never actually lied to me I consider their communication to have been quite deceptive. If the loan had been sold after a couple years I would feel differently but the sale occurring prior to closing with no communication ahead of time and after repeated assurances that while there was a chance that it would be sold it was unlikely screams bait and switch to me.
