Credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives owned and governed by their members, making them different from commercial businesses in their operation and their philosophy of placing members' needs first. This "member-first" approach translates into better rates on savings accounts and loans, lower fees and higher levels of service ( ... )

My parents were with a credit union for 15 years, but they got screwed over. I like our bank, Sterling.

I was considering USBank because their options were very good.
I was just wondering how their service was.
Thanks Luke!

credit unions are good for getting loans but usually I think you get better extras like online banking and useful ATM locations from a national bank. I have a credit union account and a bank account. With a credit union it is uncommonly easy to get a loan with low interest and they are flexible with payments and stuff, but they just don't have any ATMs I can use for free. Good luck Jaf, unless you've already found one.
