  1. Great customer service I called with an issue and they were able to resolve it in no time. I’ve been banking with them for a while now and never had any problems.. keep it up guys

  2. Where banking experience of my life! We have accounts at multiple credit unions and banks and the customer service and the app is the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life

  3. I would really like to thank Dyral for all of the help he gave me trying to change my online password. I was caught in a loop of frustration. He was so patient, friendly and kind. We even laughed together. He is one special young man.

  4. Signed in on sign in sheet yet she’s getting up from her desk just skipping me helping everybody else in line telling me to wait makes no sense what’s the point of signing in to get help

  5. Excellent service, had to go there yesterday as my credit union does not have a local branch. I needed to withdraw money from my account and all they asked me for was my member number and photo identification

  6. I don’t know why but anything i try doing through UCU never goes smooth.. I really needed to get a hold of someone at the branch and I called around 4:30ish because the hours online said the branch was open today until 5… I was on hold for over 30 min and never got to speak with anyone.

  7. They provide good upfront service and are open on Saturdays. However, they cannot withdraw money from your original bank that’s co-oped with University CU on Saturday due to lack of a ‘branch link’ to your original bank.

  8. Called in. “Mary” didn’t know if the CU was a “shared branch” and didn’t know the terms I used to define the network of shared branches, but did feel free to tell me that I could withdraw, deposit, and other functions if it was! Oh, but I’d …

  9. I gratefully appreciate that this credit union offers shared branching!! I moved here from Alaska, and this is the only bank in my area that is shared with AlaskaUSA FCU. …

  10. I have been a member here for over seven years and today has to be the last straw for me in terms of their mobile apps check deposits and the department that handles this service. To be told that they only look at the deposits 3 times a day …

  11. I’ve been a member of the University Credit Union since 1981, yes that’s almost 35 years, and I’ve been very pleased with them. I moved to the Bay Area in 1998 and continue to use UCU for my banking needs. Great customer service — very responsive to its customers!!

  12. I have banked here for almost six years now, and I am very satisfied with the bank’s customer service, the availability of affiliated ATMs, and overall their willingness to help me manage my money wisely. The nice thing about a credit union …

  13. Very good service. Mysha is one of the Bank representatives, and she couldn’t have been more congenial and helpful. Lex was also very pleasant. Overall, a very good experience. 😊 …

  14. UCU demonstrates everything that’s not great about credit unions – total lack of convenience, etc. In addition, this particular one has terrible customer service and if you end up getting an account with them, they will harass you to no end …

  15. I have been at this credit union for over 20 years. They are terrific! We have purchased cars through them, bought our house, refinanced and use their MasterCard. The customer service is the best there is. It is so wonderful to work with …

  16. Don’t even try to get a credit card unless you want to spend endless effort at UCU getting it right: filled out form to take money from an account at another bank to pay monthly statement in full for online banking. Several months didn’t …

  17. They just upgraded their system but I think they forgot to upgrade their ATM. Still running on some old school processor! I’m gonna get robbed for how slow their ATM processes anything. And no mirrors on the ATM too so you cannot see who’s …

  18. Applied for an auto loan and you would think UCU would make at least some effort when a potential new client comes their way. But no – I received no information, no contact, nothing from them until I finally called their office and was told …

  19. Worst experience with the Auto loan. I initially reached out to this Credit Union because they were supposed to help first time buyers (and graduates from UCs) like me to have an easier experience for their purchase. But it was the worst …

  20. I received an email that I was pre-approved for a new/used auto financing/refinancing loan with a low APR. I was in the car market and told the dealership about it and they said they didn’t work with this credit union, and I am happy the …

  21. I had An Auto Transaction With. Diana in their Office in Sepulveda, She was very Professional and Patient
    Everything went well, I purchased an Extended Warranty and paper works and …

  22. I switched from a major bank chain thinking I would be treated with respect. I’ve been with UCU for over 3 years. My account has been hit with multiple overdraft fees without being able to access my account to transfer money because of your …

  23. Impossible to get through to a branch, customer service had no phone numbers for branches, and also couldn’t get a manager on the phone with me. Unbelievable, unacceptable. Never, ever, ever do business with this place!

  24. Expected a bit more from a credit union. Walked in to find the reception desk empty and the restroom was worse than a gas station. Two tellers on a Monday and the coffee dispenser in the lobby was empty. Overall a really bad experience …

  25. I’ve been with UCU for 12 years and I am closing my account. Today, I went into the Sepulveda office to get copies of some cancelled checks that were unavailable through the online system. A woman named Myshia had me sit at her desk and …

  26. Go elsewhere if you need an auto loan and want your registration title at maturity! I paid off my car loan on 4/1/21 and I’m still waiting for my title. I called again Monday and was promised a resolution by Wednesday. The agent was rude …

  27. I’ve been with UCU for over 20 years. Up till recently I’ve had the best experience with them. I’ve always had good service and had been able to get in contact with a teller via telephone with ease. Because I have covid I can not go into …
