Greenwood Credit Union Reviews ( 209 )

  1. *Update – they found the problem, and sent me a check for the dollar amount I had lost due to their fee.
    I just received my statement. They wiped out my account, the exact dollar I had in savings they charged as a fee.

  2. One of the worst!! Open an online acct and fund it then go turn in paperwork there they say sorry we can’t open this acct for you.ok where is my money i funded the acct with??? What a joke that place is

  3. Lucked out when my Cuzzzzz had to co-sign for a loan 😊And here I am ~~~ My loan is paid 👍 But I’m not going anywhere *** I love being greeted with a smile 😊 Problems have been solved / my silly question answered 🌠 Thank you …

  4. Absolutely digusting costumer service hung up on and left on hold for an hour when u live a state away you would think they would help ……never come her staff is terrible

  5. Absolutely terrible !!! Trying to pay my loan off and can’t speak to a person ! You can’t change the payment amount on line and no one will call you back ! I guess they don’t want their money !!!

  6. They have saved me from so much grief! After being dragged around for months by Santander they saved the day and helped me solve a heloc issue within a few weeks. Thanks!!!

  7. Yesterday I called GCU and placed on hold and after about 15 minutes when no one had picked up my call, only then, I requested for a call back through the automated voice, and still I have not received that call back

  8. This credit union is a disgrace to all credit unions. I will never do business or recommend anyone to do business with them. They don’t care about customers like a typical credit union. STAY AWAY!!!!!

  9. Financed my commercial truck loan with them! they were courteous and always helpful for any issues that may have risen being my fault or theirs and always took care the problems, promptly.

  10. Terrible customer service,
    Trying to get to a human that actually works in the bank is an aventure.
    The call center people have no authority to help or do anything, do you business somewhere else.

  11. they never send anything by mail and it leaves you uninformed and at the end of my loan finished they decided to keep the overpay balance because I had co signed for someone else ,awful customer service ;please never deal with those disgrace, thieves 😡 …

  12. Fantastic service. Samantha was so professional and easy to work with. Really took the time to make sure I understood everything about my loan and answer any questions I had.

  13. Phone app access to my CD account provides just one month of interest and no more. This bank is so below par with other Credit Unions. I only opened the CD account for it’s one time high interest rate. I wouldn’t bank here.

  14. The services rendered by the Greenwood credit union staff are extremely poor. There are many other credit unions and banks. Don’t go to Greenwood, it’s not worth being treated without respect.

  15. This place is every bit as bad as any of the bad reviews. The customer service is horrendous, and they’re about 10 years behind in technology. I basically was tricked into using them for an auto loan. Never again. …

  16. Horrible CU, I’ll rank BofA, First Citizens, TD Bank and Webster as all vastly superior to Greenwood. Bad customer service, bad systems, gimmicky small print scams are all you’ll find at greenwood cu.

  17. People are great but their drive up ATM is the worst ever……

    In response to your response, if you used the ATM regularly you wouldn’t ask …

  18. They make it almost impossible to pay off a car loan, terrible. I’m on the phone right now and 10 minutes have gone by. They are the most difficult people to give money to.

  19. I recently got a new summer job and went to open a checking account with a debit card. The employee, Siran, was so sweet and explained how everything works thoroughly since it was my first time opening an account!

  20. Just such awful customer service. I spent a month trying to get a loan and provided them with everything they needed only to find out that I wasted my time. And don’t bother calling, even if you know your party’s extension they won’t pick up. I would give zero stars if I could.

  21. I drove down to the bank to payoff a lial. I wass coming from an hour away in MA, on Monday 8-13-18. I arrive at 1pm to find the place locked up and not a soul around. No sign on the door no message on the website, was supposed to be open 9-4. Still can’t get anyone to answer the phone. What gives?

  22. I never leave reviews but the amount of bad experiences I’ve had I needed to add to the dozens of other bad reviews. Website hardly works and is extremely basic, phone service always brings me to an answering machine and when I do get …

  23. I have called three times and faxed a request over for my car payment coupon book. Three months later and I have still not received it. I am sure if I didn’t pay my car payment that I would get something from them right away. Customer service is horrible.

  24. All of the employees my husband and I have worked with have been professional, friendly and extremely helpful. Dawn Leduc recently helped us and she went out of her way to make the process quick and easy! Thank you Dawn.

  25. TERRIBLY DYSFUNCTIONAL WEBSITE! I JUST needed to SIMPLY login to see how much interest I’ve paid (for tax purposes) and they keep changing their CHEAPLY BUILT website’s log-in page. I have WRITTEN down EVERY TIME this stupid company forced …

  26. Very poor customer service. Car loans cannot be paid on line and they want to charge a fee to do it over the phone. You would think a lender would want to make it easy to make a payment.

  27. Worst online/phone experience I’ve literally ever had. Every month trying to pay my loan is an incredible headache the website is garbage and never works then trying to get ahold of a human is almost as difficult once you finally do you get …

  28. Just refinanced my auto loan through gcu and it was very easy and straight forward. They cut my % in more than half. And cheaper monthly payments.

  29. Coming from a past of big banks until very recently, I have found my Greenwood experience very pleasant, customer focused (not just ‘check the block” bank focused) which is nice. Nice people easy to do business with.

  30. I’ve been trying for the past 4 days to make first payment on the loan I have through Greenwood. I can’t login online, the website can’t even find my account number. I’m beyond aggravated and I couldn’t get ahold of someone yesterday. Just trying to pay off what I owe…. didn’t know it would be such a struggle to make payments.

  31. I worked with Dawn Leduc over the last week on a heating loan, she was fantastic! Answered all of my questions and we got everything done in just a few short days. Over all a great experience.

  32. Dawn Leduc was excellent to work with, very knowledgeable, friendly. The service at this bank is impressive. I got a lot accomplished in just my lunch break! Thanks Greenwood cu

  33. Trying to secure a home equity loan. This is the second time trying with the institution that I’ve been with for years. Last year I was told to increase my income, so I did another 90% more than asked. You think that worked, he’ll no. Their …

  34. I have a lot of respect for this bank i had a shady car dealership get me a loan thru them. i noticed the dealership made the loan more then i agreed to and the loan dept helped me in big way with information. I got a new loan with great rate and payments thanks Greenwood

  35. Samantha made my experience very pleasant! She was very friendly and knowledgeable! I would highly recommend Greenwood Credit Union for your banking needs. Thank you Samantha!

  36. I was very interested in opening an online CD account with Greenwood credit union, until I read all this horrible customer service reviews and complaints. I am from Florida how are they going to answer all my questions if they don’t pick up …

  37. Worst bank I’ve ever dealt with, asked to refinance my vehicle and was told they would get back to me, that was 3 months ago, still no call. Intrest rates are crazy high, and customer service is ok less then half the time. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS BANK, it’s got a poor rating for a reason!!!

  38. I paid both of my loans off with them and they did not send me my titles out in the mail for 2 weeks? I told them I should charge them a late fee, its ridiculous that they do not care about sending titles to people that officially own the cars and them holding the titles hostage.

  39. This place is a nightmare for loans. I’ve spoken to three people, who all give you different information.. and no one honors what you’ve been told. I need to refinance and get my loan far away from this bank

  40. The service was awesome! Samantha Potter my Loan Officer was great, she outline the process and made my experience a breeze form start to finish. I would recommend Greenwood CU to everyone.

  41. Have been with Greenwood for close to 40 years. Wouldn’t leave them. There workers are outstanding! Just had a problem with an airline ticket and 2 of their workers went above and beyond to fight for my money back.

  42. I had a car loan with the credit union and was making monthly payments with my credit card without problem (my credit card payments in the past were never a cash advance). I saved some money and decided to payoff my loan balance and went to …

  43. Have been a member of GCU since they gave me a loan for a car when no one else would. When I lost my job they were more than willing to work with me and they were a great help. They were so great, I even went back to them for another car loan after my old car died. Thank you!

  44. If Feb 2018 I secured a auto loan. My payments are 347$ a month. As of 9 /5/ 2018 I have made over 3600$ in payments. But I have been charged a 17.00 late. I tryed to call them to discuss this. Unable to contact them. I do not recommend doing any business with them.

  45. I wish ZERO stars was an option, because that’s what I would give. I have an atv loan through Greenwood. I recently had an accident, and some damage was done to my bike. I have insurance through Progressive. My insurance cut me a check for …

  46. I’ve had my business account here for 4yrs.. Saved $1200 vs my old bank’s business checking fees in that time. We’ve also had 2 auto loans here, very easy to work with.

  47. The worst customer loan department!! WE have a business car loan through these guys and they are rude, uncooperative, and hung up on us twice over the phone when inquiring about our loan payoff amount when we asked them to hold a minute …

  48. The short review: Their only reliable payment option costs an additional $10, and their phone and online support are so bad, it almost discourages paying. …

  49. Joslyn made a difficult account opening very easy. She set up docu-sign for those who couldn’t get in to the bank. She followed up on things and was a pleasure to work with.

  50. The Greenwood Credit Union is an important part of our community. As a member, I appreciate the good work they do. As the head of the St. Greg’s Baseball League, I am grateful for their support in sponsoring a team. Thanks to GCU and your wonderful team!

  54. I love GCU! I have been a member since the early 80’s. And now live in NH and can still do my banking from here. And get very Great Service. I can take pictures of my checks and send them via text and get them cashed.

    Thank you, Samantha!!

  57. Horrible customer service. The people in the loan department can’t even answer basic questions. Simply do what the computer tells them do to. I spoke to several different people over the course of three days and there was no consistency at …

  58. I had an auto loan through Greenwood Credit Union which I always paid more money each month on time making me 2 months ahead on the final months payoff. In November of 2012 I was laid off from work and put on unemployment so I called …

I look forward to doing business with Greenwood in the very near future. Ashley Sampaio

  60. I have been trying for two months to open an new account as my past wife has died in another state. Her name is on the account, and I can not get a death certificate. There is always another step to open an account and get the money switched into a new account.

  61. Was the only place that would accept a loan from me. To set up payment i had to call multiple times. I was also told that automatic withdrawal would be set up. It was supposed to be withdrawled a week ago from today. Ive been trying to get …

  62. Dawn Leduc, loan officer, was exceptionally personable and knowledgeable. She made it a comfortable process. There’s absolutely no substitute for experience.

  63. I strongly advise against doing business with them. My father had a loan with them, which he was having difficulty paying (he was behind a couple months). He passed away two weeks ago, and we have been trying to get his estate sorted and …

  64. My aunt has a car loan which she has called to get me put on before. I walk out to go home(Warwick, RI) today from work( north Smithfield, RI) and my car is not in the parking lot. Tried frantically to get in touch with my aunt and GCU, to …

  65. I am a long time customer of Greenwood Credit Union and can say with certainty I will never go through them for any personal banking or loans. In an economy like this, you might *hope* that a smaller credit union would work with their …

  67. I made a late payment due to financial difficulties. I explained my current situation and was able to work it out with GCU. I have had my auto loan with them for more than 3 years and have never had an issue. Jason was understanding and helped me out.

  68. Unacceptable. Online banking is a joke. Plus you never receive statements or balances for any loans without calling. Not user friendly, no access to how much is remaining. They’re probably pilfering money so they don’t give balances or …

  69. I’m been a member for many years. I find the tellers are polite and helpful. The limited telephone banking suits my purpose, however
    Mobile banking not their strong suit. I was shocked by the webpage’s lack of …

  70. absolutely awful experiences with my loan. The website lacks any information on my account besides my previous payments. There is no total of what I have paid or how much I still owe on the loan. When I call customer service it takes at …

  71. This is the worst credit union I have ever dealt with and I usually love credit unions! To make a payment online is the most backwards, complicated, process I have ever dealt with! I have to make two transfers just to pay my auto loan! Why …

  72. I had a great experience getting my car loan through GCU. Samantha made the process easy and answered all my questions, she made the whole experience wonderful. If I ever need any other loans I will definitely be back to see her!

  73. Im about ready to start a petition for a new drive up ATM. Its broken or as they say “down for maintenance” more than it works. Not to mention not user friendly. Greenwood should call Navigant and ask where they get there ATM’s from. Since …

  74. Best tellers around. I don’t use online banking or the website just go in the old fashioned way to do my banking no direct deposit. Never had a problem with a mortgage from them either. Friendliest staff always helpful and have a smile on …

  75. On August 24th I had my credit pulled once, unfortunately, the bank pulled it twice. It now appears on my credit as a “hard pull” two times. I have made 7 to 10 calls into the bank. I consistently have had to leave messages on voice mail. …

  76. There are not enough words to express the gratitude and admiration I have for the folks at Greenwood Credit Union and the level of professionalism they bring to every client interaction. I am a Rhode Island transplant that came here in …

  77. My experience has been awful. I received a car loan at a great rate through them, but that’s where all the smiles stopped. I wish I could give it 0 starts. The bank seems to have put up every barrier there is to be able to 1) know how …

  81. I have been banking with Greenwood since I opened my first account for my first job. I have since moved to Florida and I still use them! Their available services and accounts make it an easy choice. With all of the online banking options I never have a problem! I would highly recommend GCU for any banking needs.

  82. Honestly the longest and least accommodating loan process I have ever been through. It took over 2.5 weeks to get this loan completed. My loan officer was impossible to connect with over the phone and less than helpful with questions …

  83. Believe the reviews. This place is a joke. The online system is terrible, the automated phone system is incredibly inefficient. I just called to payoff my loan to not have to deal with them. The automated system wasn’t letting me do that so …

  84. Samantha could not have done a better job processing my loan! She was friendly, thorough, helpful, efficient, informative, knowledgeable, personable, upbeat, and highly competent! …

  89. Do NOT do any business with this company. I purchased a car through a dealer, financed through this company. Not realizing what I was getting myself into, they had a low interest rate so I went with them. I have been trying to set up …

  90. As others have said, if you have a loan with them they don’t show the balance on the online account and they don’t send you statements for the account. I have never seen anything like it before. I sent an email to them to get up to date …

  98. Terrible Service. The only way to see you loan balance is to call them and the majority of the time the call will drop for no reason before you can get to someone. Their “Pay” system says that you should enroll for Online Banking to see you …

  99. As others have said, can’t see outstanding loan balance online. According the the person I spoke to at the bank, you can see your balance if you have an account with them. In 2019 to have such an outdated and inadequate system is …

  100. This Credit union is a joke. Not only did they take repossession of my car during the pandemic after two missed months but alongside their short business hours and long lunch breaks, their automated telephone banking is tedious and the is …

  103. I have been a customer of GCU for over 30 years! I love that they recognize me as an individual when I go in, not just another account holder. They know who my husband and children are and make my experience a personal one each time. …

  105. I feel like I’m losing my mind when I speak to this bank. I’ve been with my primary credit union since 1999. They messed up, kept sending car payments even though I refinanced my loan and halted auto payments to Greenwood on the initial …

  106. Customer service should do more to help customers get information in a timely manner. I call asking for info on my husband’s account and they refuse to talk to me unless my husband gives the Ok. You would think they would just kindly …

  107. I have always had excellent service from the Credit Union. My Mom is ill and I can’t say enough about the help I’ve been getting from Joslyn Clemm in adding me to the account to balancing the checkbook to answering any questions I may have. She has made the process so smooth and less stress for me.

  108. They helped my business get a PPE loan when my bank was too busy to help, and they continued to help when it was time to file the followup paperwork. Everyone on the team has been wonderful to work with throughout the process. I will be …

  113. Had a great experience with my car loan with Greenwood Credit Union. Every call with Greenwood was handled in a professional manner and the final payoff and closing of the savings account was incredibly easy. All calls were immediately …

  114. Do NOT refinance car loans with this place. Thanks a lot credit karma for including this god awful company in your suggestions. Definitely not worth it.

  115. 2 stars only because I like the idea. But the rest of the processes with this entity has been unacceptable for a bank or a credit union. It’s a shame and completely unprofessional.

  116. You pay, you pay double payments, you get in a bind…do call your not-so-friendly greenwood. Don’t get me wrong some people that work in the bank are super nice, but the employees with an office or the ones that say yay or nay…are not understanding give you a little break people kind people.

  117. I love Greenwood C.U. best bank in R.I. The people are excellent.Tellers, Loan Officers everyone. The credit card rates are the absolute best anywhere. 9.90 fixed( and 14.90). Best anywhere. I have had auto loans,savings, and credit with …

  120. I recently switched my savings and checking accounts to greenwood and have been so impressed with the personal and thoughtful service I received. I have many questions and the member service reps have been outstanding and patient. It is one of my best decisions and I love that they have a positive presence in our community

  121. Kept billing me and hit my credit score after I had paid off the vehicle loan, and now took $10 out of the savings account I had to open for the loan for an inactivity fee. So open a savings account there to leave money in and they will …

  122. Adelina in the title department was extremely helpful when I needed to change the title of my car and obtain it to register it in a different state. She was compassionate and sympathetic as the change was due to a death. I appreciated her help as she made a complex situation smooth and provided me guidance on the process. Thank you!

  123. Auto loan since December 2019. Auto billing issue since start of loan. I signed in and set up automatic payment but it did not go through until January. GCU says I’m late so they charge a late fee. Why would I go online and set up billing …
