Rated 5 out of 5 by from Use for all purchases Great protection, no fees, 2% rebate, quick posting, easy to track purchases.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Very confusing Only allowed $6000.00 in external transfers on a rolling 30 days and every purchase is counted against that $6000.00. If you want to pay by check there isn't even a complete address on the statement or who the check should be made out to. Never had any problem with other banks transferring or paying my bill. I just keep telling myself this is a credit union not a bank and their software is outdated.
