      unable to log on this morning. Had tp "validate" my info with a 6 digit number sent ot my email of record . I was unable to do this so I went to the *************** office special to fix. After setting down and showing ID the clerk said I was OK. I came home and nothing had changed. I tried to call and was told a 5 minute wait and selected "call me back". It was ***** minutes and nothing.I will have a check or two bouncing Monday if I can't transfer funds. Apparently they don't care.

      Apparently they are still learning how to use a calculator.Awful experience in obtaining a home equity loan for a pool project. Did not meet the *** requirements by 9%. Subsequently received a 13% salary increase and was still denied because the new loan amount had to be included in the *** calculation. Well if that was the case, the original *** calculation was performed incorrectly to begin with! This poor guidance and lack of competency resulted in over a month of construction delays.

      Just opened two accounts and will close both. This has been the worst financial institution process im my 70+ years, enen worse than 1AZ..1- Rude staff, upon first [required] visit to open the accounts. Walked out.2- Ignorant clerk at a different branch was barely capable of following the screen's directions.]3- Unable to get basic information, like account numbers and member number w/o going to branch; call to their central number was a waste of time.I want a bank that supports and aets the people they SERVE, not citing excuse afrter excuse of why they CANNOT,Their actions prove a lack or respect for and support of members, currenet and prospective.

      My car payment is paid ahead my 1 year. I still throw payments to it randomly because, well I don't like owing debt. I paid $500 just the other day on 5.13.2023. So today 3-24-2023 i get a letter dated 3-20-2023 stating that, they will be moving my next bill to be due 4-3-2023. So they want me to pay another payment in 10 days, even though not only am i paid ahead by a year, but i just send another payment twice as much as my standard due payment. for so many people in this economy, this would be a CRUSHING notification. You should be ashamed,

      I've banked with Credit Union West for almost 8 years now. Today i went to an ATM at a different bank. Which they charged me a fee, already knew that was coming. Then i saw Credit Union West also charged me a fee. I called and asked about it. They charged me a 2$ fee because I didn't use there ATM. I will no longer be banking with them.

      Terrible card system. Accidentally locked my card by using the wrong pin too many times, which I take accountability for. When trying to resolve this, no one could help me when I called in, saying my card was marked as stolen, transferred me to the fraud department, and the automated system said they could not find a fraud case and gave me no option to talk to someone. All this after waiting for 30 minutes on hold twice. Huge waste of time. I'll be closing my account as soon as I get my debit card from my new bank.

      This bank is horrible. I signed up for a checking account a few months ago. I still have yet to receive any sort of welcome letter from the bank containing my banking information and debit card. I continue to ask for assistance on this matter and I keep getting told the info is on its way and will be there in no more than 72 hours. So finally I get fed up and asked to close my savings and checking account. These low life's have the audacity to try and charge me to close my account, even though I'm choosing not to do business due to their horrible customer service. I'm glad I did not switch both of my direct deposits and SSI check to this bank. Had I done so I wouldn't have any access to my money and could not pay my bill. Please heed my warnings this bank will put you in a very horrible position. I know now why this bank has a two star rating. This is a bottom feeder. They will do something incorrectly on purpose to collect fees from you. Credit unions are suppose to be better than the big banks, but this bank is even more crooked, deceptive and unscrupulous than they are. Save yourself the headaches. All of the other reviews back up my claim. Steer clear

      Two decades of credit destroyed. My 780 credit score ruined. I lost 121 points because I started a new loan with them and never received a proper bill the first month. I payed it one month late alont with that next month at the same time (again a new account) went right on my credit score. Are you trying to ruin my life!?

      We have been members of CU West since ****. They were good to do business with until the last few years. On June 25th we reported an unknown charge on my husbands credit/ debit card. Which of course meant the card was cancelled. We leave for the summer and were advised since we didnt change our address with them we would have to wait 30 days to order a new card. We are paperless but did do a temporary change of address with the US *************** They said that was not acceptable.It is now August 10th and he still has not received the replacement. **************** did say the card did not come from them which has caused him to have to use interest charging cards in the meantime instead of our own money.Im sure we are not the only seniors who travel in the summer. This is a terrible policy and inconvenience when we can verify our identity and provide a postal service temporary change of address. We had a *********** card compromised and they Fed Exed it to us in 2 days. When we return home we will be moving our business.

      The number provided to call was the general CU number telling me this is a canned response. Essentially, there is no resolution to our issue. Just know when you travel you will be at risk of not being able to get a card replacement in any timely way so have a backup plan. Very disappointed.
