      This has happened within the last month. I lost my job and I'm also a realtor so money has been a problem. I ******** my account which I accept the fee, then it gets to be over $1000 and they just decline the transaction but still charge me the $32 fee. Over the past month, they have charged me ****************************** $1088 which is double what I was originally overdraft for, $500. Outrageous! How are you helping the problem! Now I'm negative $1588.

      They said they're refunding me the 34 overdraft fees.

      So they originally refunded me a few overdraft fees then when I deposited money they immediately put it on hold and have given me another 4 overdraft fees while money is pending in my account.

      Auto Loan financed with PMCU. I am co signer for daughter ****** *****************. Car deemed totaled on Feb 13, 2023. It took some time for insurance co, Esurance to solve our claim. I received a letter from PMCU that insurance of $1600 would be purchased on my behalf if I did this not show proof for dates of May 1, 2023 to current. I contacted PMCU on June 26, 2023 and was informed by **** ***** that all I needed was Letter of Guarantee with total loss date from Esurance. Letter was emailed from Esurance to PMCU on same day. I called PMCU next day June 27, 2023 to follow up. I spoke with rep ****** who confirmed Letter of Guarantee with total loss date of Feb 13, 2023 was received from Esurance. He also also informed me insurance amount of $1600 will no longer be needed(for May 1 to current) as the letter is showing total loss date of Feb 13. I checked my PMCU account June 29th and $1620 for insurance was added to my loan. I contacted PMCU who referred me to CPI, the insurance **** for PMCU. I spoke with ***** who advised me they would need documentation from loan **** and was referred back to PMCU loan **** I was transferred to supervisor named *******. ******* would not let me speak and kept insisting I was responsible for insurance and that he cant just take my word that my car was totaled. I tried to explain that Letter of Guarantee with total loss date should be on file. He disregarded my words and would not answer my questions. I called CPI **** again and spoke with ***** who reached out to loan ****. After being placed on hold, ***** informed me she was advised by loan ****. they are still waiting on my Letter of Guarantee. I continue to get conflicting info and run around. On June 27, 2023, when I spoke with representative ****** at PMCU he confirmed Letter of Guarantee was received from Esurance with total loss date of February 13,2023. He advised letter was showing on my account and that the letter was signed on their end and sent to Esurance.

      I noticed a hard inquiry from Premier Members Credit Union on my credit report and contacted the company about it as I did not authorize any inquiries. After several hours of phone calls I spoke with someone at Premier Members Credit Union and they informed me that they can pull my credit whenever they want do to a loan I signed over 7 years ago. I want this hard inquiry removed.

      I have routinely encountered situations with this credit where I am unable to use my card with no notification or advanced notice. This bank is regularly unwilling and unable to do what needs to be done to give me access to my money through my card. This afternoon (Saturday, February 4, 2023) I was trying to buy groceries and was ultimately unable to because of some problem with my card on the credit union's part. When I tried to contact them via their 24/7 phone support that is listed on their website, I was told that no one is available and to call back during normal business hours. I contacted the 800 number also listed on their website and was told that their system was down and to contact during normal business hours. It is Saturday afternoon and I am unable to access my money to pay for my groceries. I will have to call on Monday, and since I work overnights, that means I'll have to be awake at a time when I should be sleeping on a day that is not my day off because this credit union has locked me out of using my card. Additionally, I was just in a house fire last week and am needing to access my card more than normal. This credit union has given me no means with which to troubleshoot this issue, and like I said, this is something that has happened often before. I'd be happy to provide details of those instances as well. I travel often and have more than once been stranded because I couldn't access funds because of technical issues or other issues on PMCU's end.

      Had proof of insurance company fined us anyway did not notify ** . Increased are car payment did not notify us. Put our car in repossession did not notify us. We had to pay over $3000 to keep our car and bring our payments back to normal. Everytime we make a payment it takes weeks to update the payment. They refuse to send a copy of our contract. Worst financing company I have ever dealt with.

      I have tried to refinance my house with PMCU, initially I applied and provided all documents and statements that bank required, I was told and even signed a second application/disclosure and was told everything looked good. Couple weeks go by I dont hear anything from the bank and I contacted the mortgage banker last Tuesday that I was working with to ask how are things proceeding, he than told me he will let me know Thursday the latest by Friday, I did not hear from him so I just called him today (Monday the 9th) to find out of he knows anything, he told me than that underwriter has rejected my Loan do to decrease in my income, my income has increased over $7,000, seems like they didnt even take time to look at my income taxes. 5 weeks wasted, and higher interest in that time period. Totally unprofessional organization.

      I had a vehicle loan through Premier Members Credit Union that I paid in full July 2022. It is now November 2022 and I have yet to receive the title. There has been ZERO communication from Premier, I have had to reach out every single time in order to receive and update. I have called multiple times and have not received any sort of follow up. I wish I would have logged the amount of times and dates that I have called them but I had no idea that it would come to this. After not receiving the title after a month I called for an update and was told that the titles take 4-6 weeks to be sent out from the time that it is approved by the loan officer. I waited and still did not receive the title after 6 weeks. I called back and was told they were waiting on the state to release the title. I waited another 2 weeks and called back and was told the same thing. I purchased the vehicle in ******** but registered it in *******. I moved to ****** over a year ago and my parents kept the car to sell it, they wanted to change the plates and register it in ********, I was told by the ******** tag agency that they needed a copy of the title in order to do so. I requested this from Premiers. Then I called last week and was told that they are waiting on ******** to release the title, again they never once followed up with me and I had to call to get the information. I asked to speak to a manager to which I reached a voicemail and it is now the following week and I still haven't heard from them. I called today and was told that there was an update, that ******** needs me to come in to fix something on the title before releasing, never got a call from the manager. I finally was able to speak to a supervisor who is supposed to return my call, it's been 30 minutes and I still haven't heard back and not sure that I ever will. It's been FOUR months and I haven't received the title of the vehicle that I've been trying to sell. Not once did I receive a follow up call like I requested.

      I have an auto loan through PMCU, I have full coverage on my vehicle and always have. This information has been provided to them several times, their name added as the lean holder in fact, which again was provided to them. The kept sending letters stating they were going to add a $12,668 policy to our loan. Again they were sent the insurance information. They response to give them 72 hours to apply it to our account. This was not done and my husband was called letting him know they were adding this ridiculous amount of money to our loan balance. My husband again told them the vehicle has full insurance and their name has been added, yet the problem is not resolved and this unorganized organization is trying to add $12,688 to our loan balance. This has to be illegal. The vehicle is insured and has also been insured this is verifiable.

      I visited the Premier Members Credit Union bank office to open an account. After providing my drivers license and contact information from the teller, I sat down in the waiting area. I waited for ***************************************** their office on their computer. The other employee was with a customer and it looked like they were going to be a long time (i.e. more than 15 minutes more). Due to the wait of what seemed to be over 30 minutes, I left the bank office, and decided that I would apply for my business account online.I applied for a business account online ******************** Services LLC DBA *********************** I received a letter stating that my credit was an issue, and I was denied because I had a home mortgage. To be clear, I have an 830 FICO score which is 20 points below the BEST score possible. I have ZERO late payments. I pay off my credit card balances EVERY MONTH. I own a home so therefore I have a mortgage. I called the phone number on the letter that was sent to me, and the customer service person who answered acted as if they didn't know how to respond to my request. I explained to them that it is normal to have a mortgage, and that an 830 credit score is near perfect!I asked for someone to call me back and/or email me. I provided my email and phone number, and I have received zero response. I would like a review of my application and a response from Premier Members Credit Union by a human being. I would like an explanation on why my almost perfect credit score is insufficient, or why owning a home prevents an LLC owner from opening up a bank account.
