With major banks increasing loan rates and charging an arm and a leg for small services, it can sometimes feel as if your wallet is being constantly drained with no end in sight. Because of these reasons and many more, more and more consumers are flocking in droves to alternate financial institutions in the hopes of finding peace of mind in knowing that their money is in good hands.
Fortunately, credit unions are both a safe and more affordable option if you’re growing tired of dealing with a large banking institution. Credit unions typically offer better, more personalized member benefits in areas like loans and service fees.
