Is RBFCU any good? Forbes rated thewm number one in TX, and there's a branch down the road.
Thank youNo issues. Wife and I have RBFCU.
You can use the ATMs at CVS or Walgreens without any fees for TDECU members.Smart Financial Credit Union here. They are decent, no real problems in the ~10 years I’ve been with them. I have a TDECU acct as well, and while they are a disappointment, I do still keep a min amt of $ there for PayPal purchases. My beef with TDECU stems from Covid shutdowns. The branch I bank with had the ATM located inside the bank. So, if I wanted cash without paying a fee, then I would need to go to a full service branch with a drive through which was like 15 miles away. I suppose Bucees would have been an option too but it’s a 20 minute drive from where I live
My wife and I need to break down and get a new banking institution. Currently our accounts are with our old credit union in the PNW, and with US Bank which does not have a presence anywhere near Houston. I've had accounts with Wells Fargo and Chase before, and aside from liking Chase's fraud department's proactivity - I don't feel a burning urge or desire to go back to banking with either of those institutions. I like smaller, local banks or credit unions more, as you also tend to get friendlier service.
We have a Prosperity Bank and Wood Forest bank close by in town, but I'm open to other suggestions if there are good alternatives.
Its getting annoying dealing with everything remotely - wife's employer doesn't offer direct deposit, so she gets a paper check every Friday. We can deposit it online with our old credit union, but sometimes it takes a while for deposits to show up. There's also the inability to conveniently access cash when necessary.
I have a credit card thru Capital One, but the closest Cap One Bank branch is in The Woodlands and is damn near a 40-45 minute drive away, depending on traffic. Something in Old Magnolia or Tomball would be ideal.
