If I could leave no stars I would. They are the worst EVER to have an auto loan. I cannot wait to refinance with a different company. My first payment was due during the months of when the Covid-19 pandemic started. At that point they did away with the $8 fee every time you make a payment via debit card or ach. I never once missed a payment. Just a couple months ago they resumed back to the $8 fee every payment you make. If you do the math, let’s say for a five year loan and you pay once a month. That is almost $500 in addit... read more

Stay away from trying to refinance a mortgage with this company. They will make it look easy online and offer low rates, however, they will have you send all paperwork needed and have you pay for an appraisal to be done ASAP to then ignore your calls and emails. I started the process 30+ days ago with no progress. They will blame delays on third party. I spoke with customer support who directed me to a lead. She told me they are overwhelmed with work and to expect to pay additional fees for not closing on time which regardle... read more

For a year now me and my mom have been paying every month on time, then last month, the agent who collected the payment collected short of .75 cents, then we get a letter of not paying the loan and that they will report it to the credit bureau. We went to their office and explained but they didn’t seem to care, they made us pay the .75 cents and said they would not charge a late fee when it’s their fault for not collecting the right amount!

Refused my loan payment thru the drive thru made me go inside to make a payment... not smart during covid times and social distancing.

I have a RV loan through them because they were recommended by the RV dealership (probably lowest bidder). I have never been late on a payment for anything in my life but I received two letters from them saying I was past due and that creditors would be notified. I was mortified. They didn't call me, email me, or anything. Just a letter saying that I was delinquent. I called, waited for half an hour to talk to someone, and found out both times that even though I had set up autopayments, the money was going into a savings acc... read more

**Honest Review** I usually had good experience with AFCU when I was up on my luck. But during a global pandemic AFCU really let me down. I applied for a personal loan for $2,150. Just enough to cover two medical expenses as a result of an unforeseen illness during a really trying time. I was denied with the only explanation being that I didn't have the income to cover the loan. I have never missed a payment on my Auto loan with AFCU. My net income monthly is $3,000. My debt to income ratio is $3,000-(all expenses) which tot... read more

I feel very disappointed at the way I’ve been treated since I filed for bankruptcy Ch7. I was notified that my account was going to be terminated because I was a “financial loss” to the CU, those were the BK “supervisor” words that assisted me. Funny thing is that I never defaulted on my credit card with them not even once before or after filing. There was no empathy at all and felt humiliated after the fact I explained to her that I never saw BK as an easy way out, but after my cancer diagnosis and been out of work I was le... read more

Due to COVID-19, insurance company offices were closed. Getting insurance on the trailer we were financing through America First took longer than expected. They charged us over $225 to cover the period of time during which we were trying to get coverage. I was told by 2 reps that this would be waved. The insurance department said the loan department could wave the fee due to COVID-19. H******** in the loan department said we would be credit the money as indicated by what she saw on the computer. I was then told that the reps... read more
