Wish I could give this FCU 0 stars. After years of being a patient and tolerant customer I am finally at my wits end. ************************* updated their online system and never once sent an email to me that bill pay would be unavailable. I call when I was unable to access bill pay on my phone/mobile login after new system was released and was told they had since an email about ******************* being down, i searched for an email but had NEVER recieved any notice. Today more than a week later I can not access ********... read more

This is strike 2 for us: The new digital banking has changed the status of our "joint" account to primary. They want to see the "original" POA (power of attorney), and will not change their new designation back to joint because this is the new norm in banking. We have reported our dissatisfaction to manager. According to staff, the reason why they have two designations (separate logins for spouses) is this is the "trend". We were told a husband brings his wife in and creates a joint account, and then the husband comes back t... read more

Business response:

Thank you for your questions regarding account structures at *********************************************. As a member-owned financial cooperative, accounts have always been structured with a primary member and a joint. This goes back to the origins of credit unions and the rights and privileges associated with membership. Regarding the home banking upgrade implemented last week; the upgrade in no way changed the ownership status of any account. With our previous home banking platform, each account had only one login usern... read more

I have had an account at Austin Telco since the 90’s. I only use it for renters deposits an hardly ever touch the money in that account. Another family member is joint on the account but doesn’t even know or remember. That family member also has their own account at Austin Telco, Cedar Park. On March 4 ,2021 that family member went to their account to withdraw funds. They had none. The teller told them that they have money in another account which they did not have the account number for. Gave them the account number and cha... read more

Any joint member on an account has the right to conduct transactions and to be informed of account information.

Never ever bank here. Pam C***** is atrocious. She made the discretionary choice to not release a deceased grandmother's funds using an affidavit of heirship showing the 2 kids as heirs after every other financial institution accepted this and over one million in assets were dealt with. This was a 15,000 account. We even sold her 1MM house with the affidavit. This caused the family to spend $2,000 to get the court to appoint one of the kids as executor then released the funds to the 2 heirs. Then she withdrew $475 dollars as... read more
