GECU no longer provides good customer service, it was once a bank with great service. BUT lately there is no more personal touch to customer service. I could not talk to a real person. It was a simple question related to my debit card. No, I did not want to cancel it but simple enough question. I had to drive to a branch and walk in and ask. It took 30 seconds to answer. I had tried call from late morning to early afternoon but after trying multiple times during the day. When asking to open an account for my son, I was told ... read more

It is unfortunate to see how this credit union has taken a dive in regards to consistency and service. You would think that employees are trained on the policies to at least provide a uniformed level of service. I've been with them for over 35 years. I've recently had to reach out to them for personal financial reasons. Each associate I've talked with has provided a totally different response. Today I had to go directly with a Supervisor in order to resolve my issue. To say that an associate thanked me for teaching him somet... read more

In April 2023 I traded in my Dodge journey for a 2017 ****** 4Runner at right drive. When I signed for the 4Runner it was advised to me that there was negative equity from the journey that was going to be added on to the new loan. Which I clearly understood and was ok with because I really wanted the vehicle at the time and I was also told that GECU was approving me at a lower interest rate but the issues im having now with this vehicle started as soon as I started making the payments in July 2023. For the first few months A... read more
