After 40 years of loyal service o have up..they become increasingly terrible with their service...it got so bad I changed banks..afteru
Last experience I'm the bank I realised thier care factor is zero! Their service is not good enough or acceptable. Shame on you BCU I have become the worst bank out there.
Not impressed with BCU - dishonest
Not impressed with BCU. I went into a branch to open an account - they informed me that I would get a $100 Bonus with direct deposit set up. I hadn’t received after 2 months. Stopped in and EN informed me that I had to reach $1000. I have reached the $1000 in direct deposits and now they will not honor it. I reached out via email no response. I called the customer service number and they will not honor a promotion. I will never use this credit union again and will be closing out my account promptly on Monday morning. I have not had one good experience with them and frankly I will put my money in a credit union that has higher ethics and morals and stands by what they say. Terrible customer service and dishonest.
Denied Loan, Frozen Checking Account, and Zero Communication
Opened a checking account with BCU, set up direct deposit, then attempted to apply for an auto loan through them.
Loan was denied. Fine. That happens.
What happened next was absolutely unacceptable.
Immediately after the denial, my existing checking account was suddenly restricted and I lost access to my online banking and deposited funds. No proactive notification. No fraud alert call. No secure message. Nothing.
I had to spend over an hour of my day sitting on hold just to figure out why I couldn’t access my own account.
Then I was told I needed to resend my ID, Social Security documentation, utility bill, pay information, marriage certificate, and prior identification through EMAIL to “verify eligibility” for an account I had already opened and successfully funded with direct deposit.
Even more concerning, I was told the auto loan inquiry would be a soft pull, yet a hard inquiry appeared on my credit report.
The issue is not that the loan was denied. The issue is the complete lack of communication, the restriction of access to an already-established checking account, and the expectation that sensitive personal documents be transmitted through unsecured email just to regain access to my own money.
Fraud prevention is understandable. Poor communication, unnecessary account restrictions, and handling sensitive information this way are not.
Extremely disappointing experience, especially from a credit union affiliated with my employer.
Do not open an account with this bank
Do not open an account with this bank, they are terrible! Do not, I repeat, DO NOT bank here, they do not care about you or your well being. I have been with them for 10 years and I have problems with them every single time I call. I have property in Mexico and travel often. Over the last three years I have needed to replace my debit card 3-4 sperate times due to my account being compromised, BCU representatives gave me no options other than standard shipping. They do not offer Overnight services for anything and when you deposit a check, they will hold your check deposits for 21 days with no reason because by law they don't have to give you one. They will not help you when your in an emergency either! I am currently stranded in Sinaloa, MX with a boken down truck and they will not release my check funds to me to get my truck out of the shop and get back to Mexico. They are holding my money until 5/5/26 because they listed the check fraudulent. This check came from my mom. I called them the day I was going to deposit it to let them know it was going to be deposited and I needed the funds immediately and I sent them 2 months worth of bank statements, multiple screen shots, and I even had my moms bank write a letter with the check transaction, copy of the check. I sent them everything that they requested. Every time I called, they wanted something different and each time I sent it they still said they were goin got hold my check even though its not fraudulent. This is the story they are sticking to over a check from my mom which also has the exact same address on it that is on my banking account at BCU. Needless to say, I am ending my business with this bank and going to another credit union.
Deceptive marketing
Deceptive marketing. They will constantly change their terms on you to make sure you're not eligible for the promos they have listed.
Rather than own up to their mistake, they decide to take it out on the customers.
Very poor customer service
Very poor customer service. They will lure you to be member by opening promo with wearied rules. Online application will tell you that promo is successfully applied and than later they will not respect their own website accepted promotion. Stay far away to protect your hard earned money.

Resposta da BCU
They do not support their members
I’m extremely disappointed with my experience with BCU Credit Union. I filed a dispute regarding a charge tied to a hotel stay that had serious issues, including concerns about mold that were publicly documented. Despite providing context and trying to explain the situation thoroughly, my claim was denied with little to no meaningful support.
What makes this even more frustrating is that I’ve seen how other financial institutions handle situations like this with care, advocacy, and a genuine effort to protect their members. In my experience, another bank I’ve worked with in the past took the time to investigate thoroughly, communicate clearly, and actually support me through a dispute process. That level of service makes a huge difference, especially as a military spouse who deals with frequent moves and relies on financial institutions to act in good faith.
Unfortunately, I did not feel that same level of support from BCU. The process felt dismissive, and the outcome did not reflect a customer-first approach. Based on this experience, I have closed my account and taking my business elsewhere.
I truly hope BCU reevaluates how they handle member disputes in the future.
Exceptional Service from Jennifer at BCU
Jennifer provided outstanding support with my auto loan at BCU. She handled everything efficiently—from taking my loan on March 20 to having the payoff check sent by March 25—allowing my plan to work perfectly with two months free of payments.
I can be a bit challenging with my questions, but Jennifer was patient, professional, and thorough every step of the way. I truly appreciate her dedication and would highly recommend her to anyone needing expert, attentive service. You have to get the right team member that cares. If dealing with BCU automobile loans, ask for Jennifer. 👍
Terrible checking account
Terrible checking account. Almost all my online purchases are flagged for fraud and then never go through. You have to call in to do anything with your account and the technology is terrible on the banking account

I've banked with credit unions for over…
I've banked with credit unions for over 35 years and Baxter Credit Union is the polar opposite of what I expected. Credit Unions make their members feel like they are appreciated and tend to offer a more personal banking experience. BCU credit union is nothing like what I expected.
Terrible Credit Union BAIT AND SWITCH
BCU pulled a classic bait-and-switch on my mortgage one day before closing. After weeks of proceeding under one ARM structure and rate, they changed the loan to a different ARM product at a higher rate, when I was already effectively locked in and out of alternatives. That alone destroyed any trust.
I paid the loan off quickly just to be done with them—only to discover they assessed a late fee on a ONE-CENT balance. Yes, $0.01. To make it worse, their website is so poorly designed that it was not even possible to pay that balance online, which is how the “late” fee was triggered in the first place.
Customer service is an absolute nightmare:
Endless automated menus
No clear escalation path
No ownership or accountability
You burn time just trying to talk to a human who can actually fix something
This was not a one-off inconvenience—it was a pattern of poor systems, poor communication, and zero customer empathy.
Between the last-minute loan change, nickel-and-diming over a penny, and unusable digital tools, BCU demonstrated that they are not equipped to handle mortgages professionally. I would strongly advise anyone considering a home loan to look elsewhere unless you enjoy surprises at closing and fighting automated phone trees over trivial balances.
Baxters Credit Union (BCU) is one of the best in the banking industry.
As a long-standing member of the organization for over two decades, I have engaged in numerous business transactions with them, ranging from onboarding new members to utilizing online banking and in-person services. Throughout my interactions, I have encountered no negative experiences. Each representative has demonstrated genuine concern for my needs and provided prompt assistance.
In a recent incident where my account was compromised, the organization promptly notified me and implemented measures to prevent the theft of thousands of dollars. Additionally, they expedited the delivery of a replacement card to me during my absence, ensuring that I had access to my funds. The organization’s exceptional support in this matter has been truly commendable.
Abysmal customer service
My card got stolen over a week ago. Fraud dept was quick to contact me and I ordered a new credit card, and requested a rush order. I was told that the card would arrive in 3 business days.
It did not.
When I called about it today it seems that I was charged the $20 rush fee, but the card was sent via standard mail. After haggling with customer service they agreed to send me another one via “rush” order, so my waiting begins again.
This is the second time this same problem has occurred with my personal card and it happened with my spouse and my joint card a few months ago.
I am tired of the shoddy customer service. Really, really tired of it.
Its on the verge of lawyer time
Its on the verge of lawyer time, you are refusing to take my payoff payment for my mortgage despite following all you hoops and hurdles. Every day I am calling in for hours at time trying to get you to fix your errors. As a 30 year member I AM DONE WITH YOU !
This was the worst experience of a bank…
This was the worst experience of a bank ever. I've only had issues witht them. I was talking with them and each time I was told it was incorrect information each Representative told me. The only reason I used them was due to me working at target once I left the service was horrible take money whenever wanted to what account and let recurring charges continue to happen and with my overdraft at 1500.00 they let it got that high by also adding over draft charges each time. Wow no control over my accounts what so ever!! Plus money was deposited into my checking but they to9k my entire check towards my loan. How are people to pay bills with your institution controlling MY HARD EARNED MONEY! Wow how you trade peplo with there money as well as giving everything we as the people have.
I am writing yet again to express my…
I am writing yet again to express my frustration with the dreadful customer service at Baxter Credit Union. Baxter management has zero regard for wasting customers' time. I have lost countless hours waiting on hold and have often simply hung up after long-drawn-out wait time. And I am not just referring to minutes, I am talking hours.
After finally getting through if you need to get transferred then disconnected is always a frustrating experience. When and it continues to happens, you get to sit on hold again and start all over.
This is not an isolated incident. Baxter's race for automation has resulted in a complete lack of concern for customer time. It seems that you fail to recognize the direct impact of how consumers’ time is wasted while you continue to move farther away from what customers truly want.
Furthermore, there’s your callback system, which leaves customers uncertain about when—or if—they will ever actually receive a return call. It is another way for Baxter to provide minimal real customer service instead of hiring real people to address real issues. More consumer wasted time.
I’ve waiting on hold for over an hour only to find out that the wire transfer department had already closed for the day. This lack of timely support shows that Baxter management never has to deal with disgruntled customers directly. I guarantee that all members of Baxter would not appreciate being treated in this manner.
If you’re willing to give up your life just to wait Baxter out, then perhaps you might eventually get assistance. I did manage to speak with a very helpful representative named Alex, but my issues stem from your systems and the complete disregard for wasted customer time.
I am in the process of transferring all of my accounts out of Baxter ASAP.
Esto es una pesadilla de banco
Esto es una pesadilla de banco , llevo casi 40 años como cliente de Bcu, y en esté año 2024 y en menos de 3 meses he sido victima de intento de fraude en 3 ocasiones y con distintos números de tarjetas, el banco no me da una respuesta satisfactoria de donde se están iniciando estas transacciones, y lo único que te dicen es lo siento mucho que le halla sucedido esto. Lo cual conlleva a un cargo absurdo de $20.00 por obtener una tarjeta rush, o de lo contrario tengo que esperar de 7-14 días laborables para tener acceso a mi dinero; ya que Bcu no cuenta con una sucursal cerca en el estado de SC . Lo que implica un contratiempo en mi vida normal y si deseo la tarjeta rush debo pagar los $20.00 dólares por algo que el banco no puede controlar, para mi entender BCU se convierte en cómplice de este tipo de fraude quien sabe! A lo mejor hacen esto cada cierto tiempo para incrementar sus ganancias, afectando a los clientes a pagar una cantidad por un servicio que se supone está bajo el control del banco, ustedes se imaginan cuanto puede generar BCU en ganancias con esta práctica de cargar $20.00 por sustituir su tarjetas? Y que le digan lo siento mucho pero no podemos retirar el cargo. Me da mucha pena decir que después de casi 40 años como cliente el banco BCU no pueda solucionar mi problema cuando me está costando dinero el tener una cuenta en esta institución. Robar es robar no importa si viene de los estafadores o de tu banco.
Worst bank to use
Worst bank to use, I currently have them because of my car loan and I cannot wait for this loan to be paid off. I had an account that was charged off and paid and reopened my checking account to make it easier to pay my car loan which is another mission in itself. They will not let me use the atm or mobile deposit and want me to wait 6 months no thank you once my loan is paid I am out do not waste your time with this Credit union
I would say the worst bank around, but I think that they created their own category of ignorance, and poor service.
The absolute worst banking institution I've ever seen. Transferred money from one bank to BCU. Placed a hold on the funds. EVEN AFTER THE FUNDS CLEARED they placed a hold for 8 more days. Asked ME to provide proof that the money was deducted. WHAT? Why is that my job? Talked to a CSR, provided a screen shot of my bank's site AND the cancelled checks with BCU stamp on it. Nope, not good enough. Have to contact my bank to send PROOF. Then the CSR asked how I was going to use the funds? What? How is that any of your business? Finally got to a supervisor, who was a buffoon. Told me I had to send information with my bank account on it VIA EMAIL. Told him I don't send that information via email. He said their "servers were secure". How about all the servers in between? Will be closing my account ASAP. DO NOT USE or be prepared for issues.
