Highly agreed my friend. I have never ever been charged a single fee for anything by my credit union. I've been there for 10 years now. Aside from the money they make loaning out my deposits there, I don't think they've ever made a cent off me. They have a direct deposit from my employer, but they pay me 1% APY monthly and I am sure they're losing money on me in that regard,
- toast0 8y agoIf they're paying you 1% APY on deposits now, they're not losing money. The going rate rate on deposits these days is a little over 2%.
- anoncoward111 8y agoI agree, but what I think I mean is, whatever theyre making on my direct deposit (probably $10 a month in fees to my employer) is less than the 0.83% of xx,xxx in my checking :) I would surely love 2% on my checking though! I thought 2% was on cash back, I will need to search for 2% checking with no restrictions somewhere
- toast0 8y agoI think I see where you're going about the fees from your business. I agree, there's really not a lot of income directly generated, but a checking/savings account doesn't generate a lot of costs either. My understanding is it your credit union originates and services loans, that can be a pretty significant interest generator. My credit union will give you 2% in checking if you meet all of these: 10 debit or credit card purchases per month enroll in and maintain eStatements, eNotices, eTax & eCoupons for your accounts and loans $300 minimum monthly ACH credit transaction or $5000 in deposit or loan balances Previously, they required 10 debit card transactions per month, and I'm not sure I've made that many in my life. I'm going to check a bit closer on this, thanks. Credit union is StarOne.
