Worst bank/ credit union ever! Worst bank/ credit union ever! Will move numbers around so you can seem to be negative just so they can charge you an overdraft fee. Even though you go and deposit funds before days end.

Disappointment My name is Silvino Pires, I’ve been a member of RBFCU for more than 10 years, and I currently have 4 accounts at this bank. I USUALLY keep a MINIMUM balance of $10k among my accounts. I also have a master credit card from this bank and a personal line of credit. I also move over $330k a year thru my business. Well, I want to say that my rates with either the credit card and credit line are the worst possible going from 11% and up. I’ve tried loans with RBFCU and have been declined a few times. When I was approved, the rate was a rip off. Some of these loans have been approved by other institutions such as Capital One, Ally, GM Financial, and Credit Human for a much lower rate than my own bank. A couple of times RBFCU have put me in very inconvenient and embarrassing situations. This time was the worst: a former partner, which I had a joint account in this bank in the past, made a transfer of $7k to my account (same bank transfer) on Saturday April 20th, and the RBFCU put a hold on the money for a few days. On April 22nd I realized they also froze all my accounts and cards that I and my employees use to run my business. I had to stop all operations because my employees had no way to run without the money. I went to the branch and I also called the fraud department unsuccessfully because there was nothing they could do about it. They told me that my friend who made the transfer had to call in and release the deposit he made. This took him another extra couple of hours on hold (terrible and inefficient fraude department service). Most of my business day was compromised. Finally after my ex-partner talked to them they released my accounts but guess what? They pulled the money ($7000) back to my friends account. This morning I called my friend, and told him I didn’t get the money. He transferred the money again to my account, and the bank put another hold on my money. For me, This seems like a joke. They must be playing a game with me. I find it extremely ridiculous to put a hold on a legit transaction between two members in the same bank, and freezing all my account and cards is way out of boundaries. There’s no reasonable explanation for a bank to do that. It’s irresponsible, offensive, insulting, financially harmful, and injurious. I have called the bank fraud department today, and requested that the person in charge calls me and give me an explanation of how The bank is protecting me freezing all my accounts. Explain to me what freezing all my accounts and cards, have to do with a “suspicious“ deposit. I’ll definitely post here their reasonable response if It’s a reasonable one.

NO ASSISTANCE IF EXPERIENCING HARDSHIP I have an auto loan with RBFCU. I had fallen chronically ill that lasted about a year. During this time I was able to keep up with my payments for sometime, but eventually fell behind 6 months. During the 6 months I would call every month to get some kind of assistance. Short and simple they advised under no circumstances do they offer payment deferments, reduced payment amounts, nothing. If you’re someone who could ever end up in a similar situation, I strongly advise to not do business with RBFCU as far as auto loans. Currently they’re attempting to repo my vehicle and have advised I need to pay a lump sum of all the past due amount or they would not except any type of payments. Thanks for reading.

Unjustify hard credit pull Please DO NOT use this bank. They did a hard pull on my credit without even discussing whether the loan I was applying for would fit my needs. They are unresponsive and care nothing about client satisfaction.

Being a member of RBFCU since 1982 Being a member of RBFCU since 1982, I have seen customer service go to total crap. They have lost the personal touch, don’t return phone calls, want to work via email. They seem to work better with people that have low credit scores and excellent payment history. Treating credit worthy people like they are dirt with question after question after question. I have also personally seen members with poor credit get loans right and left without any problems. I guess they like these consumers more because they get more interest off of them.
