Some church credit unions, for instance, have Sunday hours following church services. Some businesses have credit unions right on the premises. Credit unions specialize in helping educate their members for a better financial future. Many help youngsters understand how to begin saving for their dreams. Credit unions frequently are available in places where banks aren't, such as community development neighborhoods.
Many credit unions offer no-surcharge ATMs that any credit union member can use.
As a member of a credit union, regardless of how much you have on deposit, you have an equal voice in how your credit union is run. There are credit unions available that only offer the services you need. If you don't need a sophisticated Web site or 24-hour loan services, you may be eligible to join a credit union that offers just the services you use most. U.S. Highway 1, North Palm Beach, Fl.
