Credit Unions vs. Banks: Which Is Right for You?
Many Washingtonians choose to bank with a credit union or a federal credit union nstead of a traditional bank. Credit unions aren't beholden to a group of shareholders, as they are not listed in the stock exchange.
Credit union account holders are considered members, not 'customers', and they typically enjoy higher returns on their savings accounts than a traditional bank offers. They also offer lower interest rates on loans for things like homes and cars and allow customers to use their debit cards at ATM locations across the country via the Co-op Network.
Some customers may not like the lack of human tellers in some credit union locations or the fact that typical bank transactions like exchanging bills for coins including quarters, for instance, are not offered as a customer feature in certain branches.
