Might depend on the country though. I grew up where credit unions were really common and just assumed they were the best. I had to switch to something else cause I moved across the country and my credit union was only on western Canada. While shopping around, I realized that the big Canadian banks were offering way more than my credit union ever was. Plus their website actually felt modern.
Broader than a brand, but I think it fits here…
Everyone hates banks. Credit Unions are better in every possible way.
Well one disadvantage of credit unions is that you might not be able to get a debit card. Loan interest is usually way better though.
Huh? I’ve used 4 different credit unions, and I never heard of being unable to get a debit card.
