Deceptive marketing. They will constantly change their terms on you to make sure you're not eligible for the promos they have listed. Rather than own up to their mistake, they decide to take it out on the customers.

Very poor customer service. They will lure you to be member by opening promo with wearied rules. Online application will tell you that promo is successfully applied and than later they will not respect their own website accepted promotion. Stay far away to protect your hard earned money.

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience with BCU Credit Union. I filed a dispute regarding a charge tied to a hotel stay that had serious issues, including concerns about mold that were publicly documented. Despite providing context and trying to explain the situation thoroughly, my claim was denied with little to no meaningful support. What makes this even more frustrating is that I’ve seen how other financial institutions handle situations like this with care, advocacy, and a genuine effort to protect their members. In my experience, another bank I’ve worked with in the past took the time to investigate thoroughly, communicate clearly, and actually support me through a dispute process. That level of service makes a huge difference, especially as a military spouse who deals with frequent moves and relies on financial institutions to act in good faith. Unfortunately, I did not feel that same level of support from BCU. The process felt dismissive, and the outcome did not reflect a customer-first approach. Based on this experience, I have closed my account and taking my business elsewhere. I truly hope BCU reevaluates how they handle member disputes in the future.

Jennifer provided outstanding support with my auto loan at BCU. She handled everything efficiently—from taking my loan on March 20 to having the payoff check sent by March 25—allowing my plan to work perfectly with two months free of payments. I can be a bit challenging with my questions, but Jennifer was patient, professional, and thorough every step of the way. I truly appreciate her dedication and would highly recommend her to anyone needing expert, attentive service. You have to get the right team member that cares. If dealing with BCU automobile loans, ask for Jennifer. 👍

Terrible checking account. Almost all my online purchases are flagged for fraud and then never go through. You have to call in to do anything with your account and the technology is terrible on the banking account

I've banked with credit unions for over 35 years and Baxter Credit Union is the polar opposite of what I expected. Credit Unions make their members feel like they are appreciated and tend to offer a more personal banking experience. BCU credit union is nothing like what I expected.

BCU pulled a classic bait-and-switch on my mortgage one day before closing. After weeks of proceeding under one ARM structure and rate, they changed the loan to a different ARM product at a higher rate, when I was already effectively locked in and out of alternatives. That alone destroyed any trust. I paid the loan off quickly just to be done with them—only to discover they assessed a late fee on a ONE-CENT balance. Yes, $0.01. To make it worse, their website is so poorly designed that it was not even possible to pay that balance online, which is how the “late” fee was triggered in the first place. Customer service is an absolute nightmare: Endless automated menus No clear escalation path No ownership or accountability You burn time just trying to talk to a human who can actually fix something This was not a one-off inconvenience—it was a pattern of poor systems, poor communication, and zero customer empathy. Between the last-minute loan change, nickel-and-diming over a penny, and unusable digital tools, BCU demonstrated that they are not equipped to handle mortgages professionally. I would strongly advise anyone considering a home loan to look elsewhere unless you enjoy surprises at closing and fighting automated phone trees over trivial balances.
