Default I’ve stayed with my old Credit Union

I looked for a local credit union when I moved here six years ago, but none could match the overdraft protection of the Credit Union of Denver. If I unknowingly depleted the funds in my checking, they would take money from my money market. If that ran dry, I had a $2,000 signature loan to step in. It’s only happened a few times in the four decades I’ve been doing business there, but it’s comforting to know that it’s there for me.

I frequent the Campus USA at Traverse near Brownwood. They are very nice and helpful. I go there to make deposits and get cash in small bills for tip money. They just laughed when I showed up with a check for $0.01!

I talked to them about getting an account there, but they just couldn’t match the protection of my old account. I haven’t needed a loan since moving here, so I just don’t see a reason to open an account here.
