North West Federal Credit Union is the best banking institution or credit union that I have ever dealt with. They are very knowledgeable about their products and offerings and I always feel welcome when I go. I get the best interest on my student savings account and the best of all is that it compounds daily! At my other bank I do not receive the attention I get like here. One thing I would say for them to do better on is their online customer service. Once I ordered a new card for my checking account and did not receive it for over two months. That is just unacceptable! I really like their checking also because they do not charge me for overdraft fees. Another thing I would like to see is if they had more branches so I would be able to access them more often. Overall, I have been extremely satisfied with their savings and checking accounts that I have open at the credit union, and I plan to do more business with them in the future.
This credit union has outstanding CD rates and great customer service. I have read a lot of the other reviews on here and cannot say that I have had the same experiences they have. The one thing that is not great about this credit union is their technology. The online experience is lacking from the website (newly updated) to the process to open a new account, but the member service from their call center representatives is phenomenal. I even brought my car loan here because of their service and low rates.
I believe that Northwest Federal Credit Union is a great small credit union in Northern Virginia. This credit union has awesome customer service and it continues to be available when I am in need of great customer service. This credit union typically has a great response to all of my needs. This credit union also has low fees however the transfer between a different bank account can take a long time. I've been with Northwest Federal Credit Union for about 5 years now and I have really enjoyed being a member. This credit union gives you a great small town vibe in a big city environment. This bank has really been there for me when I needed them.
Joining this credit union has been the best financial decision I've made in a while.
I've been trying to open a $50,000 cd at this Credit Union. I've so far invested almost 2hrs yesterday. And still it isn't done. I've been on hold trying to contact them for over 1hour so far. I would definitely discourage anyone to do business with them. Customer service is nonexistent . UPDATE: We did finally connect with customer service. Must have been a glitch with there incoming calls. I received an apology which was greatly appreciated. However, your website is just not that user friendly for new accounts. Needs some tweaking for sure.
