When opening the account communication is great. But once the deal is closed, the problems start…read more Loans get transferred and will be bouncing btw the GLCU and servicing agents saying we are not responsible or we dont process anything. How many numbers or emails do we have to remember just to get info or get the correct info. And contacting via phone is a absolute nightmare. IVR puts you on hold and so many options to select from. This bank does cost me - my time.

I have been a customer for 12 years and built my standing up from a fresh start checking account…read moreand have all my direct deposits secured through this Credit Union. I have always heard that once you establish yourself with an institution of this type, loans on cars, homes and personal emergencies are quickly a d easily attained. Such is NOT the case. I don't know if my ex has a friend working there that is giving me a bad rap but i had an emergency loan request denied despite having a 100% on time payment history and a 663 credit score. I intend to be at the next board meeting and voice my displeasure. Multiple promises to call me back, then told messages were left and they were not. I was so proud of my association with GLCU and even participated in their fun runs across the street to promote their community involvement. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE LONG TIME CUSTOMER??? So sad to see such callous and impersonal rejection when a need arises. Credit Union should be replaced with Private Social Club.

Finally got done after alot of stress and NOW I get a letter that I am the successor (filled out in May) and still getting acct info sent to HER, even though the acct is closed. Heartless company with incompentant workers! Please never use this bank and get out if you do (if you can!) A nightmare to deal with!

We had good service until the branch manager in Gurnee moved away…read more Then sharks at the corporate office swooped in and demanded I pay a steep service charge for my business accounts. You have that right. I was supposed to pay them for having accounts in their bank and letting them use that money for their own gain. Instead, I moved all of them to another bank. My clients and I have been much happier.

I guess that means tellers don't see very many customer either, which brings me here to write a review, or should I say a complaint. No one was in line, so Jennifer (Jenny) called me right up. I just needed a money order, but apparently you can't buy it with cash, you need to deposit your cash, then take a money order out from your account, so Jenny tried to explain this to me in the shortest and least informative way. I'm just being normal, but I feel like I'm being talked down too, she had this tone. A little sincerity here would have gone a long way. Hope her day gets better quick so someone else doesn't get the bad attitude too.

This location was pretty busy for 9am on a Saturday. Or are banks always that busy on Saturdays? I guess I don't normally come too often to know. After my transaction, I needed to see a personal banker and was pushing my luck to see if I can see one right after my teller transaction. He was actually very nice and was able to get me an appointment in the next 15 minutes! That's what you call legendary service.

We've been customers here for around 15 years and I would highly recommend this bank to anyone. The…read moreservice is great and the fees are extremely low in comparison to other banks in the area. What sets this bank apart from other banks? They have a very low turnover of employees--and that means that they know you by name when you walk in the front door! I had been with another local bank for about 10 years prior to coming to Bridgeview, and it seemed like they had a different set of employees every time I went in! The online banking with Bridgeview is also excellent (great iPhone app). However, the employees are so friendly you will want to stop in from time to time just to say "Hello."
