I opened an account here almost a year ago, after being constantly disappointed by my then banking…read moreinstitution. I wholeheartedly recommend this Credit Union. The staff here are always interested in assisting their customers at any given moment. They have remembered who I am every time I go to this branch. They are friendly, professional and they never make you feel like you are intruding. And you never feel like you are an imposition asking questions they probably heard a million times. The staff always answers with a smile and always asks, before you leave, if there is anything else they can help you with. To mention the staff I have regularly dealt with are Brian, Emily, Chad and Elanda. They are the epitome of what customer service is and should be like everywhere. With recent time sensitive issues, Elanda and Chad were instrumental in getting my issue taken care of with the utmost respect to me and to my situation. In conclusion, there is no better banking institution than the North Greenbush Community Resource Federal Credit Union! I encourage you to take your business there, open an account, check out their competitive rates and bank with people and an institution that really and truly cares about their customers.

They said leave your number and we will call you. I did and not only did I not get a call they removed entire post!?

I have accounts with several other local banks and at most they all hold a bank check for 24 hours. Not KeyBank lol. OVER 8 days!!! And when you ask them why they tell you it's bank policy lol. If you are looking for a quality bank to deal with, I would highly recommend NOT choosing KeyBank. God forbid I actually needed these funds (CASH) right away. Btw...if you read the reviews on this or any rating agency, I'm not alone.

I had a terrible experience at this branch. I arrived with all the necessary documents from another…read morebranch and had a 3 PM appointment. When I returned at 2:55 PM, I was greeted by Melissa Jayme, who didn't even realize I was her scheduled appointment. She initially said she likely wouldn't be able to help me, and only after a teller informed her did she proceed with the appointment. I explained that I was handling my late grandmother's account as a beneficiary, but Melissa showed no empathy and was dismissive the entire time. She requested two forms of ID, and when I provided my passport, she seemed irritated and questioned if it was sufficient. She also doubted my notarized documents and went to ask a teller, who confirmed they were correctly completed. Instead of helping me, she came back and insisted I complete forms that I couldn't even fill out without knowing what was in the account. She ultimately did nothing to assist me--just wasted my time. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is already hard enough; the least she could have done was provide decent customer service. I'm relieved that most of the process was handled at another branch because I did not feel comfortable here at all. Melissa should be retrained, as her lack of professionalism and knowledge made this a horrible experience

I don't know what Ticia G. is smoking, but it sure has skewed her perception of this credit union…read more (Oh: her review is over 14 years old. Maybe that has something to do with it. Maybe CEFCU used to be good. Not anymore!) They don't charge you $1.50 for overdrawing your account; they charge you $28 per transaction. Everything they do, they do incredibly, unbelievably, painfully slowly. I told an acquaintance of mine that I was looking to change banks. He asked who I was with and when I said "SEFCU" he shook his head slowly and said, "I left them 20 years ago. They're awful. They don't care, and they act like they're doing you a favor." And indeed, that has been my exact experience with them. They're technophobic to the point that they don't trust their computers and so forth to secure funds; instead they need to see you face-to-face, and assess your transactions for 90 days (yes, NINETY DAYS) before they'll let you deposit a check through their mobile app. Because, you know...you just can't trust those computers! Ask them why any of their nonsensical, self-serving policies are in place and they won't be able to answer your question. They are a credit union perfectly in step with the thinly disguised backwoods 'burb that is Albany. Awful.
