Patelco Credit Union has been my credit union for a few years now. They show a high level of professionalism, financial knowledge, and offer excellent customer service. They treat their members well and are always reliable. The Milpitas Branch was recently offering a special 9% CD for Patelco's 90th anniversary. I stopped by the newly relocated branch, and opened up my CD with Jamese. She was very friendly and made the whole process very easy. She didn't pressure me into any other financial services, and I was able to open up my CD in less than ten minutes! I have also had great experiences with financial matters with Mike, Tram, Sabrina, Maria, Shaleen, and the manager- Chris. The whole team is excellent. Overall, I highly recommend Patelco for any financial services. They are professional and always put their members first. read more

Mimi at the branch across from the Great Mall deserves 10 stars she was soo patient with me as l need extra help with my account Appreciate her so much 10 Stars read more

Very rude customer service. They treat new clients as if they are not worth talking to. They speak nicely if they see you have money; otherwise, they are least bothered. I will never recommend this place to anyone. Head of Patelco, Teach some manners to your employees. Ridiculous. read more

I am new to Patelco. Mimi has helped me out so many times and she truly cares about my finances. she gives me tips and let's know the interest rates and how to maximize my money. I truly feel like im cared about and my future is important read more

The staff at the Milpitas branch are friendly and personable. If a line forms, the branch manager or loan offer steps in to help members. We have taken advantage and used several services the credit union offers. Their Money Market savings account allows you to save at a higher rate than low to no interest checking accounts. read more

Great service! Mimi was kind and helpful, she was very thorough with my options and helped me understand what I need to do. Definitely recommend her for newcomers like me! read more

I had the best experience at Patelco in Milpitas!!! I didn't even want to go but I'm so happy I did. Jamese was the best possible teller I could've gotten. She helped me create a new checking account and gave me all the options for which savings account would be best for me that I wouldn't have even considered otherwise. Jamese made banking so quick and easy and actually so much fun. I always use online banking but now with Patelco I'm coming back in person to see Jamese anytime I need anything. Thank you, Jamese!! read more

Briefly opened a an account at patelco's Credit Union in Milpitas. All I want to do is activate my debit card someone told me to get on the app and it was easy to do to activate the card. But I was wrong it was not that easy to activate after time and time again I could not activate my card don't know why called customer service got to run around for a few days finally went into the credit union and they still couldn't help me activate the card told me I got to get on the app to do it after days of frustration I went into the credit union again and there was this lady named Jumese. She worked her magic and I was able and she activated my car just like that no hassle no fuss and she did it all with a smile. I strongly recommend her her customer services off the hook. You want to get things done see Jumese. And she's got a sense of humor which makes it even super. read more

Jamese helped me out so much today as my teller, informed me about options around my account, and helped me sign up. She was so quick to process my request, and left me so glad that i have patelco. She was patient and informative despite a long process, and made coming in easy and put me at ease. thank you so much Jamese. read more

My rep was nothing but amazing. Jamese took the time to explain all the perks and programs the bank had to offer. She made the experience seem less. Thank you! read more

Patelco has been in my life for over thirty years, which is a testament that I've had a positive, and supportive experience with this financial institution. However, in the past year and most recently it has gotten sweeter with the professional, supportive, friendly and kind services I've received from Shenelee and Jamesa at the Milpitas branch (McCandless/Landess) I just want to "shout" them out and encourage them to continue to provide "stand-out" service because it is appreciated! Thank you both, E. Daniels read more

Alex I wanted to take a moment to truly thank you for making our family feel so welcome and attentive for our banking needs.  You're a great guy and one of the real reasons we love doing business with the Milpitas branch. read more

Patelco has the best customer service and also its the best bank anyone can bank with. This team is awesoem. Good job Patelco team in milpitas read more

Hands down the best car loan experience! I am a first time new customer - had 3 days to find a bank that would be willing to beat the rate that carmax was offering me. I called Patelco on a early Monday Morning Alex Q. Helped me over the phone he was very patient (knowing I was in a hurry) & understanding with me that I was nervous doing this over the phone and via email. He walked me step by step explaining throughly in a way I could understand & he made me feel that I could trust him with very sensitive information. Less than an hour later I received an email from Patelco indicating wonderful news & was able to beat carmax loan rate!! Finished the car loan application with Bernard T. Who also walked me step by step over the phone with uploading all personal documents needed to finalize the process. After many emails back and forth- He too was also very professional & understanding and patient with me! By 3pm Bernard was able to generate/print a check at my nearest Patelco location and I was able to pick up the check, then drop off to carmax that same evening! Both Alex and Bernard went above and beyond to help me without having to step foot in their Milpitas branch. So grateful they took my call and appreciate their willingness and efforts to help me. overall happy that a Patelco was able to help me! Anyone looking for a loan, do yourself a favor and go to Patelco first before stepping foot at any dealership. You won't regret it! Thank you Alex & Bernard! I will be referring more friends and fam to you! read more

Mike was helpful with us. Helped regained our trust with Patelco. Before, previous management wasn't so good at this Milpitas branch and made us skeptical whether to even continue to bank at Patelco. However, after meeting with Mike he was straightforward and prompt, and got things done for us in a timely manner. read more

I was looking to finance an auto loan with no prior experience & Alex made the whole process so quick & easy. I really recommend Alex, he explained everything i needed to know & had me in & out right away with all my questions answered. Also want to thank Julie from their funding team for being so quick with her responses & funding my auto loan! I would rate my experience 10/5 if i could! Look for Alex, he's the man to help you!! read more

I would like to give props to the Branch manager "Carl" he called me up and change the situation about me going back to Patelco. I feel better knowing that he found a resolution and showed me as a new customer. What's easy and how to use my account. He's a pretty cool guy. Thanks for calling me and getting back at me and changing my mind about your Branch i'd like to thank Sabrina. Also she's a cool cashier. She knows what she's doing. read more

Around 1400 today, we walked-in to this branch. Spoke with this bank teller named Sabrina, greeted us with a quick smile and thought she was friendly but I was wrong. She gives you this impression of not wanting to help anyone. She was giving you this mean look and the way she talks to you while explaining about my debit card was very intimidating. She is unprofessional and not very accommodating nor friendly. She needs to be trained with professionalism or maybe proper way of handling customer service. She started talking nicely when I asked her name after the transaction. (She was not wearing her name tag). read more

I want to give Christ Huynh excellent service. The manager was very friendly and helped me with my refinance, and the loan proceeded to buy out my Lexus. I appreciate and love your bank. read more

So this is how they conduct business to new clients. Came here twice within a span of 2 months. Both time, we had talked and discuss my plans I like to pursuit with this credit Union. They took my number down so they contact me later to make an appointment so we can further talk about which option was best for me. Both times, they never hit me back up. I came back second time and they were so apologetic about it happening the first time. Well I didn't think they it would happen again. Joke on me. It's been 3 weeks since my last visit. Taking my business elsewhere. Don't waste ur time here. I had to pay a babysitter out of my time and money to come here twice. Mind you, I was being persistent and kept reaching out for follow up. No response or call back read more

Thank you, Alex and Greta! I was fortunate to have the first world problem of having a high-demand electric car company tell me, with extremely short notice, that the car I ordered in August was ready on 11/4, and if I don't make arrangements to take delivery, they'd pass it onto the next customer (car company gave me lots of mixed messages: told me April. Then October. Then December. Then ... pick it up now - 11/4, or else). So, I needed a loan, on a Friday, for delivery on Saturday/Sunday, and by the time I got my ducks in a row, it was close to close of business. Alex on the store end was unphased. He got all my paperwork processed, got a hold of all the loan folks to get the ball rolling, though he hit a technical snag that required follow-up the next day (my wife, who was out of town, needed to be on the loan since she was also going to be registered on the car). Greta took the ball over on the loan end, and called me, and my wife, kept in close contact, and got the wire confirmation to the car company. Alex and Greta did a lot to maneuver, and problem solve through the process and get the job done, and they made it feel seamless. Professionalism: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Stick-to-it-tive-ness: 10/10 Alex's Humor: 10/10 Greta's Bedside manner when I'm wondering if I'll be OK: 10/10. Would I come back: Y Suggest to a friend: Y read more

Customer service has been horrendous at this branch since the security issue last month. Upon coming into the branch to check my account balance I was met with attitude from one of the tellers rather than a friendly answer to my inquiry. Today the teller suggested the scamming of my card from the PATELCO CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER was my fault and again gave attitude. Don't go to this location for banking. read more

Perfect customer service every single time! They are attentive, helpful & honest. 5 STARS!!!

The bankers here are always friendly and have great customer service skills. I'm usually in and out of here within a decent amount of time, and even if there were a lot of people waiting, they offer refreshments such as coffee, candy, and sometimes cookies too! It's rare that I see refreshments at other banks (the most they have are some lollipops that seem like they've been sitting there for months), so it seems like Patelco actually cares about their customers. read more

Chris Huynh is an amazing guy. He went above and beyond to help me with my private party car purchase. He helped and guided me through the whole process and I wanna thank him for being someone and I can talk to and ask all my questions. Also Angelo, he was great as well with helping me as well and made everything so simple and easy to finish/finalize my loan process. This was my second time doing a loan process with this branch and I highly recommend them! Super grateful for all their help. read more

Went in today to apply for a new/used auto loan. The bank manager was very helpful and polite. Also, shared some information I didn't know about the loan process which was very important. I've been with Patelco Credit Union for over 7 years now and have always had a great experience with them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'm approved for the loan. Thank you so much Patelco read more

Customer service is really bad at this bank you always can't get a hold of anyone don't matter what time of the day it is. When you have questions about your account and need a real person to talk to about the issue nobody there but a stupid machine. Closing this account!!! read more

Excellent service!!!! The ladies are very helpful, professional, and they went far beyond what I came in for. Through their partnership with Enterprise Car, I was able to drive my new car that day or shall I say night Thank you so much ladies and Patelco. I would highly recommend this location to anybody! read more

The loan officer is a total idiot, i had an appontment and took time off of work to meet with her, and it turned out she left early and did not know of the appointment, but they saw i was sheduled to come in on the computer. read more

I have been a member of Patelco since 2014 and when covid-19 hit things changed for the worse... The 800# you can't talk to anyone holding for hour's, and the ATM is a joke! I tried to deposit my check last night and it kept spitting it out?? I move to Hayward that's why I chose this Credit Union, I'm going back to my old Credit Union where I felt like A MEMBER 100% read more

Mr. Quebec, thank you for your patience, understanding and kindness, most appreciated.

My Membership opening was an awesome experience shout out to Paula she really took good care of me great service and detailed about all the services. Thank you Paula read more

This is my favorite branch, they are helpful and get things done. I am in the process of purchasing home and it's required several trips to Patelco. The process is already stressful and I visited 2 other Patelco locations, closer to me, but they were not as accommodating and reassuring as this branch. I ran into a situation yesterday where money needed to be wire transferred to complete the process. The lender required that the money be received by 9AM the next morning and I was told that wasn't possible. Given the urgency of the situation I went to the Calaveras location and they made it happen, which usually is impossible. By 7Am this morning the money was transferred and I am so relieved and appreciate what the staff was able to do for me. Today I am a new home owner and I am very grateful. Special thanks to Alex Quebec, Azita and Taira for being so helpful and efficient. read more

We were sent to this branch to get our debit card because our home branch machine was not working and we needed a card. They said to rush over there and that they would give them a heads up to wait a little for us since we would be getting there close to 2pm. It is out of our way (20 min) but since we really needed a card we rushed. We get there at exactly 2pm and they were like we can't do anything. Other banks have a 5 minute grace period before and after. All they had to do was print two debit cards and they couldn't make an exception. I am a new member and to be honest this is disappointing. read more
