    I recently needed some help with my finances at Valley Strong. Taylor McKenzie helped me with all…read morethe paperwork. She went the extra mile to help me get everything straightened out. I'm very grateful for her. She is professional and very kind. Thank you again Taylor!

    We have banked here since around 1984 when it was Kern Schools. We have had mortgages, auto loans,…read moreetc. Ever since it changed to Valley Strong we have had problems. Our account has been compromised twice during the last few months and getting it taken care of with new cards, etc. has taken MONTHS each time. The last time we were told we would be mailed new cards and we STILL haven't received one of the cards and that was MONTHS ago. Just today when I got a text that I'm thinking might be from fraud and I call the bank I'm told I'm "Caller number 50" I have been on hold twice, each time over 30 minutes. WHO has time for that every time they call? Spoke to a customer service representative today and told her we would be closing our accounts. She said, "well I certainly can't talk you out of that and you're welcome to close your accounts if you like" Well THANK YOU for telling me I can close my accounts, sooooo helpful. Good-bye Valley Strong! Update: after receiving the response from Nicholas I did call the number he provided. No answer so I left a message. Ms. Whitmore called me back. She was apologetic and I believe sincere. She said the call would be reviewed and the customer service agent spoken to and gave me a direct line to a branch manager so if I had further questions/concerns I could call him directly instead of going through the call center. For now, I will keep our accounts and appreciate her willingness to resolve this.

    Rose Johnston, Valley Strong Credit Union, Financial Solutions Officer was GREAT…read more She knew what to do with my new application. Knew how to do everything that was needed. She had me completely finished in less than a half an hour. She was not only professional, but also funny and kind. She explained all aspects of the new account and helped me chose what I needed. I highly recommend Valley Strong Credit Union and if you go there, ask for Rose. The service there was quick and professional. I did not take photos of the bank.

    I have been banking with Valley strong since it was Kern schools. I had a teen checking account…read morewhen I first started wiorking and I never had issues until a couple months ago. Valley strong consitinly declines my transactions outside of Kern county even if I said I would be traveling which is first of all embaressing and second inconvient. My biggest issue is the false advertisement on getting paid 2 days early. My husband is in the military and his check is aleasy shown as pending at least 4-5 days in advance to the actual pay day. The earilest Valley strong ever releases the checks is a day prior. We have called and asked why this always happens and they always say, "sorry, but the funds aren't available". I moved my check over to navy federal and I really was paid 2 days prior. The pay day is on the 15th of this month and when I spoke to Navy federal that said that if we banked with them the funds would release the 12th. We spoke to Valley strong this morning and they said it will be in the day of the pay day the 15th. That right there is false advertisement.

    This is my favourite location!!! On Old river near Independence High school only a few miles away…read morefrom my house a huge plus!! I normally do business at Panama but wow that local sucks ass now sorry Valley Strong that place needs some customer service updates ;) This location is like a breath of fresh air for me as soon as I walked in! Wow! Smiles, eagerness, genuine personalities!! LOVE IT!! Miss Yessenia was my advisor and she like everyone else i encountered here rocks! Made everything smooth did all the right checks on the trust, checking and money market accounts I was interested in. As most of you know an unfortunate chain of events caused by my family members put my dad almost into foreclosure, drained his bank account and maxed his credit card while he was incapacitated in the hospital in critical condition. They still think they did nothing wrong and can't seem to admit anything even being caught red handed by myself and the police. Not even the police confiscating dad's bank cards from them made them admit anything! But I guess that's normal with people that don't think they should work for a living they have to sponge off of a 75 year old man truly sad... Well fast forward to now I've been nothing but impressed with the service here, fantastic actually!! The money market helps my dad's money from the sale of his house make money a VERY decent amount to help continue to pay for his ongoing dementia care which btw is incredibly expensive! Medicare doesn't cover this! They don't help with his rent in the facility they only cover meds, diapers, nurses visits and bathing by a health aide weekly. So the money market account is essential in helping me pay for his care. Miss Yessenia made this the most stress free seamless process. This is the only location i do business at now. Thank you guys so much!!

    I love this place on Old River Rd by my home ! the staff in this facility are always very friendly…read moreand professional with a smile on there faces when you walk in. It's a very fast in and out bank. Thank you Valley Strong.
