Depends on the credit union.  The last one I dealt  with  had  higher  loan
rates  than  some local banks, generally discourteous help, low interest on
deposits, and was inconveniently located so all transactions had to  be  by
phone  or  mail.  When  they  converted  to  a  "cheaper"  touch-tone phone
withdrawal system and told me I could now pay $1 a month for the priviledge
of  accessing my money or perform all transactions by mail with no standard
forms available I said "Enough!".  Which is why I go to a bank.
