Don’t Take a Chance with PenFed

I had a horrible experience trying to close on a new home because of PenFed. The date was rescheduled by a day and I still didn’t get the keys to my home on the rescheduled day. I had also made appointments and plans for the weekend after closing based on the loan processor saying they will have things done for closing on the rescheduled day. It didn’t happen. Their communication was horrible and/or false statements about being able to close at the scheduled time. Since this was a Friday and was actually supposed to close Thursday I am paying for utilities for four days in which the home builder can still go in and out of the house to check on things inside the house and run up the water bill and electric as they prepare the house as well. My loan processor Rob abandoned me on my closing day. He only called back once after the scheduled time for closing had passed by and already home after the attorneys office said that they couldn’t give me the keys because PenFed didn’t send their wire documents. The date of experience was 5/31/2024.

PenFed is like the USO for your wallet

PenFed has been there for me in tough times as a disabled veteran and I greatly appreciate them. They also have a policy and ethos of doing for others and helping those in need that I very much appreciate and respect. For those reasons I will always keep a flame burning at PenFed. But they also have great rates to offer for loans, credit cards and checking and savings accounts, and are very veteran friendly. They are very friendly for regular folks too and pop up on many a YouTuber's top five list of best credit unions in the country. Best financial institutions period. Highly recommend.

Auto Loan Refi

I wanted to lower my auto loan rate and looked online. I found a whole bunch of services that represent a whole bunch of lenders. They all wanted documents up front before giving out a rate. Who does that. I contacted Pen Fed, and with just a 5 min conversation I was given a rate quote (that was lower than elsewhere) and moving forward was super easy and pleasant. I already uploaded the 1 document they needed and I will be getting the loan file in a day or two, and that's it.

Loosing their edge

I have been a member of Penfed credit union for over 25 years, and I must note that each passing year seems to bring them closer to resembling traditional banks. While Penfed serves as my primary bank, it hasn't consistently met all my expectations. However, I have consistently managed to resolve any issues that arose. As a monthly user of wire transfer services, I've encountered instances where wires were lost, and, frustratingly, there were times when the wire wasn't even submitted. What compounds the issue is the lack of notification when such problems occur. Penfed does boast very competitive rates on various products, a commendable aspect. It's worth mentioning that (until recently) they offered an appealing 0% interest rate on credit card balance transfers, a feature I hope they reinstate very soon. Additionally, the previous flexibility to link multiple accounts for ACH transfers has been curtailed, limiting me to only two accounts. Allegedly, these adjustments were made to align Penfed with standard banking practices. If I wanted an experience akin to that of a conventional bank, I would open an account at one. In conclusion, while Penfed remains a relatively solid financial institution, the shift from being a top-tier entity to one more in line with average standards is evident.

Why I will always use PENFED

The process of applying for a loan is quick and easy! They don't ask a bunch of unnecessary questions. They offer a variety of options and have very competitive rates. A decision is received in minutes and funds are available within 2-3 days after approval.

Very helpful Credit Union and people can apply on line and get approved and don’t have to speak to a Customer Service rep, they are excellent. But you can do it on your own.

Pros and Cons

PROs: -Competitive rates on loans if you have good credit. -Easy to open an account. -Very friendly and responsive customer service. CONs: -Technology-side is absolutely awful. The website and mobile app straight up do not work from some clients! This is a real deal killer for a mostly on-line financial institution. I would advise PenFed really look to modernize their online and mobile banking infrastructure and get off whatever this incredibly janky Salesforce back-end is.
