West Coast Federal Emplys CU in Sarasota, FL

Great staff members & tellers, highly recommend this credit union.

Member for over 50 years and was very happy till the last few years. Many things have changed and not for the better. I was charged fee`s ( $ 20 ) to remove IRA`S that were bought many many years ago before these fee`s were ever through of. With the low interest rate being paid on IRA`S, these fee`s wipe out what little interest you might of made. In the past I felt our CU looked out for it`s members, not anymore.

These people don't even care when they ruin your account. Payment to go out on 6th they send 1st. then charge us for their mistake. Pathetic. Its a wonder that they still have jobs let alone are open.

This place is a waste of time and effort. Went there 2/13/17 to open an account and was told by a greeter after waiting TEN MINUTES that I needed my social security card on hand to open an account. I've NEVER had a bank ask for that. As suggested by the social security administration I keep it in a safe place at home as they advise against keeping it in your wallet. So I drive home to get my social security card and return 25 MINUTES later only to have to WAIT 35 MINUTES in their lobby for a banker. After talking to the banker I was told I'd have to update my license with my current address before they'd open an account for me, despite several other possible provable methods. I was planning on waiting to update my license when it needs to be renewed this upcoming July rather then give the state $33.50 now only to have to pay again to renew it. Wasted a hour and a half with these guys. Truelly felt like they didn't want my business. It was only minutes away from their closing time by the time I finally got service.

I've banked here for 12 years never had a problem. Recently opened an account for my youngest child. Very happy with the service.
