They do advertise quit a bit; but I don’t think they give away dumb loans. I haven’t been inside their physical branches in a while, but they have always been very helpful and knowledgeable on phone.
You want some really bad customer service? Have you been to a BofA or Wells Fargo bank?

July 15, 2008 at 5:39 PM #239937nostradamusParticipantBoA is the worst, I’ll never bank there. Unless their interest rates are 2x everyone else. When my Dad died I had to wrap up his accounts there, and I’ve never been to a worse-run operation.
SDCCU has been friendly and informative with me but I do see a lot of ads about their mortgages; however, their balance sheet indicates that they are not at risk. I spent about 2 hours there yesterday (Sorrento Valley branch). They treated me well.

Tells us more, Peter. I stumbled across this and insurance was up to $250k, but depositors either had to be living in the county or institutional (?). It certainly seemed like an option.
