Feels apt considering the recent election results. Don’t let your money fund fossil fuels, use climate conscious banks like Atmos.

I use a local credit union. I am extremely unsatisfied, and they are widely viewed as the best credit union / banking option in the region.
Want to make a purchase or pay a bill over $1,500? Have to call the credit union! And they’ll want to know exactly what you are spending this money on before they’ll approve it. That’s right: They will withhold your own money from you if your large expense isn’t satisfactory to them.
Fuck you, BECU. One of these days I’ll switch to another credit union or back to one of the big banks.
That’s unfortunate; I’ve used the same credit union for about 22 years and have never had any issues like you describe at all. My experience has been incredibly smooth and I’ve never had any issues with availability of funds coming into or out of my account. Hopefully you can find a better one.
I have found another local one with a higher limit, but I don’t know if they are as invasive and, frankly judgmental, about it when you need to exceed that.
