### 5/5 — Always great service!

*2024-10-03, version 24.8.0.1*

From Putney Credit Union to River Valley Credit Union to 802 Credit Union it’s the only place I’ve had accounts until moving to Michigan! I still have an account and always will! Even though they have grown significantly they still take very good care of its members. My first full time job was with Putney Credit Union. I always appreciate the quick personal service provided. Even though I reside 700 miles away I’ll always be an 802 girl!

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2024-09-10, version 24.4.0.1*

I love this app. It is so helpful and convenient for my everyday banking. There are some flaws that happen often. It will say that my password is wrong and won’t let me in. Always at the most inconvenient times! It also will deactivate face recognition and’s won’t let me reactivate it. Then I have to go to the bank to fix it. They can’t seem to figure out why it happens. Also I would love if our bank could make the debit cards right there at the bank. It’s extremely difficult to have to wait for new ones!! Some times these issues make me want to switch banks. I have seriously thought about it. I love this bank and have been a member for 17 years. I really hope they can fix these issues.

### 5/5 — Best banking ever

*2024-09-10, version 24.4.0.1*

802 makes it easy to use and if you have any issues with signing in they can help walk you through it everything you need is right at your fingertips to pay all your bills and see everything that you have done for any transaction at all you can see it and dispute anything if you need to as well

### 5/5 — Review

*2024-05-01, version 24.1.0.1*

It seems that since the two companies combined that the app is always behind when it comes to the weekend. It doesn’t show anything that you spend during the weekend until Monday.

### 5/5 — Banking

*2023-11-20, version 23.2.2.1*

I love 802, I have been a member for many years. I joined when it was called Vermont Teachers Credit Union.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2023-09-19, version 23.2.0.1*

Love how the app works! Fast and efficient!

### 4/5 — Works well

*2023-09-16, version 23.2.0.1*

For the most part it’s a great little app. It is a bit glitchy at times.

### 5/5 — Professional, helpful banking institution

*2023-09-10, version 23.2.0.1*

Whether in person, over the phone or through online banking, the staff at 802 Credit Union make this organization a welcoming place to bank. I appreciate all you do.

### 5/5 — Great bank!

*2023-09-07, version 23.2.0.1*

They are a really great help with all my financial needs!

### 1/5 — Service

*2026-08-04, version 26.1.402.1*

Need. Operations to follow up on requests! 2025 statements not done and cb cafe account hacked and new card not produced! Need bank manger at branch to get things done as before.

### 1/5 — Not happy with bank

*2026-08-02, version 26.1.402.1*

My husband and I are not happy with the way this bank works with taking 2-3 days to take out money then leaving us in the negative all the time

### 1/5 — The worst banking app

*2025-08-14, version 25.2.101.1*

Constantly getting locked out when I know my password and username are correct, have to jump through hoops to reset password. 
Does not update "due payments" correctly. It'll tell me I have a 0 balance due, I'll make what I think is an extra payment and then it'll update saying I owe a whole payments worth. 

I've actually considered switching banks / refinancing my loan elsewhere just because this app is SO FRUSTRATING!!!

### 1/5 — Crashes frequently

*2025-05-17, version 25.1.101.1*

Also digital deposit limit should be clearly stated instead of simply crashing if you try to deposit a greater amount.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-03-31*

After this update . It crashes when trying Mobil deposit

### 1/5 — Stealing money from me

*2024-08-01, version 24.4.0.1*

I discovered today that the 802 credit union has started taking a $10 monthly fee from my account. I was not informed that this would start and I had no idea that they were planning to take my money. This practice is unfair and unprecedented. If this practice isn’t rectified, I will have to close all my accounts at the 802 credit union and open a new account in a different credit union. I am beyond upset about this.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Horrible

*2022-06-07, version 10.6.0.2*

I am furious with this app. The formatting is confusing and glitchy. I’ve needed to change my password multiple times because it says I’m entering it wrong, even though I know I’m not. Back when it was River Valley Credit Union, I set up my checking account to opt out of overdraft protection so that my debit card would just get declined instead of me getting a huge overdraft fee. Now apparently that agreement is null and void. I was given no notice for the policy change and thus had no reason to think that there was any issue. Unfortunately, it seems I’ve now been charged a ridiculous amount of overdraft fees so now my account is hundreds of dollars in the negatives. Meanwhile, my card has been going through just fine while I make small purchases of less than $10. I am so upset. This is catastrophic and I can’t afford this. I just received several insufficient funds notices in the mail but until now, I never knew there was an issue. Terrible business and awful app.

### 2/5 — New look, zero upgrades

*2022-10-08, version 10.6.0.2*

I’m assuming that this bank has outsourced the app development to some sort of company that makes generic apps for banks, so I wonder if/when there will be any updates or if anyone will even look at these reviews and see that people aren’t happy with the app. In the off chance that a developer does read these reviews: 
 -The app looks more modern in the most basic sense, but icons and logos are blurry and the animations are choppy which makes it look cheap 
-The features of this app are exactly the same as the members advantage app, only look different. I would like to see more tangible ways to manage your money such as a way to designate money in your savings for different things and ways to automate transfers 
-Regarding the switch over, you changed my username and didn’t notify me about the change. Not cool. Took me over an hour to finally get logged on because I had to call in and find out my username was completely different. Not just modified, completely different… 
 I’m going to give this CU until the end of the year, and unless they really impress me with app improvements or any other improvements, I’m going to switch to Mascoma. (They have in house developers and a much better app)

### 2/5 — Change over

*2022-06-27, version 10.6.0.2*

Imagine a company buying out another company and then screwing everything up! Phone lines are always busy. The app consistently asks for your 3 questions to “log in” from your “personal” phone from this app!
802 Credit Union, you would be better off going back to River Valley Credit Union. At least they had their business in line and correct!
Buy the company and wait 6 months to update everything and transfer over. Then shut down every one’s account for an entire weekend, which is HIGHLY illegal! But it’s okay, “we’re updating our system”
I’m definitely going to switch my bank. I’m tired of this ongoing non stop problematic issue of not being available!

### 3/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-09-09, version 23.2.0.1*

The app keeps crashing and locking me out at the worst times when I’ve never changed my password…

### 5/5 — 802 CU

*2026-04-27, version 26.1.401.1*

You Guys are Amazing People, Very Friendly and Kind to Everyone even the 4 legged ones 😁

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2026-04-15, version 25.2.101.1*

Great bank, great app..all works as it should

### 5/5 — Happy

*2026-01-20, version 25.2.101.1*

Best credit union/bank ever!!!
Five dollars in a savings account to open an account! Low ,reasonable overdraft or opt out of overdrafting.
Yes I recommend.

### 5/5 — Way Better Than a Bank

*2025-10-29, version 25.2.101.1*

802 CU is a great organization to join. As a member of a credit union you become a part-owner. I’ve been a member since the 1990s, and they’ve treated me really well. Never any rip off like with a bank.

### 5/5 — Barbara Molnar

*2025-10-19, version 25.2.101.1*

I love this bank. Best customer service.

### 5/5 — 802

*2025-10-12, version 25.2.101.1*

It is the best…..50 year member!

### 5/5 — Online banking

*2025-06-18, version 25.1.101.1*

Easy to understand and to use

### 5/5 — Local credit union

*2024-12-06, version 24.8.0.1*

I feel so much more comfortable at 802CU than at a big bank… I do share an account at a “big bank” with my husband, but only because he shares one with me here at 802CU.  I just find it so much more accessible here. The bill pay features work for me, transferring funds is easy, and 802CU has features like Zelle and online loan applications… they keep up with modern banking needs while still maintaining a mom and pop feel.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2024-12-06, version 24.8.0.1*

This app is so easy and convenient to use! Highly recommend to all.

### 5/5 — Banking

*2024-12-04, version 24.8.0.1*

No issues here ! Easiest banking ever !
