### 2/5 — Huh

*2025-08-11*

Too long trying to find my own account info then you’re buzzed around online for too long for a AI computer response

### 5/5 — The Central Credit Union of Illinois

*2023-07-23*

I have been with this Crefit Union since I was 26 when I first joined the Credit Union approximately 35 years ago. I was first with the Bellwood Office, now the Orland Park office.Both facilities have been a pleasure to work with. The employees are helpful, knowledgeable, polite and customer friendly. It has been more like a family environment that assist you in making better financial decisions. I will be a customer for more years to come.

### 4/5 — I wish we had photo check deposit

*2017-12-04*

The app runs great. The only beef I have with it is we can not deposit checks with a photo. Work on that please. It would be so convenient to not to have to go to the actual credit union.

### 5/5 — Love It

*2017-01-05*

I love my credit union and now I love this app. It took a long time coming, but it was worth it. App works great.
