The app works well and is generally not glitchy.

However, the Zelle feature is often buggy and the daily/weekly/monthly limits using Zelle are way to low.

### 5/5 — Community service

*2025-11-26, version 4017.2.0*

I often visit credit union on a regular basis and each time I go I’m always met with a very pleasant staff and Service. Often I take my dog with me RUDY and she is also welcome inside the establishment with a warm greeting and an occasional dog treat. These services make our visit that much more welcoming and also behind the counter, Service, cash and checks drawing money. Or getting some advice on investing money is always a great place and a reliable source.

### 5/5 — MSO

*2025-11-20, version 4017.2.0*

Our experience was really pleasant. Since the beginning until the end. Cristina was very helpful and easy to talk to. We even talked about where I served in the Navy. I will definitely keep coming back if I need help with anything else. The wait was not long at all either so that was a huge plus. Thank you for such a wonderful experience Cristina.

### 5/5 — Awesome!! Highly recommended

*2026-02-21, version 4019.1.0*

I’ve been with the credit union since 2022 after the took over the previous credit union California Bear. Since then, they’ve come through tremendously! I went through their auto loan and was recommended that I use their auto broker. I told them the type of car I was looking for, how much I wanted to pay a month and they did not disappoint! Leo ( the auto broke found me a car that was newer than I thought I could afford for cheaper than what I was approved for. He took care of the sales, tax and licensing, filled out and submitted my DMV paperwork and delivered the car to me. 
Later, I needed a personal loan for an emergency, after a year I was able to consolidate my loan as well as pay off my other bills. All of this while helping me build up my credit. They gave me options financially that would help me as I am a single parent and budgeting is a must. The best part is that the monthly auto payments are direct out of my checking account through payroll so I don’t have to transfer money to pay multiple payments. This credit union is a God sent gift. My credit score went from poor to almost excellent in 2 years time! I’m never going to a regular bank  ever again. Their rates and finance charges beat the lowest banks by far! I highly recommend. Next on my agenda is to get a certificate that pays top notch percentage! 
Thank you for allowing me to live stress free financially! Now, I can focus on traveling and getting that promotion!
