What are Members saying?

I joined members first 6 years ago after a bad experience with another bank and I have never had a problem. I recommend them to anyone looking to open an account, their customer service is always great.

I have been with Members 1st, since 1998. I have never had a bad experience with them. Everyone has always been helpful and polite anytime I have gone inside.

I’m not going to lie; my direct deposit pays me a day earlier at Member’s 1st.

I've banked with different banks and they say the right things to reel you in and then don't follow through. But Members 1st has been nothing but helpful and kind. They helped me understand credit and gave some very helpful advice.…Thank you for everything you do!

Our family has banked with Members 1st for many, many years. Customer service is #1. Love the smaller town vibe. You know your customers and that rates high in my book.

Does it cost anything to open an account?

You can open an account at Members 1st Credit Union for only $1. Since every member is a shareholder at Members 1st, your $1 minimum deposit acts as your share. This $1 deposit is NOT a fee, but cannot be drawn upon during your time of membership with Members 1st. If you ever wish to end your membership with Members 1st, the $1 share deposit will be reimbursed to you along with the remaining balance on your account.
