We all agree – banking at a UECU is awesome, (the bomb)! The staff at UECU is friendly and personable. They offer every financial product and service we need so that we can do all of our banking at one place. Best of all, they take the time to answer all of our questions about managing money. They make you feel like a name, not a number.

UECU treats you like family! The staff is always so friendly and great to work with. In addition to great service, I don't get 'nickeled and dimed' by excessive service fees. As treasurer for the Anoka Hennepin Education Minnesota, these are one of the many reasons we do business with United Educators Credit Union.

We are both bus drivers and joined United Educators Credit Union 2 years ago. We love going to the Apple Valley branch, where they greet us by name. It was important to us to find a credit union that served all school employees including teachers, food service staff, paraprofessionals, custodians and bus drivers! We were also looking for a financial institution that didn't have excessive fees and provided friendly, personal service. We found all of this at UECU, and more!

Our daughters are at the perfect age to learn the concept of 'Save, Share, Spend'. We started savings accounts for them when they were babies. As they got older, we taught them the value of saving for the special things they wanted. We are so excited to add the sharing concept to their financial literacy background. As a family, we plan to identify a local charity that we can 'share' our resources.

Being teachers we were looking for a credit union that focused on educators. The first time we walked in the doors we found a friendly, welcoming staff! Our questions no matter how big or small have been answered in a timely manner. They look out for their members and will contact you if they find any discrepancy in the accounts. Through the years we have been very happy with the service at UECU. We wouldn't bank at any other place!

I am strongly in favor of teaching financial literacy in my classroom. It is important for my students to understand the basic fundamentals of sound money management prior to graduating. The hands on approach that I've utilized provides them with practical, 'real life' experiences, that I believe will benefit them later on. The impact of teaching financial literacy to youth has far reaching consequences beyond the classroom.
