    What could be improved about this bank / credit union?: The interface online is slow. Registration experience was garbage and didn't work well. E-transfers don't auto-deposit to the destination account even if recipient has already set it up...

    General comments: Usability is clunky but it works. I like how you transfer funds on the home page, which makes all your day to day banking on that one page. That is the best thing about the interface imo. No need to move to a new page to send money.

    General comments: failed Equifax report - questions like 'you may have a mortgage loan'...does this mean line of credit secured by house? next question: ' you may have account/credit card with opened in 2014'...really? no way to challenge questions - Equifax 'personal credit file (which I have here) does not ID these lenders, dates etc. Going to avoid until I can speak to a real person.
