Comparison to Traditional Banks
Wondering how credit unions stack up against banks? Let’s take a look at the key differences between WyHy and traditional banks:
- Ownership Structure: WyHy is owned by its members, so profits go back to you in the form of better rates and services. Banks, on the other hand, are owned by stockholders.
- Fee Comparison: Credit unions tend to have lower fees for services like checking accounts, ATM withdrawals, and overdrafts, while banks may charge higher fees and penalties.
- Customer Service: Credit unions typically provide more personalized customer service, focusing on building long-term relationships with members. Banks, on the other hand, can be more transactional in nature due to their size and business model.
- Community Involvement: WyHy is committed to making a difference in our local community through various charitable initiatives, something larger banks may not prioritize.
