How are credit unions different from other banks?
Credit unions are different from banks in how they handle your money and the services they provided for their customers. Credit unions are smaller, locally run and managed, and have really solid customer service. Most credit unions offer savings accounts with "passport" type kits. Each time you deposit money, they make a note in your "passport".
What types of credit unions are there?
