Your Best Financial Year With A Delaware Credit Union

The beautiful thing about a credit union is the spirit of local empowerment. Without the large centralized banking structure of corporate banks, a credit union depends more on the satisfaction of its members. At a credit union, members are owners, and the perks are plentiful!

Expect enriching (and free) financial literacy courses, superior in-person customer service, and less pesky fees and account charges as a Delaware credit union member. These and more are great reasons to switch to a credit union this year! 

Get An Attentive, In-Person Banking Experience

There’s nothing worse than calling your bank and waiting in an impersonal call-center queue. Why not try something else and join the local movement? According to Consumer Reports, credit unions achieve a 96% satisfaction rate when members are asked about their credit union’s customer service.  

A lot of this is about accessibility. With a local credit union, walk into a branch in person and get that attentive, one-on-one personalized service you are missing with a larger national bank. It’s as simple as eye contact, a smile, and the satisfaction of getting to know the needs of each community member. 

Your Money Going To A Good Cause

Part of what makes credit unions so great is participating in the fabric of your community.  Suppose a bank runs by corporate decision-makers who live thousands of miles away. In that case, it’s easy for a bank to lose sight of what community members need. 

At DEXSTA, our deepest values align with people helping people. That’s why we sponsor organizations like the Boys and Girls Club, the Sunday Breakfast Mission, and the Ronald McDonald House. Our members love to know that we invest time and money back into the places where they live and work.

Harnessing the power of financial literacy means members can plan for their financial futures and avoid the common pitfalls of bad offers or money mismanagement.
