    If you are anyone in your immediate family have military service then I suggest you signup with a military related credit union like Navy Federal. No ATM fees, no monthly fees with a modest minimum balance and if ever needed one of the better interest rates on car or personal loans you will find.

    This particular credit union may be worth looking into.

    It seems like a very decent place that you could set up your direct deposit for your paycheck, possibly applying for their credit card, along with any other type of financial services that you may need in the future.

    Security Service Federal Credit Union


    Security Service Federal Credit Union - Wikipedia

    Security Service Federal Credit Union (SSFCU) is a credit union headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, federally chartered and federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). With more than $10.5 billion in assets, Security Service serves more than 800,000 members, and operates 66 locations throughout Texas, Colorado and Utah. Security Service is the largest credit union in San Antonio, Texas, and is among the largest credit unions in the United States. The credit union provides access to more than 5,000 credit union locations nationwide through the CU Service Centers shared branching network.

    History
    Established in 1956 as the United States Air Force Security Service Federal Credit Union, the credit union first opened its doors at Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, with just eight members and $25 in deposits. In 1968, the board of directors voted to shorten the credit union’s name to Security Service Federal Credit Union.

    Security Service Federal Credit Union was founded as a not-for-profit, member-owned financial cooperative to serve the fiscal needs of the members and families of the U.S. Air Force Security Service Command. The credit union has since expanded its charter to include more than 2,600 ways to qualify for membership. Headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, Security Service offers a full suite of traditional financial products and services.

    Corporate headquarters
    Security Service Federal Credit Union opened its first corporate headquarters in San Antonio at Hwy 90. Headquarters were then moved in 2001 to a new 128,000 sq. ft. facility located on La Cantera Parkway in San Antonio. Due to continued growth and expansion, Security Service relocated its corporate offices to a new campus located at 15000 IH-10 West in San Antonio, which houses more than 700 employees and offers operations and amenities buildings.

    Mergers and acquisitions
    Initiated by other credit unions and the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), mergers and acquisitions have assisted in the expansion of the Security Service Federal Credit Union field of membership. These mergers are also responsible for the credit union’s entry into the Colorado and Utah markets. A merger with the Fort Carson Federal Credit Union in 1980 brought Security Service to Colorado Springs, Colorado. In December 2010, the NCUA approved the credit union’s offer to assume Salt Lake City's Beehive Credit Union's assets, making its first presence in the cities of Salt Lake City, Provo, Riverton, Sandy, South Jordan and St. George, Utah. Since 1974, Security Service has merged and acquired 21 credit unions located in Texas, Colorado and Utah.

    Membership
    Security Service Federal Credit Union offers more than 2,600 ways to qualify for membership. Through various fields of membership, individuals who live, work, worship, attend school, volunteer, or have a business located in Texas, Colorado or Utah may qualify for membership. Individuals living in other states may qualify for membership through approved Texas and Colorado consumer councils. Additionally, a family or household member of an existing member may also qualify for membership.

    Products and services
    Security Service Federal Credit Union offers financial service, support and products to its members. Products and services that are offered include online and mobile banking, checking and savings accounts, consumer loans, mortgage loans, credit cards, investments, insurance and title services. Other services include shared banking and nationwide ATMs.

    It depends what you need from a bank.
    If you want to withdraw cash from an ATM then look for a bank that reimburses ATM fees like Charles Schwab.
    If you need to walk in and talk to a clerk them one of the big once B of A or Chase.
    If you just use your debit/credit card for purchases and occasional cash back from Walmart then it doesn’t matter where you bank.
    So if you need better answers just let us know what you need from a bank.
