I’m not an actual member here, but I do go to this location pretty frequently to conduct shared-branch transactions since this location is listed as a shared branch. My favorite employees here would probably be Denise & Yazmin, since I interact with them every time I go here and they’re pleasant every time!
Anyway, the process for shared branching transactions is pretty easy. They basically have these little slips called “transaction request forms” in the slots on the tables next to the main entrance. You fill it out with your credit union’s name, your name, your member number, the account

Worst experience as an customer of this bank for over a decade. They didn’t communicate with me when they had fraud activity on a card, they immediately closed it without my knowledge and said they sent a new card that I never received nor did I received a letter in the mail.
I had to talk to multiple people and it still was not resolved by anyone. Now I have to go in to the main branch just to be able to get a new debit card and have any access to any of my funds.
They will waste your time, make you not able to pay necessary bills, completely send you jumping through hoops with so solutions

They have changed bank hours due to Covid. That part is understandable. What is not understandable is that their hours are now 10am to 4pm Monday thru Friday and closed Saturday.
News flash, all of the Meriwest customers are not old and retired or out of work. There are still many of us that have to work those hours. All of the other banks have modified their hours as well, but still made them reasonable.
Since I now have to take time off of work to go to a branch, I will also be withdrawing all of my money from your bank.

After being a member for close to thirty years I reached out to meriwest to refinance two mortgages. When I got connected with a mortgage broker I was very prompt with all of my responses and could not get him to reply or pick up his phone. Very disappointing experience.
Edit: he did eventually reply 4 days later after I posted this. But in a competitive situation that is still unacceptable.

Many years ago, Meriwest was one of the Premier So. Bay Area Credit Unions. Sadly, times have changed. Customer Service has gone out the window. Constant, repetitive issues with our address being changed without our request, permission or approval. Debit cards being shut off due to fraudulent activity without any communication to the account holder. Check deposit issues. ATM issues. The list goes on and on. Beware, and consider investigating other Credit Union options before proceeding with Meriwest. I'm finally at the point where the convenience of this bank is not worth the hassles. I'm ready

Recently ref-financed my home loan with Meriwest, their application process was clear, sample & fast. I worked with their mortgage loan consultant- Curtis Linville, he was very helpful, proactively informed me on the loan application/approval progress. Compared to my experience dealing with BoA - Meriwest offered better rate, much better customer service.
I would recommend to my friends to switch from traditional bank to Meriwest Credit Union.
