Summit Credit Union Recognized As One Of America’s Best-in-state Credit Unions

July 24, 2023 Summit Credit Union has been recognized as one of America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions by Forbes magazine.  The magazine, in partnership with survey company, Statista, asked approximately 26,000 US consumers to rate credit unions where they have or previously had a checking or saving account. They rated the credit unions in six different areas around trust, terms & conditions, branch services, digital services, customer services and financial advice.  “We are thrilled to be recognized by Forbes as Best in State that includes branch service, digital service and financial advice,” said Summit CEO & President Kim Sponem. “Our award-winning financial wellness programs help people take control of their finances and secure a solid financial retirement, while reducing stress, making things easier with personal and online service and being there for our members when they need us.”   Large nationwide banks and credit unions with branches in more than 15 U.S. states—like Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Navy Federal Credit Union—were excluded so that the lists reflect the best of the smaller, regional institutions. Online reviews and ratings posted on Google Reviews between March 2020 and April 2023 were also evaluated for each credit union. These reviews and ratings accounted for 20% of the scoring, while the surveys accounted for 80%.  You might also be interested in Summit Credit Union helps Wisconsin families achieve homeownership with up to $10K in down payment assistance...
