Broader than a brand, but I think it fits here...
Everyone hates banks. Credit Unions are better in every possible way.
Might depend on the country though. I grew up where credit unions were really common and just assumed they were the best. I had to switch to something else cause I moved across the country and my credit union was only on western Canada. While shopping around, I realized that the big Canadian banks were offering way more than my credit union ever was. Plus their website actually felt modern.
Well one disadvantage of credit unions is that you might not be able to get a debit card. Loan interest is usually way better though.
Huh? I've used 4 different credit unions, and I never heard of being unable to get a debit card.
