Langley FCU..What a joke!!!

Applied for membership yesterday, got thru verification no problem, uploaded my DL this morning per their request, said I was approved for membership, and Id get my member # shortly via email...I waited and waited, no email.  Called, and the lady said..." well, it looks like you were declined afterall" Im like...excuse me? the reason????..................." looks like the computer denied you because your address exceeds 30 characters".  WTH??? I have NO control over the name of  my address, and I told her I abreviated parkway on my app to "pkwy", and  even with the street number, name, and all spaces included, it equals 30 characters!! 

 

She said, we can approve it manually when this happens, but its gonna take probably a week because we have several apps in front of you.  I opted to forget the whole thing and told her Ive NEVER in my life heard of being declined because my street address name is too long, thats almost borderline discrimination...jeeeeezzzz. I told her to forget it, I wanted my $$ refunded, and I wanted any HP taken reversed. 

 

Thats like saying..I cant date you because youre only 5'8'.  Well, that man or woman may be a wonderful person, attractive etc and had no control over how tall they grew, or didnt grow, but declined for dating because that person doesnt fall within the personal "height" requirement for them .  Im like over it...all of this.

@Pizza1,

 

That is certainly a joke decision by the computer thus this -"looks like the computer denied you because your address exceeds 30 characters".  Sorry to hear but I'd move on and not look back..

I guess Langley is not a CU with residents in Hawaii in mind - with street names like Hale Hō‘ike‘ike o Kamehameha, it'd probably crash their server. Smiley Very Happy

Wow!   Of all the lame reason to reject a membership.    This is very poor programming indeed to limit an address to 30 characters to begin with.     I wonder what happens if someone nice long last name that contains every letter and vowell in the alphabet applies.   Are they rejected for a name over 30 characters?       They need better IT programming or another software product!!!!   

 

This a bummer Pizza!.   So Sorry!
