Fraud on my CC at my local CU

uggggggggggg.

 

Got a text at 2:30am in morning that my credit card was compromised, CU declined charges, and text back yes or no if this was me, and i text no.   My CU called me later a number i didnt recognize and i hung up, and called 1800 number CU I knew and waited 15 min to talk to CS, and she said your card is frozen, and i said i want to talk to Fraud Dept, and she said its a very long wait.   After waiting 41 minutes on hold i hung up phone and drove to my CU and closed credit card and the CU account.    Twice this has happened at this CU.   I am done with this CU.   

 

What is interesting is i dont carry that card nor do i use the card.  Last time i used it was about a year ago, and she said the CU is having lots of fraud issues.  

 

Wanted to share out.

Sorry to hear about your experience 
Helping the community with the name of the Credit Union would be helpful for others to potentially avoid.

Re: Fraud on my CC at my local CU

I had a similar problem with my local credit union... turned out to be a family member being creative... wasn't the credit unions fault.

 

Good luck!

Credit Union is Alaska USA Federal CU.    Closed checking a few years back, but kept savings as 1 of my older CC was with them.  

 

Going to attempt to open a savings account at BECU close by.
