Sensible Checking Account

I keep this account for several reasons, the main one is when I return to LaPorte and Indiana, I have easy access to accounts. This is my spare account and have been pleased with the one on one business transactions I have enjoyed for the past 10 years.

I feel Purdue Federal has very good Checking Account and debit card transactions. It has always gone off without any glitches. I don't have to keep a minimum balance in my account;  I'm able to use it to the last dime.  I don't have to have overdraft protection with Purdue Federal's Checking Account whereby they could put me on that and charge me interest without my say so.

Always easy to work with, never had any problems.

My Checking is simple and easy and FREE. Any time I have a question about my account, the staff is always helpful. I'm very happy with my Checking.

I absolutely love my free Checking/Debit Account. The best part of it for my husband and I is that we can get a new card on the spot if we ever needed to. We have used this as a selling point to many of our friends who were unhappy with financial institutions they were working with who had long waiting periods and fees on top of that.

No fees and no problems since I received the card 5 years ago.

I wish they wouldn't treat you like you're second class when you have a problem with your card.

I love my free Checking and Savings! Also, I love that I can transfer between accounts as often as I want without being charged!!

I have been a member for roughly 15 years and have loved the Checking and Debit Card services. PEFCU was an early adopter of many paperless services and I have used them all from the beginning. I have not written a check for about 13 years and it has been wonderful to have things automatically paid and deposited. When I need help from a PEFCU staff member they have always been friendly and professional.

I'd like to find out the formal procedure to terminate my account with PEFCU - once I pay my credit card debt, which will happen in a few days.The reason for my decision is your incompetence in judging a customer's value who has not missed a bill once in the past 6 years and you're letting him down when he needed you only once in those 6 years.  I have been recently declined a credit limit increase, because I was profiled as a student.

Best Checking Account out there!  I do not live in the Lafayette area anymore, but I can still bank here 24/7. Through the amazing features on smartphones and online, I can stay connected and pay bills.  I can also search local credit unions on my phone that I can use to do face-to-face transactions when needed.  And who can pass up the rewards earned just by using your debit card as credit?!

I will never bank anywhere else if I can help it!  Been with Purdue for 20 years and have had very few problems and those were resolved quickly.  We have lived all over the US and the world and have kept our money at Purdue. We use all paperless functions, Online Bill Pay etc.  Love everything about it!  Even though my card doesn't work sometimes, it's because of the wonderful fraud protection in place! Love PEFCU!

I would like to compliment Purdue Federal for the service that they gave me during the 8 years that I was in business for my Checking needs.  The personnel were always friendly and professional.  

I highly recommend Purdue Fed's Sensible Free Checking. No hidden fees, great customer service.

I want to thank Felisha Clifton, who is a Member Consultant so much for her cooperation and real interest to make everything easy for me today in order to get my credit card. I really appreciate that.

Purdue Federal is not what it was. First, several credit unions and even banks in the greater Indy area are paying 4-5% on checking and savings accounts while PEFCU pays almost nothing. Second the automatic transfers system fails regularly resulting in work to reverse late payments that should have never happened. I was the fool for continuing to let PEFCU have any of my money.
