The service on the credit card is great, just like every other service the Purdue Federal Credit Union provides. I've walked into a branch and walked out with a new card 5 minutes later. The branch staff and call center staff are always helpful, and I always feel like I'm important to them.

A great beginner card for college students looking to build credit history, while gaining rewards! The staff was great during the application process and I've had nothing but positive experiences ever since. No complaints, no hidden fees, and they've gained a lifelong member.
