If you want to know the truth about a company - Ask the members!

We did just that with our online member survey. Here’s what some of them had to say about their credit union:

On my loan that I got for my new van it as amazing how simple it was to do the application on line. The payment is deducted and I don't have to worry about going to make the payment. The ease of transferring from one account to another is a feature that I like. I can do this online and don't have to worry about it. - Brenda, Taylors, SC

The tellers at the Spartanburg branch helped me open accounts for both of my sons, so that they could start saving money. The kit they gave the kids made it seem like they were doing something 'grown-up’, and they really enjoyed getting their own account book to keep up with their deposits. - Alicia, Moore, SC

Everyone is so friendly and helpful at SC Telco. This was not the case where I banked at previously. SC Telco is a breath of fresh air. - Christian, Pacolet Mills, SC

I have had many wonderful experiences at SC Telco. The Greenville staff are super! They have helped me and guided me through some tough financial times. They treated me with respect and caring. I also think the phone staff in Greenville are very helpful and take time with you on the phone to address my needs. The office staff in Greenville know me by name, and my daughter's name. She always looks forward to going to the branch and saying ‘hi!’ I know when the time comes for her to start a checking account and get her first car, SC Telco will be there for her. (She's 12) I really love the fact that a Taylors branch opened. It has made my life easier. Thanks again SC Telco for all you offer and do. - Louise, Taylors, SC

I have been a member for well over 10 years. My finances have grown considerably over this period - but I must say that I have always been treated extremely well whether I was 'overdrawn' or ‘over-endowed.’ I have since moved to New Jersey, but will remain a member and actively do business with SC Telco because of the people. Whether I walked into the credit union or went through the drive thru window, I was always personally greeted. Everyone is so easy to work with. I can call up, leave a message and have a loan processed in a day. I do most of my banking via the internet which is fabulous and EASY to use. I greatly appreciate the warmth of the people and ease of doing business. - Susan, Princeton, NJ

SC Telco has always made the loan process easy for me. I am on a first name basis with my loan officer and I usually don't even need to come to the branch for approval. I bank at 4 different financial institutions, but always find myself calling SC Telco when I need a loan. Thanks for all you do. - Scott, Easley, SC

The people there are extremely friendly and make it a point to know me personally by name. That makes you feel better about who is working with your finances. - Jason, Florence, SC

Every time I come to the office in Columbia I am met by friendly, courteous people. Most of the time they even call me by name and ask about our family. We have been banking with SC Telco for over 30 years and would not think of changing. - Becky, Columbia, SC

I left 'big banks' because they were so impersonal and if you had a need, you had to call an 800 number and get recorded messages. I really appreciate that I can call and talk to a human being!! I was in California once and had a big problem. I had two accounts at the time and the 'big bank' could not be reached. At 4:55pm, I reached Telco and they helped me, otherwise I would have had no cash out in California. I also had a problem while away on business in Mississippi. I talked to my branch, with multiple calls back and they assisted me. I love the branch on Verdae! They know me and are so kind. I never had a bad experience. - Debra, Greenville, SC
