Comparison to Traditional Banks
Wondering how credit unions stack up against banks? Let’s take a look at the key differences between WyHy and traditional banks:
- Credit Unions vs. Banks: Ownership Differences: WyHy is owned by its members, so profits go back to you in the form of better rates and services. Banks, on the other hand, are owned by stockholders.
- Fees: WyHy offers lower fees for services like checking accounts and ATM withdrawals compared to traditional banks, which often charge higher fees.
- Customer Service: With WyHy, you’ll experience more attentive and personalized customer service, something big banks can’t match.
- Support for Local Communities: At WyHy, we are dedicated to supporting local communities with charitable efforts, financial education, and partnerships, unlike large banks focused on profits.
