I've been banking with Charter Oak Federal Credit Union since I was a kid. They always took the time to explain how to set up my accounts and manage my money. I remember us setting a budget together and them helping me stick to it! Not only are they helpful, but their customer service is top notched and their rates are unbeatable. I'm so glad that I chose Charter Oak Federal Credit Union for my banking needs!
