I opened a new account with a check from the Credit Union I belonged to in Indiana. I was told it would take a couple of days before I would have access to the funds, I was not told there would be a 7 day wait for access. The check was withdrawn from my Credit Union the day after it was written, yet I was required to wait 6 more days to have access to the funds.
Response from Desert Financial Credit UnionJun 20, 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience, and we apologize for any confusion or frustration caused by the delay in accessing your funds. While check holds can vary, they are sometimes extended based on factors such as the type of check, the institution it’s drawn from, and the amount. These holds are in place to protect both our members and the credit union from potential fraud or returned items. That said, we understand how important clear communication is, and we’re sorry if the full hold time wasn’t explained up front. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve how we set expectations for new members. If you’d like to discuss the specifics of your account further, we’d be happy to assist—please don’t hesitate to reach out at 602-433-7000.
