Well let's see... until you try to use the chargeback service they claim to provide, you won't realize how much they couldn't care less in assisting a valid dispute where I ordered 4 chairs online from LOWES.com and only received 2 chairs. I have been trying to resolve with LOWES and now with the AE FCU Visa Chargeback services since July 1 (almost 2 months ago) they keep closing the issue saying, we never received any documentation (well I faxed it 2x and snail Mailed 1x), or now the issue is that too much time has gone by... NO KIDDING? WHOSE FAULT IS THAT? I've been calling every week for a status... Can't speak to the group that actually handles the issue.

I initially applied for pre-approval over the phone. The fee was $95, and they approved me in less than five minutes. Going from that point they kept me well informed throughout the process and it only took three weeks from having a home sales contract to closing. The only thing I didn't like was the Banks attorney. Since I, as the mortgage holder, had to also pay for the Banks attorney, I felt I should have received better service. I think the Banks attorney was playing games with the title insurance cost and the "good faith closing cost estimate" wasn't in such good faith from a title insurance perspective, but I am blaming this on the attorney. I think the credit union should keep a much closer reign on the attorneys that it contracts these closing to. Other than that the closing costs were very low. I am rating the quality of work as a 'B' because they should control their contract attorneys more closely.
