I can't believe this is one of the many times my account was hit with a overdraft fee. I been with riverset credit union for nearly ten years and yet I'm still not satisfied on how they robbed me blind. I have monies in different accounts and yet my checking account was empty. They charged me a 30 dollar over draft fee because my account wasn't set up for an automatic transfer from one account to another, which you can't do on the internet and have to call in about. In order for the automatic account transfer they still charge you 7 dollars if they have to go into your savings or summer account. I'm just in disbelief how corrupt they have become. Your just a number here now and not a member. Future on-lookers please shop around before settling with them. I am now currently shopping for a new small bank because I want to be heard and not handled like another number. I can't believe how low they can be also watch out because they force you to sign-up for services or they will charge your account. Will they give you any notice, yes once they ransacked your account dry. It's easy for them to apply an overdraft fee or any fee to your accounts, but to reverse it is trying to figure out a Rubik's cube. I'm really upset because I enjoyed my time here with them and some of the staff are helpful. Overall they need to scrap their current management and board members to be able to get back what they indeed stand for and that's a member's bank, not a number's bank. Also to get in touch with them again is like trying to get in touch with Aliens in space. ...read more

With the influx of new grocery stores to the greater Pittsburgh region, I often overlook the East End Food Co-Op. Whenever I go back there, I always regret not having gone sooner! Although smaller than rival stores like Whole Foods or Trader Joes, the Co-Op has a couple features that set it apart from its competitors. Obviously, because it's a co-op, it's much easier for a customer to feel an authentic ""buy in"" to the shopping experience -- it's easy to believe that money spent there supports a vision of a local, community-based food system. Also, the bulk section selection easily beats other stores in the city. Although the Co-Op doesn't have as much shelf space, as long as it fills this bulk niche, I will make it a point to keep coming back! ...read more

Are there not enough carriers to deliver mail on all of the routes? I know of quite a few people that need jobs if you would like me to find able bodied mail carriers. I would appreciate a response to this review. I am expecting this matter to get resolved as quickly as possible and i expect mail at my address 1030 buente street pgh. pa. 15212this wed september8 2010 ...read more

I moved to pittsburgh for graduate school, and i was told by many people that PNC was my best bet. however, when i found out that northwest savings had a branch just down the street from my apartment, i decided to check them out. after an initial meeting with a banker, it was clear to me that this mid-market bank was the one for me. the tellers are always nothing but polite and helpful, their online banking is supremely easy to use, and their helpline is efficient. they even went as far as to send me a personalized thank you for starting an account with them. additionally, they're members in a group of banks who do not charge additional fees on many of the ATMs around pittsburgh! in a world where more and more processes are impersonal and computerized, northwest savings stands out because of it's superb service, and humanity. I highly recommend this bank! ...read more

Credit Union told us they could give us pay day loans at 0% interest until the Commonwealth of PA Budget was passed. Received one pay day loan and then we were told that the money ran out! Would not recommend this credit union to anyone! ...read more
