November 5th is bank transfer day, and people are switching out of banks and into credit unions for the reasons stated in this video.

Why pay to have access to your own money? Credit unions don’t believe that, and neither should you.

I have been a very happy member of a credit union since I was twelve years old and even moving to a different country has only seen me more impressed with their level of service.

I know that just switching your account isn’t easy.

But if you can’t switch to a credit union, perhaps try to switch to a different type of account that involves fewer fees.
