      Elevations opts to make money from its contract with ***************************, a check-order company, rather than taking care of its members. *************************** is impossible to contact, has no posted way to return a product they sent without my ordering it, and charges ridiculous amounts for checks plus a non-negotiable $21.99 delivery charge. Ridiculous. If you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. Watch how fast members will find another way to order checks.

      Elevations does not provide phone service at their branches. You have to call the only number they give and you get put in line with all the other people that can't call their branch. As soon as my loan is paid off, I'm never using Elevations CC again!

      To Whom It May ********* have loan on property in ****, ** with Elevations Credit Union. Upon taking the loan, Elevations charged me ************************** due to the *** in excess of 80%. However, over the past 36 months since I've had the loan, property values have appreciated. Currently, a conservative estimate of my property value is $800,000 with the principal balance of $557,432 (less than 70% loan to value) For the past 12 months, I have asked Elevations to remove the *** ($167/mo) due to the appreciation and resulting change in loan to value. Elevations caught me in a technicality, saying that I have a delinquent payment in the last 12 months. While technically correct, the "delinquent payment" was due to a change in escrow value which I did not update as of June of last year. I did pay the mortgage, but b/c of the change in escrow value, they did not credit the payment as I was approximately $25 short. I have called multiple times, to which Elevations claim they will look into this due to my credit rating (800+) and the unique nature of this "delinquent" payment. Each and every time, I get a form letter stating that due to the "delinquent" payment, I am not eligible. After calling this morning, I was once again told that I am not eligible until September '23. I find this wholly unacceptable. In a world where ***** continuously make egregious errors in practice, how is it possible, that a hard-working, bill-paying ******** is allowed to be gouged out of $2000 per year? The cynic would say that Elevations Credit Union realizes that I have a loan at 3.5% and they realize they are losing money, so they attempt to recoup with erroneous charges and fees that are unjust.I would appreciate a response at your earliest convenience.Regards,*******************

      I am rejecting this response because it doesn't appear to be a response, rather directing me to complain to someone else.  Does the BBB have any reporting capabilities with Elevation Credit Union?  If not, what is the best place to file a complaint, per their automated response?
