I never dread going to Raiz Credit Union to take care of business; the lobby is so welcoming, even offering drinks and snacks, and the wait period is always minimal. Their service is excellent; every issue I have ever had has been resolved quite quickly and in my favor. I have been a client for over thirty years and I have always been a satisfied customer.

Have been with the credit union for 30 years. Still satisfied with their service. Outstanding, everyone is so helpful. I would recommend them to anyone that needs a Credit Union.

Raiz is a great place to have all of your financial needs met. Joe Battle is my closest and favorite branch, but they are all great with excellent member service. Love my Credit Union and the innovation they are bringing to El Paso with new financial capabilities!
