Best Financial Institution: Conexus Credit Union
At Conexus Credit Union they care about their members and they strive to be Saskatchewan’s financial services provider of choice.
With more than 40 locations across the province, 900 employees, and approximately 116,000 members, Conexus is Saskatchewan’s largest credit union and the 6th largest in Canada.
“Our members are our shareholders,” said Brent Smith, branch manager at Prince Albert’s South Hill Conexus Credit Union. “We truly care about the members we serve and we want to see them financially secure.”
At Conexus they reward their members. In 2014, Conexus launched their FreeStyle No-Fee Account. This is a personal chequing account with zero strings attached. That means it has zero fees – no service, processing, monthly, recurring or convenience fees. There is no minimum balance required and they will not charge monthly fees no matter how much or little is kept in the account. There is also no multi product requirements involved meaning you are not required to get a credit card or a mortgage or anything else to open the account. It’s really that simple. On average, the FreeStyle No-Fee Account will save members approximately $185 dollars a year in bank fees.
