I had a great experience with Brenda refinancing my auto loan. She was quick to answer my calls and got me set up with a great interest rate. The whole process was smooth and she got everything done for me as soon as I sent over my Documents. Sam the manager even reached out to make sure I was being taken care of. I highly recommend REV!
☆☆☆☆☆This is my second loan from REV. Brian and D from the Summerville, SC branch were simply amazing in the loan process, a breeze to work with and made it happen for our family. They have a great team, with great interest rates and really care about what it is you are needing.
☆☆☆☆☆I want to share my appreciation and gratitude to REV Federal Credit Union. They have always been there for me whenever I needed them. I especially want to give a SPECIAL SHOUT OUT TO Brenda Y. in the Loan Department. Her empathy and compassion towards me make me feel like I am part of her family. She is an asset to REV Federal Credit Union! Thank you, Brenda, for all you do for the members! Your hard work does not go unnoticed.
