Scores of US credit unions offline after ransomware infects backend cloud outfit::Supply chain attacks: The gift that keeps on giving
Uggh, kills me to see any company paying so little attention to security to let this happen.
Mine appears to be down. First Service CU
Interesting. There was a social media campaign going around to exit bank recently. I don’t know and won’t assert connection, but it makes me curious.
Why fuck yeah? Credit Unions aren’t banks. They are owned by the members who keep their money there. This isn’t, “Big bad corpo gets a black eye.” This is “People trying to have a bit more control over their money get fucked over once again.”

I wouldn’t notice the difference with my credit union. They’re app/website barely works when they aren’t being attacked.

Swipe typing and not proof reading. I swear Gboard never uses the correct form.

That/lack of Mint.com integration (RIP) is what’s kept me from switching away from my “giant monster mega bank” all these years.

Good news! They’re killing Mint.com so your problem will be solved for you shortly.

That’s one of the side effects of all the bank acquisitions and mergers and consolidations. National banks have so much more money to invest in things like Mint/plaid integrations, live fraud monitoring (vs daily fraud monitoring), etc.
Hell, I can’t even get free checks from my credit union anymore.
And it doesn’t help that banks have lobbied to keep credit unions from merging outside of their immediate service areas.

Nothing would keep me from leaving Gint Monster Mega Bank.

Not a credit union, but the PNC app barely works either. Sometimes it takes me 4 attempts to successfully log on because the app crashes during sign-on.
