Poor experience
I completed the application online. The initial response was that i would get a follow up phone call. That did not happen. I received an email asking me to log in. I have not received any paperwork in the mail. I do not have any information about my account. Overall the experience has been poor.

App is terrible
I’ve called the FAIRWINDS help line many times and had my username and password reset and still have not been able to access my account since the day I opened it. Not impressed.

Great customer service
I've been having a lot of issues with my account because of a scamming incident a few months ago, but everyone at Fairwinds that I have called for help have been extremely nice and helpful.

So Many Benefits
I joined Fairwinds Bank and opened a UCF Student Checking Account.
I like the fact that it's so convient that I can get to the bank right on campus, and I can also connect my UCF ID to my account. If I want to pay for items and services with my student ID instead of having to pull out my new debit card each time.
Plus, I can not only use the Fairwinds ATMs around campus, but the Presto! ATMs at Publix to make withdraws and deposits without any charges, and since there are a few Publix near me it works out great.
I'm glad I decided to open an account, and I look forward to seeing what else they can do for college students.
