    HORRIBLE SERVICE. My son's campus checking account was hacked and over $9000 was stolen. Fraud department was impossible to reach and we waited on phone several days for over 2 hours at a time. They took our information for their "investigation." They never returned our calls or messages for months. Finally notified us after about 6 months we are responsible for this hack- we had nothing to do with this. They won't even release any information regarding "investigation" without a subpoena- thus we are having our lawyer send them one so we can fight this. DO NOT USE NAVY FEDERAL!!!!!!
