Customer service​

The customer service department at USAA is responsible for a wide range of financial services for its membership, which currently stands at over 12 million people. Despite the company's claim on its website that it strives for high levels of customer satisfaction, some clients claim they have trouble reaching a live person. You should be ready to explain your situation and keep pertinent information close at hand if you encounter such issues.

Most common financial services problems can be handled by USAA's customer service team over the phone. Questions about membership, payment due dates, fraud, and identity theft are included. It can also aid in the settlement of insurance claims. However, occasionally you might have to go to a workplace or mail in original paperwork.

Rates​

USAA offers a number of different accounts, including a savings and checking account. USAA also offers a number of different CDs. While these are not as competitive as those offered by traditional brick-and-mortar banks, some do offer higher rates than those offered by online banks. You can also find credit cards and real estate options through USAA.

While some insurers might offer better rates, USAA's rate increases have been relatively steady since 2015. The company's outstanding performance has resulted in a strong growth rate and a low cost structure. A good rate means that the company is likely to make its payments. Despite this, USAA has had a difficult time managing its financial situation, which has caused some problems.
