ithinkfi Customer Service Hours

When to reach a human: phone hours, branch schedules, holiday closures, and the channels that never close.

The Credit Union Essentials

Phone hours

Phone support runs 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM ET, Monday through Saturday, at (800) 873-5100.

Wait times average 4 minutes, with the busiest windows on Monday mornings and after 5:00 PM. Calling midweek before noon usually means a shorter queue.

Sunday phone service is closed; digital channels and the FAQ pages cover those hours.

Branch hours

Lobby hours run Monday through Saturday, typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with drive-up lanes opening an hour earlier.

Holiday closures

Branches and phone support close on federal holidays; the closure calendar is published 30 days ahead in the portal.

Digital banking and ATMs keep running through every holiday. Wire cutoffs on closure days move to the previous business day.

The 2026 calendar follows the standard federal holiday schedule with no credit-union-specific additions.

These hours do NOT apply to the mortgage servicing desk, which operates 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET Monday through Friday.

The 24/7 channel

Self-service resolves 68% of member issues without a human, at any hour.

Password resets, card freezes, transfers, and bill pay all run through the portal and app around the clock. The FAQ library answers the most frequent questions without waiting.

Initially we assumed night hours would flood the morning phone queue but found self-service absorbed most overnight needs.

When to wait for a human

Escalate to a human for wire errors, fraud reports, and missing deposits; self-service cannot reverse transfers.

Those three categories recover 2.4x faster when escalated immediately, per our 2024 support data. Everything else usually resolves faster through self-service.

The data does not cover legal requests like subpoenas, which follow a written process.

I called at 8:02 AM on a Tuesday and spoke to a human at 8:04. That has literally never happened at my old bank.

The holiday calendar saved our payroll run. We moved the wire cutoff a day early and nothing bounced.
