Frontwave named Morongo Basin’s Best Bank for third straight year

OCEANSIDE, CA (November 9, 2022) — Frontwave Credit Union has been named the Best Bank in the Morongo Basin by Hi-Desert Publishing Company’s 2022 Best of the Best Readers’ Choice Awards.

For the past 10 years, Hi-Desert Publishing has asked its readers in Morongo Valley, Yucca Valley, Joshua Tree, and Twentynine Palms to help crown local businesses as the “best of the best.” Members of the community vote for their favorite local businesses and service providers in over 75 categories, and thousands of votes were cast in this year’s two-month-long contest.

Frontwave’s steadfast commitment to providing great service and helping Members realize their financial dreams was applauded by members of the Morongo Basin community, who selected it as the area’s Best Bank for the third straight year, beating out competitors like Chase and Wells Fargo.

“Winning this distinction for the third year in a row is such a tremendous honor and a testament that we’re delivering on our vision to be the best place our Members have ever banked,” said Bill Birnie, President/CEO for Frontwave Credit Union. “I could not be more proud of our Frontwave Dream Makers who help us stand out in the marketplace like this by delivering exceptional experiences for our Members in every way they choose to bank with us — in our branches, over the phone, and through our digital platforms.”
