Default Private bank or credit union?

Since I discovered the wanders of credit union banking services I would never go back to private banking.
Which one do you have, credit union or regular private banks?

I believe for credit banks:
  1. Offer better rates overall
  2. Offer much better customer service!!!
  3. Have the most expensive number of branches since they share branches natiowide
  4. Have the most extensive number of no-fee ATM since they belong to a co-op network

I see no reason to bank with a regular bank.
Unfortunatelly they are not very well known as a brand name like Bank of america, Chase or ING because they are non profit and can rarely afford to advertise on TV, magazines or billboards.

What do you think?
