I looked into BECU and they want you to be a Boeing employee, or live in the area. There aren't any other options, so if I wanted to go forward, I was going to have to lie. Has anyone had any experience with getting into a credit union you weren't technically qualified to be in?
There are some requirements, but there are lots of options so I don't know how much they verify. From reading the requirements, it is pretty open because it covers having a family member for most of the categories.
