Worst People Do Deal With
I tried to open an account with them and transferred $525 as my opening deposit. The money was transferred to them right away, but the next day I got an email from them saying they could not open the account for me. I politely asked them to return the $525 to me. They said that they would. A week later, I still haven't received the check in the mail, so I got a hold of them and found that they never processed the refund of the $525. I asked them to transfer back the $525 via ACH and was told, "We have never done that before and do not know if we can do that." ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? you are a bank and you don't know how to perform an ACH transaction???
Anyways, this bank makes it so easy to receive funds but impossible for you to get a refund. Should avoid this bank at all cost.
