When I called the bank around noon, they told me the rate was good until 4pm. I said I wanted to be sure the rate would be available all day since I had a long drive to get there. They told me to come ahead.

When I got to the bank (after a one-hour drive) they told me the CD wasn't available.

Avoid this bank--you can't trust what they tell you. This was really disgraceful service. With trqffic, it then took me 2 hours to get home.
