AWFUL BANK!!!
Bank of the Sierra
(1 stars)I opened an account and provided documents as requested. I hadn't heard anything from the bank for a few months until I received a letter stating my account had been closed and a cashiers check had been issued and they needed to know if I had received the cashiers check. I had not received the cashiers check and when I called to inquire as to why my account had been closed and why a cashiers check had been sent. They informed me that they supposedly hadn't received a particular document and therefore closed my account charging me the $15.00 early closure fee. On top of it I am required to complete an affidavit which I have to have notarized, another $10.00, therefore it cost me $25.00 to ever put any money in an account with this bank! What a joke!!! I explained that I never wanted the account closed in the first place and that I had received absolutely no communication from them and they said that the account was already closed and there was nothing I could do.
BEWARE! Do not bank with these people and if you choose to bank with them I suggest calling them weekly to be sure they don't just decide to close your account without notifiying you!
