No More Opus Bank For Me
Opus Bank
(2 stars)I am a Fullerton Community bank customer that was very happy with my totally free checking account. I loved the level of service and that it was a small community bank. It was bought by Opus. My totally free checking account now costs 9 dollars a month not to mention all the other fees. They now deduct the maximum amount they can from my acct when getting gas and they don't clear the hold for 72 hours even though the real charge has been recorded. I called my local branch's phone number only to be routed to a customer service line located in Washington state. While the CSA was professional she claimed the hold was the fault of the gas station. Hmmmm I don't think so since I have been getting gas there for 5 years and this is the first time there has ever been a hold on 126.00. I can not afford a $126 72 hour hold every time I pump gas. I guess it is time to find a new bank.
