Amalgamated Sucks
I can't say that my first experience with Amalgamated Bank was all that favorable. My Mother was sick that day and she asked me to go deposit her check into her account using her ATM card. Walking into the vestibule the first thing I noticed was a homeless man sleeping under the ATM machines. I chose not to wake the man, instead I walked into the main potion of the bank. Upon entering I was greeted by a security guard who called me honey and asked what I was doing later on that night.Ignoring the pig, I filled out the deposit slip and waited online for the ONE teller to finish up. After the 5-10 minute wait I approached the teller and handed over the deposit slip and paycheck. The extremely rude teller then demanded my ID. I informed her that it wasn't mine and I was doing a favor for my mother. She then slides the check back to me and said that if my name wasn't on the account I could not deposit the check through a teller. I told her I was originally trying to do it through the ATM but some guy was sleeping under it. She looked at me and in a very sarcastic voice said " Well I guess your going to have to wait until he's done with his little nap." I will never visit that bank again.
They Just Plain Stink
Their branches, products, service, and their management just plain STINK. Derick Cephas (CEO) is the biggest ignoramus to ever run that dis-organization. And for good reason...the man is a lawyer, not a banker. He runs the bank as if he knew what he were doing. His poor decisions have cost the bank dearly in terms of profits, employee morale, customer relations, Union relations, etc. The bank is going downhill and fast. Do yourself a favor and skip that dump. If you're currently a customer, switch to another bank before you are a victim of the bank's poor performance. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
