Best rates in the market along with great service. Highly recommend.
The bank offers many competitive products with great rates. I recently opened the Relationship MMKT and Checking and am very happy. I get a 2.25% rate on my money market which is top of market. Highly recommend.
At first glance this appears to be a nice bank, however that is not the case in my experience. I have not been able to use the mobile app or login to the website to review my account activity for 3 weeks now. Each of my painful calls to customer service were not helpful. I was told they can’t see my account status or balance and someone would call me back. That has not happened as of yet.
I expressed concern that I have no visibility of my account activity and was told again there was nothing they could do but promise another callback. These practices not only appear unethical, but borderline illegal. I do not recommend this bank unless you’re using it as a secondary account due to the unreliable service I’ve received.
I went to open an account at the branch. The entire time I was there no one came into the branch except for an old man that was locked out of his account. I was turned down because I have my money in other cities to earn higher interest. They see that as a risk. They prefer the ignorant person that keeps tens of thousands in a checking earning zero interest. I inquired and was told to apply again and they turned down again. Now I have two inquiries on my Chex systems due to them. They have a lot of fee time on theornhands so I would believe what the other reviews say about calling to inquire transactions all the time. I have an 800 credit score, and a clean chexsystem.
No pongan su dinero alli este banco te esta cuestionando todo el tiempo de donde sacaste el dinero q se deposita no importa si es cash o cheque todos los dias te estan llamando abri la cuenta alli y a los 10 dias la tu e q cerrar
I HAD AN ACCOUNT THAT I HAD TO CLOSE TODAY AFTER 7 YEARS. THEY WAS CHARGING ME $20 MONTHLY EVEN IF MY ACCOUNT WAS DOMESTIC.
NO ONE WANTED TO DO ANYTHING. THE RECEPTIONIST CALLED A GUY AND THE GUY SAID WE CAN REFUND $20 (THEY TOOK MORE THAN $200) IF I WONT CLOSE IT. THIS WAS A SCAM. THEY ROBBED CUSTOMERS.
I was a customer for 6 years, if you move your money very often, try not to reach the account balance to 0 because the bank will CLOSE your account because "new politics", so, no penalties, no overdraft fees, you only get the "kick in the butt" treatment from customer service.
