They Are Reprehensible
I have been banking with this company for over a decade. Our time together has come to an end. Within this timeframe, they have failed to properly secure my accounts. I had an old account hacked. Several "scares", attempted fraudulent charges. I have also traveled abroad and an employee "forgot" to unblock my account for overseas use. That was a terrifying 24 hrs, and no apology from the staff. They have very flexible security protocols inhouse. Your personal info is at risk. Your money is at risk. Over the phone they ask for info that is a breach of security. Once, after making a minor complaint about an interaction with a maintenance worker, the assistant manager asked not for my name, but for my account number to identify me! Not to mention too many fees for small services, each fee $3 a piece. They slowly drain your account to line their pockets. Do not use this bank. I no longer am.
