Decent bank
I started using this bank back when we first moved here in 2001. It was good back then but since then it has changed owners and things have been downhill since then. It wasn't long after the new owners took over that the original tellers left because they couldn't handle the new owners rules and the new tellers that were brought in are not the friendliest people on Earth. They act like you are a major inconvenience to them. The only redeeming quality about them is that they're at a more convenient location compared to the other bank in town. We still have an account with them strictly as a savings account because their fees are pretty decent but we rarely go in and interact with them like we used to. We stick to the online banking and just use the ATM when necessary.
