Excellent Customer Service
The Chatsworth branch has delightful customer service with professional highly skilled staff. What a breath of fresh air dealing with a financial institution that puts the customer first.
Horrible Customer Service Experience
This branch treated me and my father like we had no reason to be there when we have had an account with them for over a decade, they made things considerably more difficult over language constraints and even wanted us to go outside to make a cash withdrawal from an ATM before being able to deposit cash instead of accepting any cards, including their own, I've never heard of this happening and was not given an indepth explanation as to why it was necessary. Horrible, if not the worst, online as well as in person customer service experience I've had
