Massive Incompetence
Like many institutions that don't see the path forward because the focus is distracted, this institution is no different.
Stay Away, Unless You Want A Bank That's Doing YOU The Favor By Banking There
These guys are awful! I've been with them over 12 years now. They and the bank act like their doing YOU a favor by banking there. I received several NSF Fees, asked them to waive (Can't remember the last time I had one) They waived one. The others weren't because "Your account isn't set up for that." They are the only bank out of 4 that I have that sends you an email "Approving" your deposit. Even the way they phrase things on their website, We're doing YOU a favor.
One of my banks has a no NSF fee and actually gives you a personal line for thirty days, they offered, I didn't ask.
I had another issue with SMCU, their old name and I remember I had to push and escalate the situation to be treated fairly.
Go somewhere else, I am.
