JCU has never helped me or treated me like family or a valued member. I became a member almost 2…read moredecades ago. My mom actually worked for the company for several years as a teller and then assistant. They paid her pennies. Still, we banked with them. They sold her a trash BMW back in 2008. Still we continued to bank with them. We loved Jefferson County Employee Credit Union at one point. You would think that with my solid relationship with JCU, I would be able to call on them in my time of need. I had two personal loans that were always current and successfully paid off. But when I needed a small $8000 loan for my nursing school tuition they denied me. I needed a $5000 loan when I had pregnancy complications to help get me through the tight spot we were in financially because I was put on bed rest. They denied me. My car ended up getting repossessed because I was denied the loan and I ended up filing bankruptcy. Had my financial institution that I trusted and thought were a family, actually helped me when I needed them most I wouldn't be leaving. They could have gotten several more loans out of me on top of a mortgage eventually. I would have gladly paid them the interest fees over some other bank. What is the point in having a LONG standing positive relationship with a small bank if they are the only ones that benefit from it and not the members as well? If they are going to just look at you on paper and not as a valued member?

PNC Bank seemed unwilling to help business owners during the PPP loan program.

You will get more help at your local McDonalds order counter with loans than from this bank. Some of their branches have just terminals inside. It's a internet banking company with a bunch of branches they inherited from past acquisitions. This is not a bank for small business.

I ended up waiting 45 minutes to apply for a credit card I didn't want. He said he would follow back up before the end of the week. - I received no follow up. Blake had been sick but no one else in the office was able to follow up in his absence. When I called on Friday to follow up, they offered to make an appointment with Blake for the next Monday morning, and that they would called me if there were any changes. - An hour before my appointment on Monday, I called to confirm my appointment with Blake. I was met with extremely rude customer service from Alex, who did not even let me get through my sentence before saying he would call me back when he's not with a customer. When I restated that I wanted confirmation on my appointment with Blake, he quickly confirmed it and hung up. - Upon my arrival, I was met with Alex who told me Blake wasn't here due to illness and that I would have to wait 45 minutes before being able to meet with someone else. He was neither apologetic nor helpful. He said that Blake would be in the office later that day and that Blake would give me a call then. - I did not get a follow up call from Blake. - I spoke with the branch manager who was kind, but I don't believe they will actually attend to the concerns I raised in the branch. Ultimately, their existence is for accessibility and getting customers the product they actually want in the first place. Neither of these were met. I am currently reconsidering my accounts with PNC Bank.
