They did stop taking Ira deposits this year and I was able to easily close out my Ira account and transfer it to a savings account. I have also used this bank for mortgages and found them to be very fair and efficient. I enjoy using the shady parking lot in the back of the bank because in the summer it provides a cool area to park your vehicle. There are also spaces always available. When I walked in the other day, I saw that they had redone the reception waiting line area into a very inviting lounge. They were just about to put up the Christmas tree so I can't wait to see what the Christmas decorations look like!
