NO ONE HAS HONOR OR RESPECT FOR ANYONE ANYMORE!!! So glad I finalized all of my business today with this bank. SMH #donewithcommercebank #norespect

We tried to exchange some Bahamian money that we didn't spend our recent vacation, and they said that they would do it, but that they could not find the Bahamas on the list. Rather than think critically and decide how they could add the Bahamas to the list, like contacting the company who administer the program used to do the exchange, they instead said there was nothing they could do about it and shut down the conversation with a plastic smile on their faces. I know, first world, problems, right? Still, when you work in the financial institutions, it is generally understood that the primary focuses customer service, always. I am disappointed, but now the reviews about customer service that I see everywhere pertaining to this company makes perfect sense.

Arvest Bank is run like a 1970's company that still requires paper documents for all agreements at…read morestart up and moving forward with all start up and ongoing changes that may take place. I tried to make a payment change online only to find out that at Arvest, this is not possible. Arvest requires that all changes to payment sources require that the customer fill out a paper form with signature for any payments and this includes updating expiring credit card payments. To make matters worse, the form come in the mail in 5-7 days and then must be mailed back making the conversion time as long as 2-4 weeks. With every other bank in the US (that I know of), payments can be changed on line without the contact and assistance of personal customer service help by logging in online, entering payment updates, and hitting the "OK" button. With Arvest it means calling their customer service number, going through robots asking multiple questions, getting put on hold for 15 minutes and finally getting to talk to a human at which time the reason for the call has to be repeated, explained and if lucky, getting to someone competent to complete the request. In my case, no such luck. I was told that the paper form would be sent to me via mail and I asked if they could also send via email (email has now been in use for 30 years but Arvest prefers paper, envelopes and stamps) and as of today those letters and emails never came. I this that Arvest should consider moving into a business more aligned with their internal talents and capabilities such as a lemonade stand that only accepts cash and exact change only. At the end of each day, they can fill their paper bank rolls of pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters light grandma did back in the 1960's. I believe that they can do this well. Otherwise, my suggestion is to work with organizations like Chase, BOA, Wells Fargo and others. Arvest is just not good at banking.
