This is by far the worst bank in town. From them not having accommodating hours for their…read morecustomers, NO Saturday drive thru or lobby hours, closing at 4pm except one day a week, not opening until 9, when working people who have money to deposit are at work. Their mobile deposit system is a joke esp. knowing it is a real person at the Duncansville branch who processes them but yet it will still be 3 days till you see it and trying to hold funds on payroll checks, one person in front of you at the drive through and you might as well pack a lunch. When calling in, you are left feeling as if you inconvenienced them for some reason. I thought once the dictator like manager left a bit ago it would get better, but I was wrong. Time to shop for a new bank that actually tries to provide customer service and convenience without the need for Tylenol every payday.

But apparently it means one is kicked out of having an account at a financial institution solely because of one's political affiliation. I received a letter in the mail telling me that I was getting kicked out of M &T Bank. It stated that they did not have to tell me why, and they were not going to tell me why. I immediately went to my local branch, and the clerks there could find no information of any sort that I was being removed from my bank account. I was not applying for a loan, and I had three direct deposits coming in. Makes no sense.

Upon contacting corporate, we were told that it was up to the branch manager to alleviate the issue. They told us that there was no complaint filed so they couldn't fix the problem. I explained that we tried to file a complaint and were told only corporate could help us. Terrible customer service might be too nice of a comment for this awful bank. I don't like to bash places but this is an exception.
