I now work with them for both my small business and personal taxes, as well as a fabulous bookkeeper whom they introduced me to. For so long I didn't really have adequate help when it came to taxes, and having great people on my side like I do now really makes a huge difference. I really can't express how grateful I am to have found them!

My accountant had recently died of Covid-19 and I needed expertise. They did not schedule an appointment and did not provide me with needed services in the time frame that they indicated or what I expected and needed. With conversations with them they were not truthful in a number of areas. (Those little white lies) They also did not listen to my needs nor seemed to care. I spent many, many hours providing them with detailed information that spoon feed information to easily do the four returns. I have gone elsewhere

They've always been helpful and responsive, providing a couple counter checks when I forgot my checkbook at home but needed to drop off payments to vendors in town, looking up balances and helping with CDs, hosting our safe deposit box, getting documentation lined up for transferring funds between institutions, doing some investment advising... I thought small town, brick-and-mortar, personal banking was a thing of the past, but it's alive and well in PT at First Fed. They have all the modern conveniences, too, if you prefer doing it on your mobile device or computer, even downloading to Quicken. We love it here!!

I have been at the same place of business for six years yet they still hold every monthly deposit as if it was from someone new every single time. My co-workers get their $$ no later than one day after the $$ has been deposited yet I have to wait no less than 2 days and if the deposit happens on a Thursday or Friday, I won't see a deposit into my account until the following Monday. The result is several auto pays often get rejected because of this delay in accessable funds. I get penalized and fined often because of this. Unfortunately because this has been a recurring issue for 6 years, I'll need to find a different institution that doesn't participate in these unusual and inconvenient business practices.

I've been to many horrible branches of WFB in California and elsewhere. But I'll take the welcoming local service gladly and gratefully. That's why I love living in this wonderful community. As far as the bank itself, if I wasn't so financially immersed and entangled with multiple financial products, I would have left them a long time ago. I despise their ethics and questionable practices. Hopefully I'll be able to do something about that someday. Meanwhile, this review is about this branch only. They're not responsible for the policies and restrictions of their corporate office, and they seem to do their best to make my experience as pleasant as they can under the circumstances.
