The ATM is always and I mean always OUT OF SERVICE! I shouldn't have to go all the way across town to another BMO bank, and unfortunately, I do not have friends or relatives and my transportation is the public transportation so you see what the problem is! And when you try to go inside the branch and ask her for help, they tell you straight out "go to the ATM machine and use the ATM" this branch downtown does not want to help you. Their customer service is very bad oh and don't go to the little desk area and ask for help. They will tell you straight out "go to the tellers they can help you." I do not understand. Why do they have a Customer Service area when they are not willing to help you they are straight out rude unfriendly coldhearted unprofessional.!

There's two people on my account we can't see who's transactions are, whose like we used to be able to with the bank of the west which I think is absolutely ridiculous that that has changed. I really wish BMO would get it together before I have to find another bank.

We took out a HELOC with F&M, and that process was for the most part smooth. However, any…read moremanagement of the loan after that is a nightmare. The website they use is terribly outdated and requires a paper that was mailed to me in the early part of the loan creation to even get access. We do not have that paper any longer, and getting access without it has been nightmarish. We are now selling the house and sadly will probably pay a pre-payment penalty, which honestly is worth it just to be done with F&M. The people in the bank on Dale road are nice enough, though the painful process following the loan origination are enough to keep me away from F&M permanently. The three-star rating is strictly for the staff, it has been a train wreck since then.

Even more disappointed with MOCSE due to how their credit card/debit card system is managed…read more Today I went on line to purchase two VIP tickets to an upcoming concert. The MOCSE system stopped my transaction and I lost these choice seats while dealing with their verification system. If their programmers were so smart, why didn't they detect that these are about the 11th and 12th such buys we have made in the past 12 months? I ended up booking two less desirable seats due to MOCSE's low bandwidth system. But wait, there's more...Shortly after jumping through all of their hoops and calling and speaking to a staff member, i tried to purchase three tickets to a place we are visiting in Scotland in July ($84), and the system wouldn't allow it. Even their staffer helping, me clearing cache, restarting the computer, you name it nothing worked. The vendor's system indicated it was a bank not approving the sale (yes I have no balance and an good credit rating). Neither the CC or the DC would work for either the MOCSE employee or I. To be extra fair, she tried to help as best she could but to no avail. She asked me to call another person, who so far has not returned my call. (I have already spent almost an hour on the phone dealing with this.) But wait, there's more. A few years ago, their system MISSED a fraudulent charge I caught and had to bring to their attention. Hampering my transactions has caused me inconvenience several times before, this is the worst so far. It is time to reduce my banking institutions to my other two. Not worth the frustration, I only opened the account to be supportive of the CU and it was close to where we live. Simply not enough bandwidth for prime time, I recommend a NO on them.
