Terrible experience with Star Bank. We got a Home Equity loan through them a few years ago. While going through the application process they sent our signing documents (including full SSN, Name, Address, etc) to the incorrect e-mail address. When we let them know that we had not received the documents, rather than validate that they had the correct information, they blamed us, suggesting that it must have gone to our spam or junk folder. We finally determined that the issue was on their end. This was after sending to the incorrect address at least twice.
A few years later we had a land dispute with our neighbor. Star Bank sent a lawyer to the mediation. We saw no reason for him to be there. He showed up, sat in another room of our home for several hours (never really participating in the mediation), and then left. We ended up having to cover his fees, which exceeded $11,000.
I wish that Yelp allowed for no stars. read more
