Last July on a warm Sunday afternoon I was driving on a 2 lane roundabout about a mile from my…read moreapartment. A man thought he could go completely around so he hit me as I was driving out. I was devastated. I hadn't had an auto accident for many years! The police explained to the man that he couldn't do that! State Farm was awesome with kind, understanding words and reassurance! It was like talking to my best friend. The agent explained the policies and how everything was going to progress. State Farm also has special people to talk to if you have a hearing deficit--which I do. So I could hear and understand the process. I'm driving my car again and it looks beautiful.

Shannon Kramer (Mortgage Banker at Alerus) is a gem! Well before Shannon knew whether she would…read moreactually end up with our business, she was more than willing to answer questions and help us figure out a way forward that was in OUR best interests - not hers. Our situation is fairly unique and it wasn't an easy process, but she made it as painless and smooth as possible. Along the way, we ran into several bumps, but before I could get too discouraged, Shannon was right there with a solution to get us back on track. I am incredibly impressed with her knowledge of the financing process, but also with her network of professionals who are able to step in when needed. For instance, we needed a new homeowner's insurance policy (quickly, so as not to delay closing) but were having a tough time finding a company to insure us because of an open claim. When I emailed Shannon to give her a heads up that I was striking out with every insurer I tried, she responded quickly with the name of an agent who might be able to help. Within one day, the agent she suggested was able to get us a policy that was less expensive than we expected. Shannon is very responsive and a great communicator - I never had to wait long for a response to any of my (many, many) questions. She was also extremely patient with two rubes who have never been down this path before. All in all, our experience with Shannon (and, by extension, Alerus) was better than we could have hoped for. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to finance or refinance their home.

Terrible customer service. Customer services stated there was nothing that they could do to help…read moreme with a tech problem. If they did not know how to help, they should have researched the question instead of repeatedly stating "unfortunately there is nothing we can do, we can not help you" I asked if I could talk to someone who knew how to help, could I help myself? and I got the same response over and over " unfortunately..." I talked with supervisor Susan, who called me names and blamed me, I spoke to the bank manager, Jim who supported his staff and proved incompetent to operate his products on contracted website, and fiannally, Zeke who literally laughed at me. It appears I was talked about among the staff and treated as entertainment and therefore humiliated. I was experiencing a family emergency. I neededed help. I persisted, studied the website and solved the problem in 45 seconds. I reported to Midcountry there was a simple solution that allowed me to help my family, and again they shamed me, twisted the truth, and blamed the customer. They asked me what I wanted to do? I said I never wanted them to treat a customer in an emergency this way again. Terrible treatment for a customer of over 20 years. My accounts will all be closed this week.
