Have been a customer for over 25 years, back when in was Wachovia. Wish it had stayed Wachovia! This bank continues to decline in customer service, overall unhelpfulness (at least for us regular rabble), convenient locations, and bank policies. Just recently this branch would not cash a check from my insurance company for Helene damages, because they said my house is in a trust and "there was no trust account". That's right, there's no trust account, just me, and it's my name on the check and the trust. End of story. They chose to turn it into a big hassle, and I ended up having to get my insurance company to issue a check with only my name and not mentioning the property. This delayed repairs and caused me extra hassle and aggravation.
The online services and phone customer service is appalling. Openly rude gen Zero jerks from NY is who you typically get - or people from the 3rd world whom you can't understand. In the past couple years there has been a regular issue with my account not balancing/being short due to discrepancies of anywhere from 3 to 20.00 that couldn't be accounted for anywhere. No matter how far I went back. You have to wonder if WF is siphoning off very small amounts of money from accounts, hoping people won't notice. It stopped when I started calling and requesting back statements in writing to examine.
I have some installment plan payments coming out over the next month and a half, and when they are completed I'm finding a new bank. Which honestly I should have done years ago. WF is not an ethical org, and they seem to have actual contempt for their customers. read more
