I received a replacement debit card and activated it 3 days before the expiration of my previous card. The day after, the card kept resulting in a decline while in the middle of getting groceries. I check the account and see my usual balance which is far more than enough to cover the 35$ in groceries. Since it was after closing, I call the main branch the next day (a Friday) and speak with the Debit Card Manager, Ashley. She tells me it was a problem with their system and that they had the wrong expiration date on one of two systems they use, and that she has fixed it and it would now be working. I go to use it that evening and get the same result. I even try going to their ATM, same thing. This leaves me over a 3 day Labor Day weekend with no access to my money and only the 20 bucks I had in my wallet. I scrounge through the weekend and call on Tuesday. Debit Card Manager Ashley tells me that everything was functional and there were no issues with my card and that if I needed anything I should go to my local branch. No apology, no further investigation into what happened, just a firm "not my problem." When I go to my local branch, I speak with staff there who say that my card was flagged as stolen from a 3rd party system an hour after I talked with Ashley on Friday. I was given no notification of this by either my bank or the 3rd party. 5 minutes into the conversation it comes out that the employee had been warned by Debit Card Manager Ashley that I was coming and sent a transcript of the 3rd party activity which clearly shows that she took away the "lost" status and reactivated the card while I was on the phone with her earlier. She is put on speaker phone and rudely denies this even though I'm staring at the screen with her username directly next to the time and interaction. I have banked at Arthur State for a number of years, and while they lack many of the convenience and technology features of larger banks, I stayed with them due to the personal touch and dependability that come with a smaller, hometown bank. My opinion of them has now completely changed.
