I qualified, put a bid on my dream home, and 1 weeks before the closing, Suzanne Oliver says, "wells faro doesn't like the comparable, and your house is under priced for what it's really worth, so we are denying it." I sold my furniture for the move, hot a uhaul, enlisted 10 family members, hired 2 moving guys, and lost my dream house I've had a solid purchase agreement on for 4 months! Omg! What the fuck! Fine deny it, but a week before closing? I'm a teacher, veteran, $25 down, no issues, solid work history, and they hate where the house is at? I'm never banking there again. I even referred my girlfriend there to her and Wells .. same thing... 2 days before closing Suzanne says "oops! We forgot about monthly association fees, pay $1400 Dollars today, or the house deal is dead" omg! She ended her lease, sold all her furniture, and now is homeless! Bullshit! Go anywhere other than Wells Fargo! Sue the shit out of this crappy company.

My business account was opened at Bank West. In the intervening 9 years I have moved my personal accounts, my other business banks, and credit card operations to Bank West. I've been in charge of the day to day banking of my and my families business since the mid 1980's. Many banks have come and gone. One stands out. That is Bank West The service level is un-matched. The staff is strong and has experience in depth. They make a habit of saying 'lets see if we can get that done' instead of quoting from a policy manual of why it can't be done. My wife and I are smart consumers who have spent 25 years studiously saving and spent frugally We understand 'needs' and 'wants'.

Each time Bank West has been our partner in our pursuits. Can you say the following? "Our hard work and savings combined with our bank are making our DREAMS come true". I can. And we're doing it with Bank West.

I have never written a Yelp review before, however the negative experience my super-elderly father…read moreand I had at the Maple Grove branch compelled me to do so. I was assisting my father with getting his address changed, getting a copy of a statement he had not received & renewing a CD that had matured that day. The teller said we had to make an appointment with a banker to renew the CD & that the soonest appointment was in an hour & 10 minutes. We decided to take that appointment & wait in the lobby. The lobby has exactly 2 chairs, so it's SRO for most of the people waiting to see a banker. (Thankfully a woman gave up her chair for my Dad.) The bankers' office walls that face the lobby are floor to ceiling glass, such that it is easy to see what is going on in each office. In one of the offices a woman sat at her desk intently scrolling her phone. In another, 2 women were chatting, obviously not about business because we could easily hear them from where we were. After we waited an hour and 20 minutes, my Dad's frustration led him to return to the teller to complain. Only then did anyone else pay attention to him & tell him he could see a banker now. My Dad pulled his money from his Blaze accounts & closed them due to how he felt he was treated. If you are looking for a credit union for your banking, I'd suggest you avoid Blaze.

Never would I ever recommend this bank or Michelle. I think this bank needs to remodel their staff.
