3 times I've been stuck without being able to use my card. Once in Italy, another in Arizona, &…read moreanother in Boston. When I called to ask why, they kept blaming the card or the chip or some technical reason and said it was fraud protection. Absolutely ZERO help with fixing, just lots of excuses and kept blaming me. When I repeated myself for the 5th time asking how I'm suppose to get cash of the card doesn't work, she insisted there was nothing wrong with the card nor the bank policy .... Yet I was still unable to get cash ... so ... well I think you get my point. Circular argument where I'm still stuck in Boston unable to get cash and they insist it's not them. CLEARLY, this small time bank is unable to do business outside their little area. 3 strikes and you're out ... time for a new bank.

Signed up for a new checking account to take advantage of $400 promotion:…read more https://www.bankatpeoples.com/home/standalone/checking-400? A week after creating the account, I was told the promotion is no longer valid, despite their system accepting the "Get400" promotion code. I visited the Westfield brank and was told by a teller that the system accepts codes even if they are invalid since it doesn't validate them. I asked if the promotion could be extended since it had just expired. The teller checked with management and informed me that no such courtesy could be extened for a new customer. I called headquarters and asked again if they would be able to extend the promotion for a new customer. I explained the main reason for opening the account place was the promotion and that the promotion still appears on their web site and no expiration date is listed. Again, I was told my request could not be honored. I informed the representative that I would be leaving negative feedback on Yelp and closing my account immediately. I left Peoples Bank 20 years ago due to their high fees and thought I would give them another chance. Seems not much has changed. There are many better options, including credit unions that are more likely to work with their customers. Stay away from Peoples Bank.
