I have to say no wonder there is only 1 of these banks left in the Spokane area! I have never seen more terrible operations or customer service in all my life and the deplorable way they treated my wife was totally unprofessional and uncalled for.
My wife opened a new checking account here because she needed a place where I could deposit money for her to use as she is s stay at home mom. This bank is very close to our new house, so it seemed like the best option. After her online application was approved, she went to the branch to get her debit card. While she was there getting her new card she asked the teller if the account had free counter checks so that she could pay bills from the account that requires a paper check. The teller told her no, but that counter checks were available for purchase. So my wife decides to buy a sheet (4 checks) but then things get weird. The teller looking at her account that she had just opened hours prior had no money in it yet. And she very rudely informed my wife that they could not sell her counter checks until a deposit had been made. So my wife agrees and says she will make a small deposit and purchase the checks at the same time. Then the teller changes policy yet again and goes to her supervisor to approve this, not 1 but 2 different people! When she comes back, she says that the bank cannot sell her the checks until there is more transaction history then a single deposit. But then proceeds to try and sell her an entire checkbook of checks! My wife declined knowing that I would be making a deposit into her account that night and she woul be able to purchase counter checks afterwards on another day. But then to the world's surprise when I arrive to make a deposit into her account, the account had not only been restricted, but also closed! For what? And they didn't even have the decency to call or even email my wife to tell her that's what they were doing! Over some counter checks? That 99 percent of banks will give you free at least a few per year. But she was going to buy these! She actually cried over this just so you people are aware, and she still has no idea why banking staff would treat her in such a way. This place needs to shut down this last location, it's clear why none of them save this one branch have survived in Washington! Absolutely disgusted! Take your business anywhere but this screwed up place! read more
