I mean, it counted right (because I double-checked prior to insertion) but it just was so slowwwwwww. I liked that this was a contactless ATM - I had my Apple Watch and had never used it to use these ATMs, but this part made things super simple to start the transaction off right.

They have someone at the front desk to tries to greet you if he or she is not already helping someone. They always have enough tellers available so that even if there is a line, it moves quickly. The last time I got a loan there - albeit quite a few years ago - it went very smoothly.

DELAYED REVIEW: Here's one that was in my drafts during my…read moreholiday shopping. Sorry I did not post sooner, but I thought the recognition was warranted. I needed some holiday cash to stuff in my Christmas envelopes so I drove through the Chase Bank on Route nine near the Marshalls/TJX/HomeGoods shopping plaza Parking there's pretty easy with overflow everywhere. But today I picked the drive-through teller. It has one of those old school tubes that comes and goes from inside the building. Great for kids to watch if you have any of those in the car Anyway, I didn't have to wait long before one of the drive-through tellers appeared and let me know they were just a little backed up and appreciated my waiting. They're really polite here and a few times I have used the drive-through teller has not been disappointing. It's worth noting that the drive-through takes a bit longer. Convenience has its downside, but I was prepared to wait because on this day, the convenience outweigh the time crunch My teller was supra Helpful and had my requests filled in no time. All with a smile, despite the holiday rush Nothing went wrong except some grumpy customers who felt it urgent to swear out other customers just trying to use the ATM. I guess they forgot about holiday spirit This particular Chase location has a great staff with great attitude. Well done.

The atm literally never works and if it does, it doesn't do half of the services you need it to.read more

She asked Carrie several times for help to which the first time Carrie responded " what does the check say?" Several minutes later Mirrandia asked again for help - Carrie says " do 1 at a time. At this point I had been here for about 15 minutes- Carrie didn't seem to care that I had been standing here all along - didn't offer any more assistance. During this time Carrie assited 2 customers. Which 1 customer asked her if she liked it here- Carrie responded - yeah there's plenty of room for advancement and its close to home. Still standing her with Miranda struggling. Asked another associate for help but with no end result. While standing at the window for 30 minutes I was privy to the Branch manager having a conversation with " Chris" the receptionist- it was initially entertaining until it wasnt. Tabitha is the branch manager- she would be celebrating her anniversary soon - and she will be going to Rhode Island - not sure if Rhode Island was where she was celebrating, anyway. Probably 20 minutes into my visit to the branch. Oh yeah - customer told Tabitha she looked like she lost weight- Tabitha responded - I've gained a few pounds - Rice Krispy treats go down like water. Miranda asked another teller for help - Marie- she had been cleaning her work station- and again totally oblivious that I had been there for 25 minutes now-told Chris- the receptionist she would need numbers for the override- Chris said if your numbers don't work neither will mine-At this point I asked for the branch manager- was told she was out to lunch. When Tabitha did arrive 30 minutes into my adventure- she said she knew what to do - I had been in the pervious week - it was not as entertaining as this incident . I don't know do you think this is worthy of any stars? In a nut shell there where plenty of employees on staff to assist- Nobody cared that I was there for 30 minutes. Please look at the video- this is not an exaggeration. During my adventure there were literally at most- 5 customer transactions during my stay. May 3 was the transaction date - I believe I arrived at 11:45 ish and departed 12:18. Gotta see it to believe it !!!!!!!!

From Vince to Liz and now Brandi; everyone in the group is amazing. Over the years in business together some have asked me why I chose a smaller regional bank for my businesses, family and other personal needs. Well now the shutdown has led to the need for gigantic assistance with the government loans and the neigh sayers are still waiting for the "too big to help" banks. Unfortunately, many of our good small businesses locally are suffering as these giants are protecting themselves and forgetting about the small and mid size businesses. Instead, Jim and his crew have made it their mission to assist the region. Do your research and you will find that these loans give little profit to the bank and come with tons of work (probably why your big boy banks are refusing to help you) My recommendation to you is to switch all of your business to Rhinebeck Bank. The short term consideration you give them will be repaid ten fold with a level of service and commitment you will never find with those too big to care organizations. Lann Rubin II

Unexpected Account Closure and Loan Reversal After Providing Proof…read more I applied for a $5,000 personal loan with Rhinebeck Bank. The first application was denied for "not enough credit history." I then provided proof of a paid-off auto loan that Rhinebeck Bank had issued to me in the past, which they confirmed existed in their system (but was not showing on my credit report). After I provided proof of the paid-off loan, my application was approved with set terms. The next day, the bank reversed the decision and denied the same loan due to "misrepresentations" -- even though the bank acknowledged that the payment history they saw came from a third-party credit company, not from me. Shortly after, the bank closed the checking account I had just opened and sent a cease-and-desist letter. I was never accused of creating false documents -- only that the bank received them from another company. Based on my experience, I feel the bank handled the situation without clear communication or fairness. I would recommend anyone applying for loans here to document every step, because decisions can change suddenly without a clear explanation.

I hate going to get documents notarized at other locations because I usually have to sit and wait for a while. Once I was even told there was no notary available after waiting for a while. So frustrating. This experience was amazing and zero stress. I'll be coming here for now on.

Well today and I check and there it is - it states you can make extra payments to shorten your loan and interest. WOW!! So this wasn't their policy before? Was it legal? Were they lying to me? This is nothing to say about them depositing checks into wrong accounts, debit card charges going to incorrect accounts, deleting money in savings, etc etc. !! This has been across other family members accounts as well. They are inept, sneaky, unethical and probably more. Even my lawyer told me not to bank with them, not to bank with any credit union but that HVCU (HVFCU) is the worst!!
