I've used the lobby, drive-thru, and ATM at this location for several years. I have noticed a downward change in the level of customer service, and I think it's due to being understaffed. There isn't a consistency of quality, so you never know how your visit will turn out...
The drive-thru is achingly slow. I mean REALLY slow most of the time. Not just by the number of cars in line -- some days just two cars will take forever to complete transactions. I've actually sat in line for over 15 minutes while someone conducts business that should have been handled in the lobby. I've also sat in line for 15 minutes because there isn't enough staff to handle the drive-thru customers. A few times I've driven off and gone to another bank. I've always found the customer service people to be nice whether in the lobby or drive-thru, however. Seems that the lane reserved for business customers moves quicker, but there is usually just one car there. Hmmmm.
Went to the drive-thru shortly after opening one morning to get change for a large bill. As usual these days, only two lanes are open but only one car is in each so I hoped for a quicker experience. Nope...after waiting a bit for the car ahead of me to finish, I move into position. The teller finally appears to tell me that they don't have any cash and she has to go to the vault. It will take a few minutes. Said they were really busy yesterday. And so I wait. And wait. And wait. She finally reappears with my change and apologizes for the delay. I laughed and asked if she was sure they had enough money for the day.
As I drove off, I thought WTF????? You know you're going to open at 9 am - have your money drawers fully stocked and inventoried. That should be part of the "make ready" each day as you arrive for your shift.
I never use the ATM because 8 times out of 10 it's out of money.
In summary, consistency/quality and speed of service seem to be the standard problems. It's too bad, because it's definitely been much better. read more
