I've been a happy customer of Chase Bank for many years. However....
Recently I've had to do many transactions inside the Selden branch which involved a bank representative. I met w/Iris 2 separate times & she helped me. I returned the next day with 40 minutes til closing & waited for a rep - No one greeted me, but there were 2 reps just chatting it up, who glanced my way. After standing up periodically to remind the reps of my presence, and 10 minutes later, I finally walked up to the teller, & she went to the bank rep. She came back to tell me that I needed an appt. That's something the reps could've said, instead of ignoring a customer & talking about personal things.
Days later I sched an appt; Omar called me to reconfirm that morning - good start! I met with him to remove myself from 1 Acct - which he did, & to close a dormant Acct, When he saw that I had a small amount in this dormant Acct, he told me to transfer the funds. I had difficulty doing this & showed him my phone & he basically reiterated what he said - to transfer funds then he'll close it. As if he'd rather do something else as he waited for me to transfer the funds. I said to myself - No shyt Sherlock, I need help. I said thanks & left & went to the bank teller. She helped me.
I don't want to say Chase Selden has an issue, because the tellers that I've encountered there, are always friendly, not lazy, & are accommodating. So, I'm going to continue my dealings with the bank, but, I'll use the reps at a different location when needed. I've since transferred out a lot of my funds to a different bank. I hope that Chase bank works on their customer service skills & how to deal with customers. That, to me, is the experience-friendly, patient, kind, people who know their job....and if they don't know their job, they're not too lazy to find out!! It's because of this experience - not being acknowledged as I sat for 10 minutes, getting 1/2 azz assistance when I needed help, that's why I took my real funds & took them somewhere that I know I'm valued. Gotta teach them to respect you! read more
