As a follow up to my previous review:…read more I was quite happily surprised to have a senior level customer service representative contact me to apologize for my bad experiences with Cambridge Savings Bank. Jennifer was extremely professional, intelligent and very apologetic. I explained that I really want to keep my banking business with a local bank, and not a monster like Bank of America, but I simply can't do that with such bad experiences like a non-working ATM card while overseas, or a mediocre online banking system. Jennifer and Cambridge Savings Bank have since set the standard for customer service: they have offered to reimburse me for any costs that I incurred as a result of the ATM card not working. They also explained the problem with the online bill system. Since our conversation (within the last 2 weeks) they have added a feature to the online bill system that is at least a step forward. She also explained that a solution will be coming soon. Assuming the online bill problems are fixed, I will stay with Cambridge Savings Bank for a long time. Jennifer was absolutely fantastic and THIS is why I use a local bank. Thanks Jennifer and CSB!

My husband and I secured our first home's mortgage through Cambridge Savings Bank. The process was…read morevery hit or miss, some parts went very smoothly and some were so stressful I thought the whole thing would fall apart. In the end it all worked out, thankfully. The staff were helpful but were slow to communicate and did not go above and beyond for us as first time buyers. Kind of disappointing. I figured our mortgage would get sold to a bigger lender/bank so I guess it doesn't matter in the long run but that aspect of this whole process is what made it the craziest/most stressful.

Their financial managers are smart; they pay some of the best interest rates around consistently. It is a well-established bank; it survived the Great Depression. Do yourself a favor: Keep the money in the community and do business with them.

Weird. So I grabbed the pup and hopped in the car and took off down Mass Ave. This branch is a lot bigger and much more corporate bank feeling than brookline. They had milk-bones for the pup which always makes me happy. It's bright and clean and the people are friendly, but it's just not the same. On a Saturday morning, in a pinch, I'll go there-- but the rest of the time, it's brookline for me.

My Rockland Trust debit card information was stolen and used by someone in another state to make a…read morepurchase of nearly $1,000.00 I was sent a text message from Rockland Trust on that day asking me if I made this purchase, to which I replied "NO", and the card was subsequently frozen and my account was given a provisional credit for that $1,000.00 fraudulent purchase. Fast forward 3 months later, and the provisional credit I had been given was then RESCINDED by Rockland Trust, and I was told they had been given "proof" by the merchant where the fraudulent transaction occurred that it was not fraudulent, despite the fact that the bank itself CONTACTED me that day when the purchase was made as they suspected it to be fraudulent. Now Rockland Trust is telling me there is "nothing more we can do", despite having already being able to provide me a credit for the fraudulent purchase that they TOLD me about the moment it happened. I will very likely be taking my business elsewhere entirely and never banking here again because of this complete failure, on Rockland Trust's part, to protect me and my financial security despite every indication and piece of evidence they had to do so.
