Last week I had to cash a few small checks and their was an issue with a $27 check. The manager, Wes Jenkins, came out from the back and treated me so poorly I was shocked. He was rude, condescending and could not have been less professional. I spoke with a district manager about the incident and nothing more came of it. I closed my account the next day.

Went to Chase Bank in downtown Birmingham, Michigan to make a Wire Transfer this morning. I stood…read morein line while ONE Teller waited on customers. The other Teller said she was "new and in training" and could not process transactions. The Bank Manager came out to ask what those of us in line were there for. I told him I need to make a wire transfer and the man behind me said he was there to make a deposit. The man behind me was told to step ahead on me while I was taken out of line waiting for the only teller that knew what she was doing to process my wire transaction. I still am confused as to why the Bank Manager didn't process my wire himself. He did not appear to be busy and kept walking around observing but not assisting. Soon after the Teller called me up, the line of customers in the Lobby started getting longer and the new Teller who could not process transactions, walked out from behind her station after so many customers asked if she could help them. She kept saying that she was new and unable to process anything for them. My Teller was getting nervous, but clearly doing the best she could as quickly as she could. She is a very professional young lady (Afrin) that is also new to Chase but is nice and kind to everyone. As she finalized the paperwork, the Bank's Manager came back, handed me the Wire form and said, "Look this over. If there is a mistake, its on YOU, not US." After I signed the form, I said to the Chase Bank Manager, "You need more people." He snapped and said, "No I don't.....I have enough people. All my Personal Bankers are in the back with Clients right now." I told him my experience with that Chase bank branch is one of extended wait times. He dismissed me and when I asked him to consider a waiver of my Wire fee due to the wait, he said, "No....Those are the kind of things that can get someone fired." Not a nice attitude to have with a customer who is also a large shareholder. If you are looking for a competently managed bank in the Birmingham area, do NOT look at Chase Bank in downtown Birmingham on Old Woodward Ave. The Manager is Rude, Unprofessional and needs to be sent to Customer Service Training 101. He apparently missed this training class when he was hired!

Overall my experience with Flagstar has been mediocre at best. This branch in particular though, I've had an awful experience with. This branch is close to work so I use it occasionally. 1 - I've been hung up while inquiring for ways to received higher returns on my savings - I was seriously in shock! 2 - I also went into the branch one day at 1 or 2 minutes after 5 p.m. not realizing that they closed at 5, and the door was not locked, when I walked in I was yelled at from across the room that they were closed, "sorry" that was a strange experience and not the way I would handle it if I were in customer service, but I said okay and left to use the ATM. 3 - I called customer service and they sent me to the branch to get a stop payment, when I got there the lady said that she could not do one for me, again "sorry" I should call the help desk for assistance. I later found out at another branch that I should have been able to get a stop payment. Overall, I would say Flagstar is okay, but this branch is awful. I am actually planning on changing banks within the next year. Calling for service results in long waits (30 - 50 minutes), rates are not so competive (occationally they offer great "intro" rates for a few months), some employess are helpful and other not so much.
