Disturbing experience at the First Midwest Bank in Round Lake, I went in there with two checks drawn on their bank, payable to me, funds present in the account ( it's my brother's account) I was told that to cash a check drawn on their bank, that there would be a few. His claim is like a currency exchange they are taking a risk and charge a fee. What risk, they can easily verify the check, I carry three different forms of State ID plus additional IDs there is no risk. It's appalling that customer service is disappearing from First Midwest Bank, they are now no different than the non local big banks. read more
