It just has a "home town bank" feel to it - the folks that work there (Cherie is our fave :-) that take really good care of their customers. It's a tad more cumbersome in some ways than the "big banks" - they don't have lobby deposit slips for example, and the drive thru can be a tad slower than some other banks - but the friendly helpful attitudes more than make up for any of the very minor inconveniences.

While going through a divorce, I took my ex's name off all my accounts... but, the manager failed to follow through, so my ex was able to steal $10k from an account he'd been left able to access, despite being assured this wasn't possible. Consistently being locked out of my own accounts during large remodels (where paying the contractors and vendors was imperative) or WHILE OUT OF THE COUNTRY, leaving me without any money over weekends, even though I'd put travel alerts on the accounts. Being treated so disrespectfully while doing simple transaction, at the University Place location, other customers complained on my behalf. Multiple other issues.

When I moved to the small town of Sequim 22 years ago, my neighbor told me about Sound Bank. She…read moretold me to go in and introduce myself to the manager, and everything else would fall into place. I did that, and my neighbor was right. The manager invited me to a community event, and that was the start of my social circle in Sequim. She also set up my accounts and introduced me to the staff. When my daughter decided to move here ten years later, I gave her the same advice my neighbor had given me. She was approved for her home mortgage in no time and is still a loyal customer. In fact, many people here in Sequim have had a similar experience: a second branch has opened here. Much credit has to be given to that manager, but the new manager is cut from the same cloth. On my second visit to the bank, the teller knew my name, and so have the tellers hired more recently, and I'm by no means a big depositor; I'm just an old, retired man living on his Social Security. I will always recommend this bank over any other bank in Washington. If you happen to live in a town lucky enough to have a Sound Community Bank branch office, you should try it and see what I mean.

I love this Bank. The tellers are personable and kind, they actually get to know you and your name,…read moreand they actually pay attention to what you need and what you want. I have done business banking with Sound Community Bank since 2013 when I founded a small Brewery in Tacoma. Sound has given me not only a lot of opportunities that would otherwise not be afforded a brand new small business such as a Capital Equipment loan at relatively favorable rates, but has also created tremendous networking opportunities with other local businesses. Our accountant for example is someone who was introduced to us by staff at Sound Community Bank, and he is a rockstar. This bank is about relationships and connections. If you want to bank just to have a place to keep your money, there are other banks that have more branches and more ubiquity. But if you want to bank and have a relationship, Sound Community Bank is completely outstanding.

As I was leaving, I thanked her for her patience and she just completely ignored me. Sorry that you had to do your job for all of 3 minutes, lady.
