Always a great experience. The ATM is located inside the branch, so that's nice - and SBCU's space is clean and inviting.

So far, so good... 5 stars

We wrote a check for $3,183 that was stolen and cashed by someone named Deja Woods-Vargas, and…read moreKinecta said "it was determined that no error occurred" because of "untimely notice". So it is our fault for this fraud, and Kinecta will not help us get our money back. We wrote a check for $3,183 to pay our tax to the United States Treasury in June 2025. Someone by the name Deja Woods-Vargas stole it, altered it, then cashed it at a US Bank on 07/11/25. Kinecta did not catch this fraud. When we checked our Kinecta app, it showed the check was cleared but no imaging of the check was available at that time, so we did not know the check was stolen. It was not until we did our tax return, and found out this fraud on Saturday 2/21/2026. We went to Kinecta as soon as it opened on Monday 2/23/2026 to report this. The Kinecta people at the branch were very nice and helped us complete the paper work. One person told us not to worry, the evidence was convincing because we had the copy of the original check that clearly was altered later. We were told it would take 3 months for this to resolve, and we would get our money back. Three months passed, and we heard nothing from Kinecta, so we called Kinecta, and was told the case has been resolved, and a letter had been sent to us. We did not receive the letter, so we went to the Kinecta Branch the same day to get a copy of this letter. We took a photo of this letter and attached to this review here. This letter does not mention that Kinecta had tried to contact US Bank. It just said that it had determined that no error occurred because of untimely notice. The Kinecta person at the branch told me "untimely" because the check was cashed on 7/11/25, and we did not notice Kinecta until 2/23/26, which was over 6 months after the fraud occurred. So it is our fault and Kinecta will not do anything to help us. At that time, we left the Kinecta branch and file a police report as well as reported this to the FTC (Federal Trade Commission). After that I called Kinecta back, and was told by the Kinecta representative that since we had filed a report with the police and the FTC, the case is worth to be reopened and reconsidered again. We did not hear anything back from Kinecta for three weeks, so today I called Kinecta back, and was told the case had been closed, and the fault is ours because of the "untimely" notice. We asked Kinecta representative why Kinecta did not even try to contact US Bank to recover our stolen money. She replied that Kinecta had contacted US Bank, but US Bank denied the claim. We asked her for Kinecta to send us something in writing that Kinecta actually had contacted US Bank for us, and the Kinecta representative replied "there is nothing there regarding this to send us", so Kinecta can not send us anything in writing that shows Kinecta had actually contacted US Bank to help us recover our stolen money. So we paid #3,183 for this lesion. We hope that this will also help other people to know that Kinecta as a bank puts Kinecta first, and not members first. We will be taking our money somewhere else where we can trust. There are good people working for Kinecta that we will miss, and we truly wish these wonderful people well. Many of these people work hard and want to help people. We will leave Kinecta because Kinecta as a bank does not need us. It just wants people's money with no caring. We also no longer use checks for payments if possible. Now we paid our taxes and other payment online with traceable account transactions.

Fred Snelling, the Wescom Branch Manager at 2871 W. 120th Street in Hawthorne, CA 90250, and a fellow veteran, went above and beyond to address my concerns and align them with a thoughtful, responsible vision for the future. As a 65-year-old Marine veteran, I'll admit I can sometimes have an on-and-off attitude, but Fred understood me perfectly, and I'm deeply grateful for his patience and insight. I don't know if Fred is a Christian, but his kindness and demeanor certainly reflected that spirit. I'm so impressed that I'm eager to refer my son, wife, and best friend to open accounts under Fred's leadership. If you're ever at this branch, be sure to say hello to Fred Snelling--he's someone who truly makes a difference.

You will be waiting a minimum of one hour to be helped because the branch is chronically understaffed. I believe they let this happen because most of the clientele here are working class and and just accept this kind of treatment as the norm or choose not to speak up that it doesn't have to be this way. Even with three indoor banking machines, I've seen more than 20 people in teller lines. Its only saving grace is that bankers and tellers are patient and knowledgeable for the most part when you do finally get to see them.

I went to this bank today with my dad because we were hoping to open a new bank account. When we…read morearrived, there weren't many people waiting, so we thought we would be attended to fairly quickly. We did not have an appointment because a few days earlier, we had spoken with a banker at the El Segundo location who told us that an appointment was not necessary to open a new account, although there could be a short wait. Unfortunately, our experience at the Torrance Sartori location was not very welcoming. I'm not sure if the gentleman assisting customers was the manager, but his customer service did not leave the best impression. He seemed very overwhelmed and, in my opinion, was not very friendly or approachable. At one point, several customers went to let him know that the ATMs inside were not working, and his responses did not sound very polite. I even noticed one woman walk away rolling her eyes and shaking her head after speaking with him, which made me feel like we weren't the only ones who were having an unpleasant experience. Around noon, he came over to "update" us and explained that we most likely would not be seen because customers with appointments had priority. We completely understand that appointments take priority, and we were willing to wait. However, he then continued explaining that he needed to take his lunch and that he was booked for the rest of the day. At that point, we decided to leave and went to a different branch in Hawthorne. Thankfully, our experience there was completely different. We were helped right away by Ms. Cindi Valdivia, who was extremely kind, welcoming, and helpful. She went out of her way to make my dad feel comfortable while helping him open his new account. She even offered my toddler crayons and drawing paper to keep him entertained while she assisted us, which I thought was incredibly thoughtful. Afterward, another banker at the Hawthorne branch asked me how my day was going. I explained what had happened at the Torrance Sartori location, and they told me that, from their understanding, someone trying to open a brand-new bank account should generally be given priority and that they weren't sure why we had been treated that way. Overall, I really appreciate the wonderful customer service we received from Ms. Cindi Valdivia and the other staff at the Hawthorne branch. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same about the Torrance Sartori location. The experience felt very unwelcoming and frustrating, especially when we were simply trying to open a new account. Thank you Cindi for your help you definitely deserve a raise!

That meant both my Navy Fed personal and business cards-among others. So I came into the only branch for miles and miles around with moms in tow. This review is strictly concerning Navy Federal and the Immaculate Reception/ Hail Mary experience I just received in there. Trust me folks when I say I'm no one special, but I sure came out feeling like the son of Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates-with some added melanin quite naturally! So the line to see a teller was practically outside the door. The presence of a Billy Dee Williams (that's a compliment by the way) looking armed security guard kind of smoothed things over, just in the event that hot tempers and hot heads would get too annoyed at what awaited them-a long, long, long line! The line was for a litany of things, ranging from the need to get a new ATM debit card like myself to any number of other issues that the client needed to have taken care of. Luckily enough, I ran across Lauren, who was for lack of a better phrase the ground traffic controller here! When she had a few seconds to breathe, she politely informed me that I could take advantage of an option within the Navy Federal app that would in turn allow her to go and print out a replacement card immediately! In less than 5 minutes I was out the door! Lauren is clearly the CSA or customer service all star of this experience. Thanks Lauren, you are the epitome of class, efficiency, and someone with a heart, and repped the NFCU brand in a top-tier performance!
