F&M Trust is our bank of choice. When we moved back to this area after being away for a few years,…read moreit was recommended we go with F&M Trust, and I'm very happy we did. The Norland Avenue branch is very close to us, and is where we do the majority of our banking. When we opened up our account, it was easy, options were fully explained, and we felt good about the entire experience. We ran into a snag in getting our money transferred from our old bank in Florida to here, but the woman who helped me that day was so very nice and got it all worked out. She had excellent customer service skills. Panic mode was starting to set in with me that day, but she assured me it would get taken care of, and it did. My husband goes there to deposit his paychecks, as he doesn't have direct deposit. He reports they are always very friendly to him and he rarely has to wait in line. I have full confidence and trust in F&M Trust.

This is totally ridiculous. I had cashed the same kind of check weeks ago.

NO wonder I had previously removed all my funds from your credit union due to taken an amount of money because my savings account did not have any movement. That is the reason for a savings account to save money.

Patriot wanted to charge thousands of dollars to even process that application, which would be the equivalent of the money saved in the first place. They treat my spouse just fine, because he is a he, it seems. Same credit score and work history as me. There would be no other reason than my sex to deny a refinance. Met someone at the bank a while ago to conduct official business. The man involved is Black. Two white ladies interrupt our meeting to warn us of people scamming others and offering "protection". The staff has always been friendly so this was indeed surprising. They would likely not have come in if the man wasn't Black. Sexist AND racist. It seems this group has adopted the new federal guidelines imposing these "wonderful family values". The name never occured to me through the maga hell we're all being forced to live through since ignorance and a loathing for reading abounds in small towns. But, it all makes sense now, in retrospect. Read the constitution, "Patriots". If banks begin closing females and people of color's accounts, this bank would be the first one to do it. God help us all. Maga will lose.

The Keurig in the small waiting area is also a plus. The tellers are always smiling and helpful. The personal bankers are a different story. We have been able to get all of our business done, but they (we have met with two different people) don't give you a feeling of confidence. That feeling that you want to expand the relationship. Such is the state of service these days. It's true that most of our banking is done online, but I still like to pop into a branch sometimes. Call me old school. Funny story: I have gotten rolls of quarters here twice and both times one of my "quarters" was a nickel.

The recent Orrstown/Peoples Bank merger is a shining example of a financial institution that has a…read morecomplete disregard for their customers. As an example, I use Quicken to track all of my financial information, and there has been no communication from Orrstown on the issues with relinking accounts. The customer service team members one connects with can provide no consistent, correct answers and the bank is now saying they *may* have a fix with Quicken by the 18th (the merger went live on the 12th). Since there had been no communication from Orrstown with instructions, I used the standard processes within Quicken to relink my accounts. That hasn't worked well at all. I am now left with having to deactivate my accounts and reactivate them, with the potential of having to sort through years of records to have them accurately reflect transactions and balances. This merger has been a complete customer service failure in that there are several examples of Orrstown's failure to communicate even the simplest of instructions, like "This will be the new URL you need to use when we reopen on Tuesday". I assumed they would at least publish those changes, but apparently, that was too much. The instructions in the booklet they published did not work (log in on the old URL, and you will be redirected). I had to Google the new URL, which is no big deal, but a simple, accurate communication from Orrstown would have been a nice touch. I also assumed they would pre-plan on potential issues with nationally recognized standard Financial Management Software like Quicken, which Orrstown customers widely use. But sadly, no, no preplanning happened. Their help files do not accurately represent nor speak to the information or screens presented online. And now there is complete silence from Orrstown. Maybe it is time for those involved to be removed from their positions, for the Board of Directors to look at who was responsible for overseeing this merger, and for that person or persons to resign. This merger should have never gone the way it has, and the continued customer service failures seem to indicate deeply rooted issues. Orrstown, you have again failed your customers through incompetent customer service, the inability to properly plan, and your complete failure to effectively communicate with your customers. Shame on you. This isn't the first issue I've had with Orrstown Customer Service, but I do hope it is the last.

If I Could Give Zero Stars, I Would: Orrstown Bank Charges…read moreAbsurd Fees and Treats Loyal Customers Like Trash. Since merging with Codorus Valley Bancorp (PeoplesBank) in July of 2024, Orrstown has lost every trace of its hometown values, what used to feel like a community bank now acts like a cold, profit-hungry corporation. Someone I know personally--who has been a loyal Orrstown Bank customer for over seven years with zero prior issues was recently slammed with $150 in charges for simply transferring money from a savings account to a checking account. That's $10 per transfer, all taken at once, without any warning, alert, or notice. Just gone. This wasn't reckless spending--this was money being moved to cover rent and other monthly expenses. And instead of acting with integrity, Orrstown chose to quietly drain the account. Their website claims they offer "the best value" and "strive to keep service fees low." That's false. These kinds of outdated, predatory policies don't reflect a bank that values people, they reflect one that profits from quietly punishing customers for using their accounts. The worst part? When the customer tried to resolve the issue, one branch acknowledged the possibility of a refund based on the account's perfect history--but said the request had to go through their home branch. Enter the New Holland, PA branch manager, who was not only completely dismissive, but actually refused to give his name, saying, "I won't tell you my name again because you're going to slander me online." That kind of behavior is beyond unprofessional--it's cowardly. It's what happens when a manager knows they're doing wrong and doesn't want to be held accountable. Let's be clear: this bank took $150 from a loyal customer with zero notice and refused to make it right. The attitude, the policy, and the refusal to offer even basic decency all point to a bank that does not care about the people who trust it. Orrstown Bank: you need to fix this. Reverse the fees. Hold your staff accountable. And if you're serious about customer service, stop letting managers act like gatekeepers instead of problem-solvers. To anyone considering Orrstown: don't do it. There are better banks out there, banks that won't treat you like a nuisance for asking to access your own money.
