I call over to see if I can cash it without an account. Sure, it's a $7 service fee. When I'm there, I'm told to cash this type of check is $8. Whatever. I endorse the check and then I'm told Chase cannot cash it. I was not really given a reason except this check has a watermark line on the back. The teller acknowledged it is a Chase Bank check. He stamps it "Endorsement Cancelled."

Shocking abusive experience. I am a blind person who opened an account, and was treated kindly at…read moreopening. A month later they demanded I close my account, because as a blind woman I have to have an assistant help me with the push for banking online. There is no way for me to see the screen. Many elderly people need assistance with computer stuff in general. The bank demanded I pick up a check within 24 hours because I refused to sign my assistant as a joint account holder (Any of her debts could take my money. An absurd suggestion.), or I had to give her the banks version of full power of attorney. Insane!!! I suggested a limited financial power of attorney. They said no, only their form granting full financial power of attorney. They were upset she has my SS#. So does every employee of EBMUD, PGE, Xfinity, TMobile, Any Bank, etc, Everywhere. These numbers are no longer treated with any protection. They would not even accept my adult son as a financial power of attorney. Mechanics Bank care only about dumping fraud liability on the customer. They said, because I'm blind, I'm too much risk to have as a customer. Ryan was extremely aggitated, though he had been kind when openning the accounts. He harassed me the next morning with a call every hour, (4X) to come and pick up my check to close my accounts. I was a high deposit customer. They had frozen my funds, so I could not take an Uber. I felt so pressured, I walked there exhausted after worrying all night where I could find a bank that would take a blind person. I could have tripped and broken a hip or cracked my head. These people care nothing about their customers. What a disgusting lack of Decency or any humanity. Stay away from any branch of this bank, especially if you are elderly, and may someday need assistance!!!

I had a savings account at Mechanics Bank in Pinole, CA. I…read morehad the account for several years. I had close to $1200 in the account this year. I had over $1100 the last few years. Their statements showed I was receiving a penny a month in interest! That would be 12 cents per year interest. I don't know what the percentage is - maybe 1/1000%? Is that legal? I saved my statements since I think no one will believe this. I cancelled the savings account a few months ago. The person on line in front of me was also cancelling their account.

But Rachel made her way down the line asking each person what they came in for. That's fairly standard, but then she asked me some deeper questions about my banking habits, and informed me that this monthly chore that I dread (getting a cashier's check to pay my dad's rent) can be automated free of charge. B of A will mail my dad's landlord a check every month, a week before it's due. Because the manager went the extra mile, I'll never have to wait in that dreadful line again.

I got a letter from them saying that they had signed me up for Identity Theft Protection product that I never signed up for - got two letters so they signed me up for this twice and they are going to reimburse me for the costs of this. I was supposed to receive the payments in January 2024 but have not yet and when I call to follow up the payments are still pending. So they cannot even make restitution in a timely manner. I am glad I switched from this bank. I am usually a very low key customer and had banked with them for years but this signing people up for products that they do not want is totally unethical and a really poor business practice. It is dishonest. About this branch though - I alway got good service here and the people are really nice so I will add stars for that. The tellers here are really nice. I am adding a star for the people who work in this branch.

I was profiled and discriminated against at this bank branch. I was written a personal check to…read moredeposit as work for hire, and after being inappropriately asked "what did you do for all this money?!" I respectfully replied "I don't need to disclose that information" and added "do you also ask white businessmen what they do for money when they bring in a big check?" They then told me "make sure you know what to do with this money, don't spend it all before it clears because you'll be responsible for that should this be fraud." They also asked me 3 times if I knew who wrote me the check, AFTER I disclosed that the person who wrote the check contacted his bank ahead of time to clear and approve this check number AND dollar amount. THE DISRESPECT HERE. WOW. Unfortunately they then lied to my face, told me I could deposit the check and gave me the dates when the funds would clear into my account. I thought everything was alright because I walked away with a receipt in hand, all to then be chased down on the street being told "you have to come back so we can contact the senders bank" .... But they already processed my check officially! I sat for 20-30 more minutes all for them to tell me "we made a decision as a bank that we cannot deposit this check after" .... Which was a load of crap. I've banked with Wells Fargo for over 20 years, and they just lost a customer. They will be receiving an official complaint as I'm filing a discrimination claim. This kind of treatment and judgement is unacceptable.

I am grateful to the folks in this branch, while still having reservations about some of the larger shifts within how Provident handles certain functions.

After more than 20 years of being a loyal citi card user I am disappointed to find that my account was closed and my close to 300K Thank you points seized.
