    Thank you VyStar for truly caring about my financial well-being! All the employees are so helpful…read moreand take the time to listen to my needs and concerns! They even remember my name when I walk in! Great experience!

    I had a mortgage with Vystar, and then refinanced with them as well. What went wrong? What…read moredidn't. First the good, my mortgage officer team were excellent, in particular Ryan. The rate was also below average. Now the bad...let's see, to refinance I was initially told that I would have to have a certified check...the day before Christmas. When all banks close early. I kid you not. Turns out not to have been true, but I lost a year of my life trying to resolve it. Then, Vystar continued to withdraw money from my bank account for the new AND old mortgages. That's right, they did not stop when they refinanced my mortgage. I eventually caught on after 3-4 months, when they had 40k of my money. Then..and I kid you not, after much hassle they told me that they had sent 2/3 of my money in a check...to a house in Delaware I had not lived in for almost 2 years. Keep in mind that THEY WROTE THE MORTGAGE AND REFINANCED THE HOUSE I ACTUALLY LIVE IN. But wait! I'm not done, they then told me they would not be able to reissue that check for 90 days. That's right. They could not cancel it and send it correctly. But I'm not done! No. When I called and asked for a supervisor...I was told..wait for it..it takes 3 TO 5 BUSINESS DAYS FOR SOMEONE TO RETURN YOUR CALL! Am I kidding? I wish I were. Basically , please avoid this bank at all costs. Looks good on paper, but whether it's nefarious or just incompetence it is obvious that they are not capable of performing even the basic duties of a bank. Buyer beware.

    I've been a Bank of America customer for over twenty years, both personal and business. More than…read more$200K moves through my accounts every year, and not once--ever--has there been a hint of fraud, overdraft, or dispute. I've stayed loyal through mergers, fees, and policy changes because I believed this bank valued long-term relationships. After what just happened at this branch, that belief is gone. I sold my RV for $35K and helped a friend purchase a 2004 Thunderbird for $12K. We went to Truist Bank, only 0.3 miles away, where their branch manager, Stacy, issued two cashier's checks--certified, verified funds. I walked them straight into this BOA branch to deposit them, as I've done countless times. The teller, Marie, was professional and kind. Then the system "recommended" a seven-day hold. I asked why. She said "fraud prevention." I explained that cashier's checks are guaranteed money--the very reason they exist. She said $12K would clear the next day and $7K of the $35K the following day. Frustrating, but fine. Then I asked for a manager. Enter Chris, the assistant manager, with an attitude that screamed indifference. Before hearing a word of context, he started repeating "fraud" like it was a script. I told him my account is spotless--twenty years, zero issues--and that labeling legitimate customers as potential criminals isn't customer service. I asked him to call Truist's branch manager to verify the checks. He refused, saying he was "not allowed." Then, smirking, he told me I could "just cancel the checks and go back if it was a good bank." That comment alone summed up how little he cared. When I pointed out that the system only recommended a hold, not required one, he claimed "management can't override it anymore" and blamed "a new 2024 law." He couldn't cite the law or explain it. He said he'd call the internal department that might lift it--then shrugged and admitted, "They won't." I've managed teams for years, and I would never speak to customers with that tone or lack of respect. The next day, nothing cleared. Not the $12K. Not the $7K. Days later, the entire deposit is still frozen. No follow-up, no explanation--just silence. That's not fraud protection. That's mismanagement hiding behind automation. Look at the reviews for this branch. Like so many others, not one five-star rating. That's not coincidence--it's culture. This is what happens when leadership replaces service with scripts and accountability with algorithms. If a 20-year customer depositing certified checks from a major U.S. bank gets treated like a liability, what chance does a new customer have? I've defended BOA for years. I won't anymore. When the hold finally lifts, I'll close both my personal and business accounts. It takes minutes to open new ones elsewhere--at banks that still believe in human judgment, not automated suspicion. Bank of America once stood for partnership and progress. Now it stands for policies without people, and managers without empathy. To anyone reading: choose a bank that values you. And to Bank of America Corporate--this review isn't just feedback. It's a warning. Customers notice, competitors notice, and the public notices. Your systems don't just hold funds--they're holding back trust.

The lanes are nice and wide. There are two atm machines and the drive up window. The bank teller was super nice and was not wearing a mask. It was around mid day so it wasn't busy at all.
