He is alway incredibly willing to 'go the extra mile' to be helpful---he's an asset to this bank--- he's been there for a few years and they are lucky to have him! As long as he is there, I'll keep banking at Chase Carp!

I opened a new checking account and was assured checks would be coming soon. After three weeks and…read moreno checks, I went into the Carpinteria branch, " I don't know what happened, I will reorder". Three more weeks pass, I go in again, this time I was told I would get complementary next day shipping. Seven days pass. I go in again.... Also, I deposited a large check. Seven day hold, of course. I write a check dated for nine days later (weekends don't count, of course). The check bounces because my check had not cleared! And I was charged $34 fee, This is the worst bank! Staff is not that knowledgeable.

In my years of experience with this branch, the tellers and management are very responsive and helpful. We had a fraud issue (stolen check) and they managed the fraud report and transistion to a new checking account very efficiently. This is a friendly branch and I enjoy walking in there. Every teller is friendly, considerate and helpful.

I called and asked to transfer money from my account to her account and even though it's an in bank transfer, they won't do it. Their manager in Carpinteria, Jose is a piece of !!! and actually hung up on me knowing that this was an emergency situation because I was upset and he refused to help. I might add that she is a Type 1 diabetic and needless to say the bank doesn't care if she eats or not. Dies or not. Screw this bank. I refuse to bank here any longer.

We are sitting in the lobby trying to get my sisters estate handled. Compassion? No. Empathy? No. Professionalism? No. Cohesive messaging?

I needed personal assistance to remove a block on my account, and she navigated it efficiently and flawlessly in a timely manner. I was very impressed with her knowledge and skills, she had me in and out in no time! She is an invaluable asset to Bank of America, and is most assuredly a reason to remain loyal to this banking institution. Thank you so much for employing such a stellar Assistant Manager. She would make an astounding Bank Manager.

I have been a customer for decades and the service at this branch makes me want to move to another bank entirely. Made an appointment for a routine notary service and the gentleman who "helped" me truly did not understand anything. Could not wrap his brain around the concept that 2 documents needed to be notarized for 2 separate people. Since it was the same document he kept insisting he could only notarize one. Additionally, he said he could not be a witness or allow my husband to be a witness even though the document clearly stated both were acceptable options. Had to leave and pay to hire a mobile notary. 0 stars.

Been a wells Fargo Customer for the past 18 years. I dont usually write reviews but this time I…read morecannot keep quiet. Branch Manager Micheal Velasquez has has to be one of he most unprofessional managers I have ever dealt with in my 18 years of being a Loyal customer to the institution. I tried to withdraw money from a loan ( granted by them) and instead of being treated like a customer, I was spoken to and treated like a criminal in regards to my personal information not lining up. The details are long and I understand and appreciate concern but I can tell you this is not how a professional handles the situation. Instead of being a professional and giving me options to resolve the discrepancies with my information to facilitate the release of the money Micheal had no problem loosing me as a customer when I said I would close all my accounts. I said this because I felt discriminated with the way I was being treated. He never presented options in a kind manner and if anything he raised his voice and spoke to in an elevated tone ( like he was my father or something ). After 18 years of business I will be looking to take my business somewhere else or at least take most of my business to a bank that actually appreciates their customers and doest make them feel like criminals. I did tell him that its people like him why banks will die and blockchain technology will take over. I have also filled a complaint with Corporate ( something I have maybe done one other time in my life against any employee from any business ever). Wells Fargo needs to train their managers how to handle these situations in a much much much more kind a professional manner. Update : 1/30/26 I called Wells Fargo ( customer service) . They said the validity of my Identity should have never been questioned after I provided proper documentation. I provided my driver license and Debit card information. Makes me question even more If I was being discriminated against . Update : 2/1/26 I have been reached out by the Wells Fargo team to get an understanding of the situation that occurred. I also went to another branch and the branch manager was very nice and understanding ( I should have gotten her name ) she works on upper state street . Her and Christopher Cooper were so nice and apologized for the situation that occurred at the other Wells Fargo bank . From my gathering and speaking to other ppl in the company, they can't understand why things went down the way they did . I do appreciate that people in the company have taken the time to reach and see what happened. Investigation is still ongoing. I will be reversing my one star review to a 3 star review. Tho I still think they need to train their management staff to handle things differently ( at the Montecito branch )

Closing my accounts!…read more Have been a customer of WellsFargo for over 12 years now and based on my interactions w/ management at this location - specifically a manager named Nick I'm done with them. I have 2 accounts + mortgages both personal and commercial with wells and I'm going to go through all the time consuming steps to sever ties with this institution on all lines of business. Ive additionally reached out to Alexi Rami who is the local group branch manager for Santa Barbara but he has also failed to even acknowledge calls and emails. Done with this bank - it obviously has zero respect for even long standing customers.
