Absolutely the worst bank ever. They never have enough tellers working…read more Lots of staff standing around looking at the linen up. On average I have to wait 30-40 minutes just to get to a teller, then they are as slow as can be. This branch does not give a damn about it's customers. Time to switch banks!

Since moving to Penticton, I wanted to move my accounts from Westminster Credit Union but alas, no…read morebranches here. Meanwhile, Valley First credit union sent a card to "new resident" offering $200 in bonuses to set up an account and deposit pension. Research says TD and Scotiabank are ranked the highest in our country, so I thought I would take my offer card to them and see if they would match it. Scotia bank at 2210 Main St. got cut first as I was told that the branch nearest us (only 2 in town) was closing as of Sept 1st. It didn't help that while I politely waited for my turn, a person came in the front door and walked directly to the one employee working at her desk and asked, "Are you busy?" The employee invited her in while I was madly gesturing to her that I wanted to see her and had been waiting. She saw me but brought the person in and closed the door. I guess I was too polite. . On to TD, where I waited politely by the "Welcome/Help" desk for assistance. After 10 minutes, an overworked teller indicated she would be with me soon. Meanwhile, I watched two male employees studiously ignoring me from their open-doored offices. Another 5 minutes pass, the same teller arrives at the help desk and I explain that I am new to town and want to talk with someone about moving my accounts, asking some questions and finding out what they might do for me. Help person goes to office of one man, spends about 4 minutes explaining, apparently, what it is I want, then comes back and asks if it is just moving accounts over that I want, because if so, I can do that on line. No, says I, I want to talk with someone, which I repeat twice before she asks if I can come back at one. No, can't. I will be going to get my bonuses from Valley First.

The problems with this branch are 100% related to the manager. He's a weird egotist, never wrong,…read moreand chock full of DEI initiatives. The lineup for this branch is always long, because they hire unqualified people (women), and only ever have one teller open. Be prepared to stand out in the cold some days, and EVERY customer knows this. Try complaining to Scotia headquarters, and their DEI specialist will tell you that you are a stupid person for not behaving like that cattle you are. Check out the google reviews of this particular branch. It's eye-opening. They tried to counter the bad reviews by having their staff leave positives, but you can tell because most of them can barely put together a coherent sentence. The negatives still dwarf these by quite a margin. Overall just a terrible company that doesn't understand what role they are supposed to be playing in the world, and believe they don't need customers to survive. I do wonder what effect DOGE will have on them, as I cannot see that woke Canadian banks weren't getting incentives from somewhere to turn on their customers.
