Have been a customer of Webster since moving to Middlebury about 7 years ago.
Was initially pretty happy with it's customer service, but no longer.
My wife's Debit card was allowed to expire without any notification and never received a new one.
Had to go to the bank to get a new one and after 2 weeks, received the new one.
Tried using the phone system to activate - 3 times. Did not work.
So went to the Southbury branch only to learn that activating the card is self service - Only!!
Clerk said the phone system works for some people! Suggested we use the ATM. They have no indoor ATM so me and an assistant mgr went around the building to use the drive-thru ATM, dodging cars.
The ATM allowed the card to be activated and I changed the PIN, but the system would not allow me to see my accounts or get cash or whatever.
So the Asst Mgr apologized and when I asked if the screw ups were associated with the merger he replied yes and there were several things that were being sorted out.
This is THREE weeks after the merger! How could basic customer banking transactions not work?
I have not received any correspondence from Webster advising of issues and the clerk at the branch attitude pretty much summed it all up.
"Phone works for some people"!
Really? What if it was an emergency and my needed to withdraw cash?
We tried that at a Chase Bank and couldn't withdraw anything just got an error msg.
Terrible. read more
