              06/21/2023

              I had issues my electronic banking account since the begging of May. Was speaking to a Woman named *********************** who has now been ignoring my emails in order to get my account working again. She had indicated it was on Zelles court therefore I should try to call them. My last contact from her was on May 23rd; Ive written 3 emails since then. No response. Of note Ive had this account for over 15 years, with NEVER having issues with any incoming or outgoing Zelle transactions. If youre considering getting this bank, DO NOT. In general, they take forever to answer calls, open certain hours of the day and are not present when you need them. Worst bank ever.
