GBUsing as a savings for my daughter Laurel Road was suggested to me by a coworker as a savings account for my daughter. The process to open an account was very straightforward and quick. The true test will be in the actual banking processes! So far deposits from my own checking account have been easy, it just takes a few days to process. 10/10 as of now overall!

GBI had a great experience with them I had a great experience with them. I used a physician loan and they had a significantly better rate than I could get elsewhere. Their portal is straight forward to upload documents and my agent was always available to help and explain things. The only sticky thing was setting up auto-pay as it was a bit confusing between them and Key bank, which they fall under. A quick call to customer service cleared that up though.

GBGood rates, horrible service Randomly locks your account for weeks on end every time you try to withdraw money (to accounts you have already verified). They were able to reverse it relatively quickly the first time when they requested documents for verification, but it's been locked again for upwards of two weeks and the person on the phone just says "there's no information we need at the moment, the fraud department is conducting a security review and your account will be locked for up to 30 days." They even sent me a letter saying I had "confirmed fraud on my account", which I hadn't. The interest rate is good, but it's for a fundamentally different product than advertised since you won't have easy access to your money. EDIT: The day after I posted this, they unlocked it. so I guess, if you want access to your money, just leave a 1-star review! EDIT 2: Just to be clear, they never requested any information from me to "ensure my identity" during this, instead they tried to get the review taken down by submitting a clarification request on this platform, which would have auto-deleted my review after 3 days. Hey at least whoever monitors these is doing more work than their fraud department... EDIT 3: they just sent me a letter saying they're closing my account. Do your sanity a favor and avoid Laurel Road

GBGreat Experience It’s been a pleasure setting up our new account. Everything has worked out just fine along with a bonus and continued rewards for depositing our checks. I never have to wait long to speak to an agent. and they all have been friendly. I left a bank because we were not getting good service. Their online banking works really well.

GBWe used Laurel Road to purchase our… We used Laurel Road to purchase our home using a physician loan. Overall the process was ok but I think unnecessarily stressful towards the end. We didn’t get the Clear to Close until 2 days before closing. It seems like a lot of the things holding up the process could have been anticipated. On the bright side they were responsive and I got a good internet rate.
