I would not recommend this bank to any… I would not recommend this bank to any contractor's, I opened a personal account to see how they operate before changing from bank of America to them with my business account.Well deposit a check that is from first citizens Bank client to my account takes 2days or longer bank of America I deposit before 9pm it's in account in morning I couldn't imagine how long it would take first citizens to clear a check from another bank if you're a contractor getting up front money you'll be screwed guess I will keep my account with bank of America!!! Also first citizens online banking app worst app I've ever come across!!

Would go with a different bank Would go with a different bank. Called customer service to resolve issues only to be told to call the local branch, call/go to the local branch to be told to call customer service. Credit cards have horrible interest rates and rewards/perks. Their online banking and app was barely usable for months on end. Fees for every little transaction. Horrible customer interactions in the branches. They are not military friendly, and I have tons of issues managing my accounts when deployed/overseas.

Mortgage nightmare I was given a preapproval letter for a mortgage. When it came time to close they could not figure out why my DTI was too high. It took them 7 days to figure out that they had placed 2 car loans on my application while I only had 1. They delayed my closing date twice, I will have to pay thousands for an Airbnb while I wait for the pushed closing date, and they refuse to provide compensation for their mistake. This is absolutely unacceptable and immoral for a company of this size to not pony up for a mistake they had made.

What once was a good bank has turned to… What once was a good bank has turned to crap!!! Paid off a loan…overpaid bc that’s the info attorney that was given by bank. Called to find out where my refund is bc it’s been 16 days!!! Was informed well we hold the funds for 10 business days so it will be mailed after that times has lapsed. WHY…told that’s the bank policy no good reason except they get to keep everyone’s money for 10 plus days! Complete BS! If I owed them they would charge interest daily! Ridiculous! I actually give them a zero!

So Happy this is MY BANK! As always I am again sad to see so many poor reviews. I have been with First Citizens for many years. I sent a message through my account and even though they say they would respond in 24 hours, my response was less than 8 hours. I feel like they are ALWAYS watching out for me.
