I was a banker for 32 years and have to… I was a banker for 32 years and have to say this is the WORST experience I have ever received. They held my wire for over 6 weeks. Granted it was my error that my paperwork was incorrect on my account ( that they didn’t notice or care about for 2 years…) however they chose to hold my funds rather than just returning it to the sending bank. Would not return phone calls or release my money. I came on here to give a review a low and behold… 2 and 3 star reviews (which is GENEROUS). They treat their own employees like garbage and couldn’t care less about customers or customer service. Disgusting 🤮 service and worse customer experience! I gave them one star because I wasn’t able to give them negative stars… There are so many institutions to choose from… why bother choosing them 🤯🤬

Receiving text message but no account I have received two (2) text messages from First Citizens Bank. On 5/24/23 a text message about they noticed unusual activity on my account. On 6/14/23 a text asking if a transaction was scheduled for $973.41on 6/13/23. I do not have and never had an account with First Citizens Bank.

DON'T BE SCAMMED AND ROBBED BY THIS… DON'T BE SCAMMED AND ROBBED BY THIS BANK!!! This bank will side with anyone who wants to pull money from your bank account and will not have their customers back even with proof. They charged me $35 to stop a company from taking money out of my account because I closed my account with the company a year prior. They said to pay the fee and it would stop them from taking my money every other week. It did not stop the charges and they sided with the company instead of their customer who has proof of closing the account and who also paid them to not give out my money.

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!

Friendly and Professional My local First Citizens branch has big bank perks with a small town feel. So friendly that my friends comment on it when we leave the drive through. I recommend them to everyone!
