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 🤯🤬

Awful Experience My bank was gobbled up by First Citizens Bank. First, we had to buy checks, which were expensive. Then the debit card came late, almost a week after the old bank card expired. I'm disabled and buy everything, even groceries on line. So a week of hunger. The interest rate is lower that my previous bank. I was charged $50 fee on my premiere checking. Why, I have no idea. I checked fee schedules for the bank and never found a fee that high on their site. I looked under complaints about the bank and they were all highly negative.

What a scam you deposit cash in the ATM… What a scam you deposit cash in the ATM because you need to pay a bill and they hold your money won't be doing this ever again!!!

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!!

First Citizens Bank Customer Failure I had a breach in my bank account. Closed my old account and opened a new account. It's been a month and still no new debit card. My local bank can not give me a date on a new debit card. Telling me the bank is running behind on card replacements. Was told by a teller, this replacement could take a couple on months. UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! This is a totally FAILURE from a National Bank. One wonders how many other customers are affected by this? Who uses checks anymore? I can only access my money by going into the bank and seeing a teller. Who wants to carry cash? How many places are no cash, plastic only. First Citizens could care less about my problem. Close your accounts and move your money. First Citizens Bank has failed at the very basics of customer service banking.
