New Fees After 4.5 years as a customer, I received a new $15 fee for online banking. The only reason I am a First Citizens customer was for Free Checking. Customer Service said I could go to a branch and have them switch my accounts to a different online banking system with very little difference with no fee. Could they make it more difficult. AVOID THIS BANK. Worst in class technology and branches closed on Saturdays. Convenience is clearly not a consideration for them. They are so bad, I get my SBA loans through other institutions and just use their checking in case I need a local branch. If they want to nickel & dime small businesses, I'll take multiple accounts and tens of thousands of dollars to a new bank. First Citizens is NOT SMALL BUSINESS FRIENDLY.

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.

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!

Ignore all bad reviews Ignore all bad reviews, First Citizens is a great service. Those nay-sayers would rather spend 30 minutes on hold at Wells Fargo. I've had nothing but great experiences here.

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!
