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.

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!!!

First Citizens Bank lacks communication… First Citizens Bank lacks communication as to what happens after paying off your loan! They produce a letter that attempts to explain their procedure to receive your title the day after the loan is paid off. But don't mail the procedures letter until after they electronically submit the request to DMV, which could be up to 10 days after! Go figure it took them the full 10 days to electronically send to DMV! So I received their procedures letter 2 days after they electronically submitted to DMV, and it states that the DMV could take 30 days to process. After speaking w 2 representatives neither of them had a solution as to why in today's world of instantly taking your money, that it takes them 10 days to email/electronically send a notice? Why they don't mail their procedures letter until after they send the email/electronic notice, instead of the date it's printed/produced? Guess they are no longer the small town bank! Rant over!

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.

Would not recommend any investment with First Citizens Bank I have been working for this company more than 5 years. I would not recommend any investment with First Citizens Bank. They are the worst performer on the market based on the customer and employee reviews, because all smart people have already left this company. Very poor management, toxic, politic based, cheep environment. Lots of lawsuits with the companies they acquire. They do not maintain quality employees and management only cares about their own bonus. HR does not exist and covers management wrong doing. During my career, I have been volunteering and working hard and doing a great job, may manager was Orlando.Torres. I was never reworded, no promised bonuses. Their politics to keep people scared, instead of rewording for a good job. They changed my remote work from home status to work in the office and without any explanation. They were sending emails to all current employees and asking people on writing positive revues to cover up their chaos. I have been dismissed during taking medical leave on PTO and my PTO has never been paid. Overall, I would not recommend this job to a friend.
