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.

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!

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!

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.

No longer service oriented I started working with this bank because they sold me on the idea of a large bank with a small bank feel. Customer relations were the priority. That has definitely changed. The personal banker position has been a revolving door in the last few years and the upper echelon don't really seem to care about their clientele like they used to. I recently set up my credit card to autopay the minimum payment through their online system. Fast forward 6 months and my card is cancelled. I'm told that the autopay that I set up online is only temporary. I'm behind on my payments so they cancelled my card. Nowhere on the website does it say the autopay is temporary and it's just such an absurd way to set that up. I requested that they reinstate my card and I would bring it current and set up a permanent autopay directly with someone in the bank. They refused and offered me a card with a worse APR and a fifth of the credit line that I had. Ridiculous. On the heels of this, they also cancelled my line of credit when it was time to renew it stating that I didn't pay it down fast enough. Of course, nothing in their paperwork states that I needed to do so and my personal banker at the time didn't explain this either. I asked them to reconsider and told them I would make every effort to pay it down faster and was denied. I'm in the process of closing out all my accounts and I will never work with this bank ever again. I don't recommend that anyone do business with this bank.
