The downtown branch of Wells Fargo 'lost' my paycheck around Christmas time. As a result, my wife and I were without food, and functionally missed the Christmas-celebration as a result. While customer service manager Deborah Kurz made every effort to feign concern, ultimately she was unable to provide with me any information as to her branches gross-mismanagement and negligent disregard for sensible banking practices. No information was provided to me as to why my paycheck had been lost, and Wells Fargo has not been forthright in the least in providing information that they are required--by law, to provide.

Instead of admitting fault, Wells Fargo management and Deborah Kurz have tried to defer blame time and again; yet time and again they have been unable to provide me with even the most basic information. I have requested a full-accounting for my lost paycheck over Christmas, as well as a full-accounting of the legal rationale for Wells Fargo's inconsistent policies pertaining to the handling of paychecks and holds placed on them.

Deborah Kurz might give serious consideration to growing up and taking honest responsibility for the gross managerial incompetence of her branch. Instead of subtly manipulating your customers to defer responsibility from yourself--or subtly avoiding customers, why doesn't Wells Fargo try treating their customers with involvement, concern and honesty. In spite of the fact that they ruined our Christmas, I treated them and their branch with kindness and respect. So far as 'giving them credit,' they will receive due credit from me 'the customer,' when they actually perform their job with competence and dignity.

UNPROFESSIONAL & DISCOURTEOUS BEHAVIOUR OF PERSONNEL IN WELLS FARGO BRANCH

I have been a customer with Wachovia Bank for the last 10 years, with a checking account & safe deposit locker. We have opened the account in Gunn Highway, Tampa branch and subsequently shifted to Riverview about 3 years back as we moved here. As long as the Banking was with Wachovia, it was very good with a nice customer service, courteous staff, etc. After it has changed to Wells Fargo, it became very uncustomerly & discourteous in the branch here at US Highway 301 branch, particularly on weekends.
Recently I had been to the branch to operate my safe deposit locker, on a Saturday and had to experience a very nasty experienc. There are no more personnel to greet the customers when they walk into the branch. After I saw the personnel banker - Jason, I have informed him that I came to operate my safe deposit locker. I was informed that he has an appointment and will help in 10 to 15 mts. He suggested that the other personal banker - James can help me. I have waited standing to notice that Jason has received his expected appointment customer after about 15 mts. and has entered his room with her in closed door meeting. I have wondered if within that period Jason could have helped me to open my safe deposit locker and finish my operation which will be hardly for a couple of minutes. But as I was told I waited for James, the other personal banker to help me.
After sometime James has approached me and enquired what he can help me. I have told him that I have to operate my safe deposit locker, for which he told that he has no access to safe deposit lockers and I have to wait for Jason. I was very upset for this, because when I very specifically told Jason that I have to operate my safe deposit locker, the moment I walked into the bank, he didnot tell me that he is the only one who has access to safe deposit locker and I have to wait for him, instead he advised me that James can help as he has his appointment with another customer. Now after I have waited for about half an hour, the other personal banker - James is informimg me that I have to wait for Jason, who is inside his room with another customer. I was very deliberately misled and made to wait for almost about an hour for Jason, who opened the locker so that I can operate. I was very frustrated, postponing all my other work & schedules, just to wait for Jason so that I can operate my safe deposit locker, which is hardly about 5 mts. work.
At no point I was offered an apology or any courteous word by either Jason or Jmaes, for wasting my time & upsetting my schedules. I have never ever meted this kind of very unprofessional & discourteous treatment from my bank, for the last almost 10 years since I have opened the accounts. The personal banker - Mr. David at Gunn Highway. Tampa barnch used to be very friendly & courteous helping in all my banking needs. Again when we moved to Riverview about 3 years back soem of the managers whom we met - Ms. Meredith were very friendly & helpful in our shifting from Tampa to Riverview branches in Wachovia & also in subsequent transition to Wells Fargo. But these two personal bankers are the most unprofessional, discourteous personnel I have ever met in Wachovia or Wells Fargo, and for that matter in any of my Banking experience, as my main Banker being Bank of America with which we have all our baking including our children for the last 13 years.
In the current comepetetive hard times, financial institutions like banks cannot afford to have this type incidents happening to their old loyal customers and they cannot afford to have such unprofessional personnel like Jason & James.

I go to the location in Surprise, AZ on Reems & Waddell. I have visited other locations (like the on up the street in Fry's store) but have never been treated as well as at this location. I am always greated with a smile everytime i walk in, the manager even knows me by name. the tellers are great and the banker that helps is always informative. This is the best bank in the world.

I went toady to get my document Notorized, first the lady who greeted us at the door was doing only because she hadd to. I asked her where would I notorize my document and she asked me to have a seat in horrible and arrogant way.

so I went and waited and then when she finally came to notorize my paper,she sat me down said hello how are you from the tip of her nose, and then she looked at my document and said that my document had a photo on it and that their policy had changed andd she couldn't do it for me, I told her I have done this many times at wellsfargo, she said sorry we don't, with bad grin onn her face,telling me that the post office is where to those, I went all the way to the post office only to know that the post office doesn't do them, waisting my whole day, to find out AT THE end that they DO NOTORIZE my kind of document even though it had a photo on it, it was only for identification purpouses for an exam.

The person who did notorize it for me went through the trouble of calling their Hotline, but she wasn't in the mood to do so I guess. on the contrary she insisted on her so wrong opinion of not notorizing it, not knowing it for sure!.

Personally this is the FIRST time ever in a wellsfargo bank I get treated so bad, which was a shocker to me today.
SHE SHOULDN'T BE WORKING AT A BANK ASPECIALLY WITH HER BAD MOOD AND unacceptable costumer service ATTITUDE, giving the bank a bad reputation like that.

That is the last time I will ever visit that site.

Teller transferred my money incorrectly to the wrong person and I complained to service manager who blamed me instead. Very unprofessional service manager who raised her voice at me and told me I can complain all I want but she cant help me.
Didn't apologize for the inconvenience and I have to wait 5-10 business days for them to get me my money back.
I recommend you bank somewhere else.

We used to love this location service and kept a pretty large amount of $ for years with South Trust and Wachovia until Wells Fargo took over.  I asked to void a few fees ( we have never asked to pay any fees with other banks for years!) at Trace Crossing office.  A super friendly young teller told me that he had to ask his boss and call me back by the next day.  I called this office a few days later, but he was not available gone for lunch and never called me back.  Well, it was about only $20 fees, but I closed my account and brought my funds to my current bank ( no fees and easy to deal with).  A few days later, somebody, branch manager or whoever left me a message at home to ask if something was wrong...too late!  Good bye!

Customer service at this location is TERRIBLE!!! Never anyone that is available to help you when you call and never a manager available. My daughter had a graduation check mailed to her from her father. the check was not a wellsfargo check but drawn off a credit union here in AZ. I figured if she signed the check over to me wells Fargo would cash it with my daighter's ID and her present...NOPE!! i have done this in the past with no issues but because they wanted her to open an account with them and she did not I felt as though they just chose not to help her because they told her to take the check to another bank!! totally unacceptable being that I have been a long time customer. the check was only for 100 dollars too and in my account I had thousands!! Also..talk about trying to cold sell!! I think I have gotten more offers at the bank to invest, change, apply etc etc than i get at a car lot! I feel as though I am attacked everytime I go to the bank and I always go to the drive up tellar...except for that one incident when I went inside with my daughter. I have been looking into a credit union recently and after almost 15 years with WF I am going elsewhere.

I have dealt with Wells Fargo for years for my personal mortgage banking and have always received solid and reliable professional service.  A year ago I began handling banking for an elderly aunt and was so impressed by her Wells Fargo branch (in another state) that I transferred all her accounts to their care.  Then I began working with this local branch to consolidate my aunt's financial investments and they helped me make it as streamlined and trouble free and cost free as possible.  The cage tellers are always very polite and meticulously accurate in their duties.  All branch employees are always able to offer additional services for convenience, to reduce fees and costs and overhead, improve return, etc.  Exceptional service at this branch!

this branch had great service a few months ago, now it is totally different. Keith is cold and unhelpful and that made me look at the other reviews, I was not suprised to see the problems arising at this bank. Sometimes you call and they tell you there is no manager even to be found, why arent there two? So one can got to lunch or a meeting etc?

This is the worst customer service I ever seen in my life. This same bank 6 months ago was giving perfect service, Since now day by day it's getting worst, people's walking out from the doors talking bad about this bank services. The lady name ANITA is working there acting as a manager, I have no clue is that true or not. If its true then that's really unfortunate,That lady having soo much attitude,, so Rude and very unprofessional . I worked with customer services in hospitality from last 15 years I know the guest expectations and who to handle the situation and even who to talk to our colleagues. She is shouting very loud  make the guest embrace and showing them attitude and insult them in front of other customers. She really don't deserve the WellsFargo. I requested to the branch manager Abdullah to give her some training. For me it's really bad customer service never back if I have another option.

I was in the drive thru making a deposit and a teller by the name of Johnathan helped me out. He told me that I was getting monthly service fees in my checking account and told me to sit down with a personal banker to get them waived and change my accounts. I never thought there would be people that would care about that. THANKS!

On Saturday, February 16, 2013, my wife and I went into the branch located on the corner of Mesa and Resler St in El Paso Texas.  We were seen by Hazel Guerrero a personal banker.

I proceeded to explain why were were there, and she immediately had an attitude and starting spouting things about the law and other such nonsense, not really listening to our concerns regarding some fees that were on my husbands account, it was a very stressing meeting considering when you go into a branch and are looking for assistance, and your met with blatant disregard it makes it even more difficult to get your point across, needless to state this young lady not only did not help us she went as far to say that this is not their problem and that my husband and I should be at the branch that opened his account, I was floored.  I was under the misconception that Wells Fargo is a big corporation, and that I would be helped in any Wells Fargo Branch, but according to Ms. Guerrero, that is not the case, then after upsetting me every more she got up and went and got her manager, which was a waste of time because he did nothing and literally stood by her as she told my husband and I to have a nice day with a snide smirk on her face.  This branch needs some re-training on Customer Service Skills.  I will never go back to that Branch and I will tell everyone how badly I was treated!!!!

The person who wrote me the check is my fiancée, HE'S an account holder.  At which point she gave me a curt " have a nice day".   I called my fiancée and told him he needs to bank elsewhere.  Unbelievable.

MOST UNPROFESSIONAL BANK MANAGER!!!

by ginoromo, Feb. 16, 2013

The manager Javier Jara was rude, . I was trying to cash a check that had two letters in my FIRST name mispelled. The manager said there's NO way I will cash this. I had the check corrected & initialed by my boss & went back to the branch 1 1/2 hrs later. As the teller was handing me my money,Javier Jara called her and said NOT to give me the money. He apparently had some unfounded issue with me, as he never saw the corrected check and still instructed the teller not to cash it.(Discrimination?)As I was leaving the bank with no money in hand Javier Jara YELLED across the bank floor at me. He yelled that HE will not be bullied and I needed to get a new check in order for it to be cashed.  Unfortunately, the teller had already stamped the check on the back indicating it had been cashed, so I was not able to take it to another branch to be cashed. I am sure that I could have gone to another branch with no problem.

We also have encountered the pushy teller named Aleigha. I thought I was being "punked" when she was shaking my hand and offering every service under the sun when all I wanted was to make a deposit. More recently, after WF charged many bogus fees, we tried dealing with Kira R., who will not return phone messages after multiple attempts.  Ultimately we closed our account and took our business to a credit union.  This is one horrible bank.

This branch has totally lost it after the acquisition from Wachovia. Impossible to get answers to even simple questions. I have tried since October to confirm that a Power of Attorney to my accounts has been registered by the bank. No answers on the phone. No one responsible present at the bank able or willing to get me the answer. The morale at this branch appear to be very low.
