“It truly is the best attention that Ms. Elizabeth Salazar, an excellent professional, can give you. It helps you without any interest. She doesn't care about your nationality, race or color, she will always have a space to help you. You leave the bank with all active zelle, mobile ticket, it helps you create an anything goes anything user. So my parishioners, if you need to open your account, you know where to go. God bless you, Mrs. Elizabeth.”
“As first time home buyers, we were very nervous about the process. We weren't sure where to start, or if it was even possible.Enter Jay. Jay and his team made a nerve-wrecking process a very smooth and transparent experience. It was honestly painless, and so much less stressful working with Jay. He has excellent communication, and is very easy and pleasant to work with. I would recommend Jay to my friends and family, and look forward to continue working with him!”
“I have been doing business with Lending Club for several years. I find them to be fair and honest and great to do business with. If you need help, they are there for you during the loan and before you apply and! afterwards as well”
“Nice open, bright cafe to get coffee and breakfast or work. The line and service moved quickly. Coffee and food was good. Capital One staff shares info about their services. They are very friendly.”
“Frank Guardado and Troy are two exceptionally professional and helpful team members at this location. I am transferring my accounts from First Republic since they got bought out by Chase, and I am very happy with the level of service these folks provide. I am also happy to not support Chase which paid its CEO $70 million dollars when people were losing their homes during the Great Recession of 2007. Small banks for the win!”
“I would like to express my utmost appreciation and respect for Naila's cordial service. The other staff at this branch were also supremely friendly and dedicated. No exaggeration, it was the best service I have received from Citibank. Naila promptly helped me and resolved an issue that I was unable to even obtain a clue to solve after numerous attempts with Citibank's telephone customer service. If you have a problem, I would confidently recommend you to contact Naila and this branch.”
“I had the greatest experience with Patelco with the help of Ms.Jackie Jordan.I had become a member of Patelco services a few months ago and as my financial advisor Ms. Jordan assured me that Patelco would help me every step of the way. When my situation changed and I needed to buy a car online and being computer illiterate I went to her and she graciously spent over thirty minutes helping me purchase my dream car. She saw past my insecurities and talked me through it. She is a beacon of truth and help that we don't see everyday.I am grateful to of met her those four or five months ago and look forward to doing business with her and Patelco for years to come”
“Great experience with the teller line at this bank. Everyone is so friendly and efficient at what they do to help their customers. Great location by Bart and parking for customers during the day.”
“Every time I am having problems with my account I can always call this branch to help resolve them since Guam branches do not coincide with Chicago time. I believe I've called before and a lady named Barbara helped me and she was very kind friend and patient with me.I also called today and Clarice was a gem and helped me resolve all my issues.These women and their friendly demeanor and kindness remind me of why I miss a Guam so much because people from Guam are the best!Leilanie M.”
“Thank you for taking the time and making me feel like family. Eric explained to me step by step, all the benefits of opening my account with Redwood City Credit Union, I am pleased with the decision I made after a personal friend recommended this financial agency to me.I was assisted in my process by Luis Cocom, who took the time and care for me to understand the entire process, slowly so that there were no doubts. Currently Luis CoconHe is the one who helps me with my banking situations just by sending him an email or a call. Personalized attention, thank you very much for your contribution to society, making a difference in your professional treatment of clients. I would not hesitate to recommend them today and always.”
“I applied for a loan for a tesla. The portal maybe a bit low tech, but the assistant took me through the entire process and even completed the loan after hours so I could purchase my car during the weekend. Overall, I am happy with my interactions with techchu and their low interest rates”
“I had a most amazing experience yesterday setting up an account at this branch - an account that presented innumerable problems. But the Branch Manager, Bill Gardner, and the Branch Support Representative, Denise Prato, worked through it together and the unincorporated association I'm working on behalf of, now has an account. Very, very impressive. I can hardly thank them enough.”
“Great staff, wonderful rates, protection plus, they really look out for their customers interest & keep on top of all of the latest scams (A+) a long time customer for over 30 years.”

Even though, cashing a check is a fairly simple transaction, however, with all the safety precautions and protocols necessary to make it a successful transaction, it takes an experienced and professional bank employee to complete the tasks while being engaging and pleasant. Thank you.”

“Amazing bank, especially for small business! In the early years they gave my business a line of credit, when BofA wouldn't even consider it. They see me and my business as real people, have believed in us and have increased our credit line over the years, helping us grow. They truly are a community bank. If you want a bank that sees you as a person, knows your name and works with you individually, than Community Bank of the Bay is for you! I highly recommend them! PS. Now that my business had grown BofA has tried to get our business back, but because Community Bank was there for me when the business was small, and when times were tough I am sticking with them! They have earned and deserve my loyalty.”
“Thank you Beneficial! I had an issue with a stolen check, and the staff at the Oakland branch has gone above and beyond to help. Appreciate the incredible, personal customer service. And I appreciate their values.”
“Chase Bank Private Client V.P. Justin Sloan at 555 Mission Street in San Francisco should deserve some recognition by management for he seemed to be the very few employees that has revived my faith within the banking industry of late. He is always very helpful, professional and responsive to my concerns and needs throughout the years especially during the Covid Pandemic! Unlike some of his colleagues whom are great at providing lip services or even throw a monkey wrench at the works by telling other truly helpful good employees in the branch such as Fantasia Jackson that she cannot fax application to Headquarters for “self- directed brokerage accounts.” This happened two weeks ago even though I was instructed telephonically to do so by a supervisory employee with customer service earlier the same day when all else had failed, i.e. electronically/ via internet to open aforementioned account! With banking hours being cut back including services by most banks, it has been a refreshing experience to know that bankers such as Justin and Fantasia are still around to complete the important mission set forth by their charismatic CEO and Chairman Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan Chase & Co.In spite of the limited resources or encouragement Justin and Fantasia do their best to help out customers like myself that require a service dog to get around!Being the largest bank in this great nation, I believe it is important that Chase Bank management should reward good employees and weed out the bad ones for many large banks and corporations had failed of late because their leaders had failed to discern such differences in its rank and file!Finally, it is my fervent hope that Chase Bank would integrate the few decent employees from First Republic Bank into Chase Bank on a permanent basis for they are part of the JP Morgan Chase family now!”
“Outstanding service from Merry and her colleagues at this branch. We had an in-person appointment to open up a checking account for my daughter. Merry took time to explain the options and help my daughter make informed decisions. She also helped to educate my daughter on general financial management and how to build credit. Overall a great experience”

777 Tennent Ave, Pinole“I go out of my way just to come to the branch in Pinole,CA. When you call the number listed online you get to speak to someone instead of a machine which is unheard of. Only downside is no matter how much money you have in your account whether it is $3,000-$3,000,000, for the first year you can only use $3000 on your card of it per day. So a home remodel you will have to be a check if over 3k.”
“Great experience setting up a new account here with Royce. He guided us through the process thoroughly but efficiently and made us feel like valued clients throughout. Also had a great experience with the teller staff recently. Best B of A branch, by far!”
“Everyone I've dealt with has been very helpful & efficient. I come in on a regular basis & never had problems, even on busy days they do better than others I've been too. Keep it up”
“After reading reviews about this location and the one on Shattuck, I came here to open an account. Glad I did. Their employees are so helpful and nice!!! Particularly Amarita and Jessica. They walked me through the process of opening a business account. Amarita even researched something with me, which proved to be helpful because when I got home I wouldn’t have found the information on the website had I not seen it at her office.Chase is so much better than Bank of America. And apparently are the largest in America so we don’t have to worry about it going under like recent banks around here have.Super happy with my experience and glad I came here (which is further away) to open a new account.”
“Quality/Quantity - I was not going to write a Yelp on them, but this is my second visit in a month and both times have been a 5 star experience. Previous visits were negative (years ago).Our favorite branch is SF Geary with Katrina the branch manager. She is amazing; one of the two best employees of the company in my opinion!! Too bad that location is closing or has closed.Kieth was good, took care of all my needs in a very timely fashion.The security guard was even better; she greeted me in the parking lot, walked over to open the door for me, and went out of her way to say goodbye when I was leaving.Oh well, no coffee or fresh baked cookies today? Kieth said the cookies got burned...My previous recent visit was just as positive; sorry I did not get names.But the security guard, an older gentleman, also went out of his way to open the door for me. Atmosphere - Good size branch. Small size parking. But plenty of metered street parking.Service - See above, your team has improved so much at this location. I look forward to coming here more often.Price - N/A. Well, I might be coming back for some foreign exchange currencies for my next travels.Owner Suggestion - Congrats on your success since 1985 with 84 locations, S&P 500, and Russell 1000.2007 - Merrill Lynch acquired.2008 - Bank of America acquired.2010 - Private equity acquired.2010+ - More confusing acquisitions, above my pay grade to explain, please Google if interested.2023 - Chase/JP Morgan bought your assets and will be converting many of your locations.”
“I had a great experience getting my loan with Inova, but what made it difficult for me was not being able to set up my account for auto pay. I had contacted Robin who walked me through the whole process. I was very frustrated by the time I called and I appreciate Robin's professionalism and guidance in helping me.”
