July 2016 by Ted Pryvet
My wife worked for a local bank back in Indiana. It was a good people bank, and they took no part in the bailout or bad loans. They were an excellent bank. And I've have NUMEROUS banks, I left them, not kicked out. When a bank was wonky or the people had attitudinal problems, or the big issue was with bogus overdraft fees (TCF Bank... I'm looking at you!) it was time to go. Well since we've moved to Florida, there are over 480 listed banks. I am not about the big ones, Chase, Wells, etc... been there, they suck! They do! They suck the money out of your account if you are with a positive account. If you have less than 10K then you are nothing to them! So forget them. Anyhow after diligent searching and literal legwork visiting banks and speaking to their clerks, we chose this bank and this branch. The ladies here are amazing! I am still learning about their deeper policies, but so far they haven't done any crooked stuff, the people there aren't beleaguered which would be a sign that the upper management sucks and they are insisting that the bankers act like used car sales people and push a whole lot of expensive products you don't want or need just to make a buck. My wife is actually going through that at a bank she works at right now, she hasn't left them yet.... YET. But as for this bank, they are alright. So as of this date July of 2016 I give them 5 stars, simply because after all my experience of dealing with banks, big, medium, and small, I do not find this place as offensive. If they do change their attitudes, so will I... Because seriously! It is literally YOUR MONEY that they are holding and using to make more money for themselves. But to say, 'hey I'm going to have to charge you more money, because you don't have enough for me to watch'... that's absurd. Those big banks that steal from the poor... for shame. Hell they even take from the medium wealth, basically from anyone who can't sue them. So this Cadence Bank isn't guilty of anything that I know of, and their service people are very helpful.
