Banks in Port Orchard, WA

“This fairly new location is nice and has short wait times. I wish Navy Federal had better rates.For credit Union of their size I’d like a better return . The staff here was knowledgeable and professional.”

“Nothing but great experiences with this branch the employees here are very kind and work fast. They go above and beyond make me feel like my needs matter. They are genuine and honest. All of them deserve a raise!”

“Every visit l'm met with a friendly greeting! All Associates have been very nice and helpful. I'm really surprised their rating is only 3.8! I give them 5⭐s!”

“Andres at the Port Orchard branch goes above and beyond for his customers. I witnessed him deal with a difficult situation with ease and amazing customer service. Thank you!”

“We've had overall very good experience with this branch. We've been approved for several types of loans and credit accounts with excellent terms, far better than the large commercial banks. As my wife says, "They were always there for us when we needed them." Overall, the tellers are friendly and management responsive to our concerns.But its status as a training branch has led to ongoing problems with our account deposits that are worsening due to changes in corporate policy. The most dangerous and ludicrous is its decision to eliminate deposit slips. All transactions are verbal since, the corporate philosophy states, it's the customer who makes the most errors on those slips. So, a teller is supposed to engage you in conversation and ask in which account you'd like your money deposited. This may work for teller window transactions.The last drive-up teller who handled my deposits failed to ask where the deposit monies were supposed to go and ignored the deposit slips and the instructions which have been permanently saved to our accounts. They deposited all of the money into our personal account. That meant that any checks or payments for expenses or taxes drawn from the business account would've bounced. Imagine all the time and effort that would have to be put in clearing up that mess.Some mistakes made by new tellers cause an account to be overdrawn, causing fees to be levied. To get this all reversed requires time and effort wasted that could've been avoided if the errors were caught before the transaction was completed. That used to be how it was done at this branch. No longer.Deposit slips provide a record of our intent for OUR money, how and where we want it deposited. In our case, there are written instructions for how to process our deposits that every teller is supposed to view in our account before starting the transactions. Despite this, new tellers ignore the written instructions and just complete the transactions by rote from their general training. This is how our deposits get mishandled on a recurring basis by new tellers in training.But there are other pitfalls to no-deposit-slip transactions. Think that drive-up teller lines were backed up before? That situation could only have been worsened now by customers having to repeat verbal instructions to tellers with the tellers having to verbally confirm them with the customers. If there's an error, it can descend into something like Monty Python's "Argument Clinic" sketch: "I told you what I wanted." "No you didn't." "Yes I did." "No you didn't." "Yes I did"...And all the drivers in the other lanes can hear it all.What I didn’t originally mention is that both my wife and I talked with the branch manager before I posted this review. My wife and I still disagree with KCU on a couple of industry practices but we are welcome to continue using deposit slips for our transactions. That same manager has affirmed that she's available to meet with us any time we feel the need to talk to her about our accounts. The credit union remains more responsive to our concerns than other institutions we've banked with and we do have an overall long and great working relationship with this branch. We'll continue to keep our primary personal and business accounts here.”

“I love this bank! My wife and I have been a customer for 3 years or a little over. And we've always gotten respected no matter any problem that may accur. Thank you, Peninsula Credit Union! ? ?.”

“Every experience has been a genuine pleasure. Both tellers and managers have been both friendly and professional besides meeting my banking needs. I'm not wealthy but have had diverse needs that were always met in a timely and efficient way. I would definitely recommend Kitsap Bank for anyone in the area.”

“Im glad to hear that Global is merging with AlaskaUSA so we will finally have Saturday banking. Now if we could get the hours changed to open at 9am instead of 10. Realistic! Overall they are a good credit union to do business with.”

“I had an issue that ended up being an almost a weeks long process (not due to any fault of the bank). Judy and Terrance helped me out & they were incredible! They made the very inconvenient situation a lot easier for me & worked with me for DAYS. If you're stuck with an issue & need extra assistance, ask for them! Great experience!”

“Great convenient and fast service! being located in the albertsons help cut down on stops when driving also. they are also open seven days a week which is a huge plus.”

“I'm surprised by the negative reviews. I've trade at this branch over 30 years.I've always been treated well by everyone I've met in the bank. Regarding wait times, perhaps my age gives me an advantage. At my age, my patience is about all that works anymore. In any case, I can only say I've had positive experiences with this bank.”
