Your ATM's hardly works every week there's something. Out of money especially on holiday weekends. Or it's just broken .

No reason to take ten minutes to deposit a check. Plus waited ten just to get a teller . The bank was empty.

I was just doing an ordinary online review of all my bank accounts at several banks. At Bank Five, I was questioned like a criminal, and even AFTER I had given ALL my personal info, they demanded to know the last amount I had withdrawn. I am 84. I use several accounts. I do not remember the last amount, and after giving ALL my info, I was still not let in. Bank Five is last on MY list!

Got a letter in the mail about account…

Got a letter in the mail about account inactivity, so I called to find out what this was about. Since I don’t remember my last deposit from three years ago, the call got nowhere. I provided all my information and Social Security number but now I have to visit the bank most likely because there’s a few cents left in one of my accounts.

Update- 9-2-2026
They reached out after this review and solved my issue over phone. Updated my rating.
