The First Trust & Savings Bank - Watseka, Illinois

Had an account here since I was sixteen (almost ten years ago), and never experienced any true problems banking here. These past 2 years one of their members, Paige, has been extremely quick, and courteous to solving the issues I've had. As for as everyone else, the vast majority have been polite and I can't say I've ever had a negative moment inside the building either.

Their automatic phone number to activate cards does not work. Tried 8 times but just kept asking me to put in my info over and over before telling me my request can't be processed. I am busy all the time and whenever I'm free enough to actually sort this out, FTS is closed. Not to mention that their website is horribly designed and extremely counter intuitive. How hard is it to put a "sign in" button in the top right corner? Every other website has one. And not to mention their ridiculous overdraft fees. I was 16¢ short on a monthly subscription so the bank charged me $30. Luckily I have people to help me financially because greedy practices like that are the reason people become homeless. I wish I could give them 0 stars.

Edit: I just found out they let a charge go through for a subscription I cancelled even though I can't even use my card buy food.

This bank is NOT a personable bank! It ONLY cares about it's customers. I went to get a roll of quarters and was asked if I was a customer. I said no. They refused to give me quarters. Then they said they would have to charge me an extra 10 dollars in order to get a roll. I came back to talk to a manager and was not referred to one. This time quarters were refused to me alltogether without a convenience fee. I was going to start an account there for a family member BUT NOT NOW!!! What is this world coming to! You can't exchange currency for coins?! I am going to tell everyone in town not to bank there. Absolutely unbelievable!
