Staff always say thank you for banking at Bank of Hawaii except Sylvia she must be tired today so shejut did not say anything to me after the transaction is completed. I was wondering saying thank you is BoH'policy or just a personal choice.

We are from the main land and opened our account with the Bank of Hawaii years ago. Robert Ragasa at the Kamuela Branch back in Nov 2016 was and helpful and professional. We stopped in the Branch with no appointment vs the Kona Branch to find him very responsive to our needs. Extremely knowledgeable about the banks services and helped us correct our account to reduce some fees and better improve our experience of services from the Bank of Hawaii. Robert is the perfect example of customer service. Thanks Robert!

I've been with bank of Hawaii for almost 4 years now and i haven't experienced any problems before. The service was great except waiting in line for to long. When I'm in a hurry I just ask the tellers if they can fill out my paper for withdrawal or deposit and they always do it. They're really nice. U dont remember my account so they always tell me no problem I will look it up for you . But last week I experience a really service at the bank of Hawaii at kamehameha shopping center. I notice they have new workers. U waited in line and when it was my turn I ask the if she can deposit my money into my two accounts . She gave me this dirty look telling "do me a favor and write it out yourself" yes that's what she said . And then I ask her if she can deposit my mom check. U didn't remember her account but I have the card that she wanted me to deposit it into. So the teller, her name is Chantel aks me what's my moms account with her dirty look again. I told her I don't know that's why I give you her card so you can look it. I told her that because everytime I go to the bank they always do it for me . And I ask for change she just ignored me , didn't even bother looking me in the eye or smile . She look like she was frustrated by me ! I don't even know why would you hire someone with no great personality. Remember you get paid by your customers. If everyone just decided not to go there you would loose money . Please fix this problem! I dont want to face it again !

Worst bank to go to. Long wait time. They take forever to do everything. A really bad example for Bank of Hawaii. Efficiency! That's all I ask! This is the worst bank on the island!

The Absolute Worst
 1star Overall Rating
by paddlepete, Jul. 15, 2014

They charge fees for EVERYTHING!  .50 per check to use the mobile deposit app.  They tell you funds will be available "after 4 days" and crush you for overdraft fees in the meantime while your money is just sitting there waiting for them to decide it's available.  Not helpful customer service.  Only concerned with getting you to sign up for more credit cards.  Greedy, lazy people who get away with it because mainland banks aren't allowed.

This location(Moloka'i) is all about the employees. Starting with the manager you could not ask for better service. The attitude and friendliness is everywhere. Remember, this is a Bank and the Bank is not your friend. However, the people in this office do a great job of helping you.

Figured I'd save time getting a notary as a bank ohana member.
They have a bankohana line but notary is a cattle car line with only 2 names on the list 30 minutes later I'm still waiting.
Manager smirked and said " Saturdays are
Busy" and walked away. Will not be coming back to Bank of Hawaii Pearlridge anytime soon or ever.

Upset BOH customer and former employee,
Mike

We recently suffered a loss of a family member. Joyce at BOH Hilo said the next trustee needed to appear in person and she proceeded to freeze the trust. (He lives on the East Coast!!) and when he came out and we went to BOH, we found out we needed 1 piece of paper signed and notarized. Does BOH think there are no notaries on the East Coast???? We had to stop many autopays etc while the account was frozen for 16 days. They are thoughtless and old fashioned. We will never bank there again. And this is not the 1st time BOH has been stupid. Just for me, it will be the last time.

Worst service this morning at the mo'ili'ili branch. I was racially profiled and treated as if I were a potential thief. I had actually come in this morning to open a business account but I will take my business elsewhere.

BOH needs a complete overhaul. My husband and I waited for more than 2 months for our credit cards because they made so many mistakes like sending the cards to a branch they closed 3 years ago, wrote the wrong address, and didn't apply the correct postage. Almost everything takes them so long to do and when we complain or ask them to correct their mistake, we are treated even worse. We will probably change banks within the next few months because we are so tired of their complete lack of professionalism.

This bank of Hawaii branch is the worst bank I have ever dealt with! I went to the ATM to withdraw $120 out of my account.... The transaction worked as usual except for my cash didn't come out! It gave me my balance and that $12O was deducted from my account! Yet I didn't get the cash! I go inside the bank and explain my issue to a teller.... She informs that the ATM is out of money and to call customer service because there is nothing she can do to help me! WTF!?!? I then speak to the manager who is also rude and unhelpful and tell her that their should be a sign on the ATM if it's outta cash! She replies with "we don't put signs up on our ATMs". This place is the WORST service I have ever received in my life!
