Wanted to transfer my 401K ($175,000) into a CD IRA they had advertised in the bank. I was told I had to talk to their financial advisor. I told him what I wanted and he said the had annuities. I told him I didn't want an annuity. About 10 minutes into his sales pitch I realized he couldn't sell me the CD. This sure seems like bait and switch which is illegal. Told me nobody has ever lost money, guaranteed by the state and showed how much I could have. I knew he was lying. I asked him if I could just have my money transferred there and then decide. He told me no. I hate this bank and am planning to close my account. There is one bank you can go to and you don't hear. Would you like to talk to our financial advisor? NO !! It only takes a minute. NO !! It's free. NO !! Every bank has the same line. I miss the days when the commercial bank and investment bank were required to be in separate buildings.

Rip off bank stay away fees galore fees on top of monthly fees ! You opt out on debit card they jam it thru to get more fees ! No help they will close your account after 10 years because they do not like your attitude. In the way they steal from you and not let you no was a great bank when it was just Harris bank . A joke with fees monthly fees now $15 daily fee on top of the fee over 2 cents is $38 . Your feed on top of uncollected funds . A item ck you don’t write fees are $48 . Customer service horrible they lie cheat steal . Promise you a refund then don’t do it . Not very bright people at the bank no help I strongly advise to not bank with any bmo . You will be sorry they only want the rich people. And they get mad when you complain if they rip you off if they don’t like your attitude what a joke if you stole from them you be in jail . But it’s ok for them to steal from you a license to steal . The feds must look into their fees and they do not follow the law if you opt out of a debit purchase to be declined instead they will jam thru a small purchase to make more fees . And hold your funds longer to make more fees . Use to be a great bank on the 90s when it was Harris bank . Another to big to fail . But fee crazy serious if you want to be ripped off stay with them you will be fees to death . Not a good bank stay with. A credit union. Bank more caring look for better options . You will be sad when they fee you to death . And do not follow federal banking laws . Not lieing do not want see others ripped off . Or fees to death and get your account closed without them telling you . Find a better bank their their bmo in my opinion is a horrible horrible ruthless bank fee happy . Thanks only the truth

I have only been a customer of this bank for a year and as such have very little use for the facility itself. I do 90% of my banking online. However, recently I had to go in to get a large amount of cash and the teller whom I dealt with at was Connie Todd. She was the most unpleasant and arrogant person I have ever experienced in any bank in my 50 years of banking. Snooty, unfriendly, officious and absolutely quietly RUDE. She needs to be given either a bottle of Happy Pills or the Boot - one or the other. She should take a long look at herself in a mirror someday!!

Our local BMO Bank in Evansville, Wisconsin made it a point to get a Keurig Coffee maker for customers, so a customer doing a transaction could get a free cup of coffee. Well management decided that the BMO Bank would be losing money by giving free coffee to the average member so they hid the coffee maker in the back room and ONLY give coffee to suckers getting a Loan and only if that person Asks for a coffee. They make millions of dollars a day and cant afford a 10 Cent cup of coffee. The Canadian Bank of Montreal says, "We focus on building relationships with a vision to be the bank that defines great customer experience." YEA!!! And a cup of coffee apparently is beyond that limit. You don't even get a free pen.

I don't know that not getting a free cup of coffee constitutes a review. It is coffee. Nothing to get upset over and lower a rating over.

(10) TEN CENTS A CUP..???!!!!Maybe back in 1966  My BMO has coffee in several of the  branches I use, always excellent service. Several mortgages and commercial banking along with my personal banking they never fail to impress me.

Today I entered this location to cash my payroll check. The bald guy behind the counter refused to cash my check. Even went as far as sending me to the E Washington St location. They were very pleasant to work with and had no issue. The man behind the counter at the 1401 N Shadeland kept telling me my check would not be cashed, and didn't even care about the huge amount of money in his bank from my employer. If you want good customer service, stay away from this branch....
