I have repeatedly tried to call this branch and have NEVER reached a live person. You cannot leave a message and get transferred over to the banking customer service lines. Even the agent there could not reach the manager on my last attempt. He has a back office number which the branch is required to answer. He let it ring for 3 minutes and gave up. The B of A process for contacting a branch is broken but this issue at the Spanish River branch is reflective of a manager who does not care and has no radar for her customers' needs. My experience here is enough to motivate me to switch to a totally different bank after 20 years with B of A.

I don't usually write reviews but figured I would like to help those considering banking here.
To reiterate the previous reviews, this is by far the worst bank I have ever banked with. I should have known when I was trying to open an account there and had to wait an hour and a half; it just went down hill from there.
My recent visit, there were four women behind the counter, one at the window assisting the drive-thru, one at the desk assisting walk-in members, and two trying to figure out the vault system.
There was one car at the window, one person in front of me inside. The woman at the desk went to help the woman at the window (with the one car) and made the person in front of me wait while she did so. During this time, the other two women continued to interrupt those working to get help with the vault. (The women at the desk that made the man wait continued to get distracted because she was trying to be part of the women's conversation.) The women at the window put her fingers to her head as if it were a gun (like the "just shoot me" sign) to another one of the ladies. Then looked to see if we (still waiting for the woman at the desk to partake in her duties and actually stop eavesdropping and do her job.) I waited at least 15 minutes for a 1 min transaction. I will be closing my account there soon and going to another bank that has professional, knowledgeable, and active employees that are not more interested in talking to each other than providing the customer support members deserve.
When signing up with BOA, the gentleman stated this would be the best bank I will ever belong to, I believe he may need move to another bank/location if he is going to try to promise that.

HORRIBLE SERVICE. If you want your money fast then stay away from this place. A week ago I went to withdraw a check and a lady that looked like the middle east/ Pakistan/ India and accent from one of those places told me that my money wasn't available and to pass by the next day. I called the person that gave me my check right after and he told me the lady lied to me because the money was available. 5 minutes later I arrived at another Bank of America and they gave me my money. So I basically wasted my time going there. I provided my identification and still got rejected to get MY MONEY. So if you do go to this place stay away from the Indian/ Middle Eastern lady. Shes not hard to identify. Bank of America: just give your people their money when they need it...

I have been with the Bank of America for 40 years. I started a small business using a company name that i have registered in San Jose over 5 years ago. I work as a consultant in the City, did not have the time to open a business account with the Bank if America Branch at Hasianda Gardens on Meridian in San Jose.
I received two business checks that was deposited in the branch. Last week I brought another check, the teller would not deposit it because it was large. The branch manager came and was rude, abrasive and harsh. She will not even start a business account, not accepting an official San Jose County Tax document as a teperory prove of business legal ststus. I was not happy and told her that I will close all my and my wife's accounts. I said that i will take my business to another Bank. She replied go ahead pointing to a bank across the parking lot, she said that they will not open a business account fir you.
I understand that she could be following policy and banking procedures, but, that DOES not justify the rude behavior and not care about her customers. I reached the regional VP, he said that he expected Managers to provide solutions not hurdles! And that he will call her. I told him that I will be moving all my business to another bank and will not deal with that branch as long as that manager is there.
That other major bank within half an hour opened a business account, accepted the check and issues a debit card for me. I am now working towards going ahead and clossing all my accounts as soon as I take care with the automatic deposits and moving them to the other Bank.
Whats up with business theses days, a bank pays you to open an account and another Bank Manager kicks away 40 years customer.

The gentleman in the lobby was friendly, helpful, and funny. He made me fell welcome unlike other bankers I've met who made me feel like a number. The banker who opened my account Renay I believe was her name was very friendly and informative. Over all I'm very happy with my experience and new account.

Worst business practices ever!
Overall Rating
Other Services
by Bankofthieves, Dec. 17, 2014
This review is not about my branch at BofA...it is about business practices with BofA. My son deposited a check for me into the ATM at the branch I have my account. The check was in excess of $6200. I made a mistake and did not notice the Insurance draft had both my name and my son's name on it. I am the policy holder...still not sure why his name was on the check. The deposit was made on December 12th. On December 15th I got on line to see if the hold had been lifted on the check and funds were available. The money is gone. I look through transactions and see BofA has removed the deposit from my account. I got on chat with them and was treated as if I was too dumb to find the deposit to view the check. There was no image of the check at all. Worse service on chat ever! I spent almost an hour talking to two different people that are trained only to repeat the same scripted answers over and over and over. They told me would receive notice in the mail explaining the correction and that my check would follow that in the mail...in 7-10 business days. WHAT???? I won't HAVE the check back in 7-10 business days (bad enough), but it will be MAILED to me in 7-10. The check can't be retrieved, there is "nothing they can do". I called customer un-service this morning. Spoke to a really nice gal...she unfortunately gave me the BofA "perfect script for all customers". I apologized that I was about to shoot the messenger and asked to speak with a manager. Manager came on the phone and gave me the identical BofA speak. There is nothing they can do. REALLY? I wasn't given a courtesy call when they took the funds out of my account...a $6200 check? REALLY??? apparently they don't "do" that for their customers. We aren't talking about a $10 check here...we are talking about a $6200 check! Now...I get a "courtesy call" each and every time I make a debit purchase on line to a company that BofA does not recognize...for as low as $100. They've even locked down my account for my "safety" for the same reason...but its okay for BofA to take $6200 OUT of my account with NO courtesy call what-so-ever. You have GOT to be kidding me!!!!! Couldn't overnight the check to my branch so I could get it appropriately taken care of? I just want to swear so badly right now! The manager tells me it can take up to three weeks for me to receive the check. Am I an idiot here, or am I the only one thinking about the fact that they are putting an endorsed check for $6200 in the mail. How irresponsible is that? I realize the check requires on more endorsement...but really? There are no criminals that haven't figured out how to get around that? Oh my gosh, I'm dumbfounded over this. So to make my little story even further entertaining...if my account overdraws...I WILL RECEIVE OVERDRAFT FEES!!!!! In three weeks time literally anything that bounces will run a second time and bounce a second time...at $35 each time? Who is the criminal here? I probably have less to worry about with a signed/endorsed check with my account number on it floating around out in the mail at Christmas time. This business practice has GOT to be illegal. Absolute robbery of customer money!

Probably the worse bank branch in the city. They have a very uncaring manager, she stands there to say "welcome" but beyond that does not have a care in the world. This bank is what gives BOA such a bad - bad name, I would avoid at all cost!
New Manager who cares for customers please!

David Olinda is never there to manage issues and the one time I was able to have an issue resolved for a unauthorized charge, I was basically told that my account wasn't large enough to get an approval. This is a shame since the location for this branch is low/mid income. I have been a faithful customer for over 10 years and RARELY complain about an issue in a branch. His district manager was a woman named Marisol Vasquez last I heard. If you have issues with this branch, contact her. Why does he even work for a bank and why do they allow him to stay???? BOA needs to do better.

When my mother passed away the bank closed her checking account and I transfered the balance into a tax account (EIN). Then I discovered they allowed a direct deposit into the closed account which they so far have not put into the EIN account but will not release the money to me. I have spent over three hours with one of the drones that shuffles papers there, while they get on the phone with the "Lawyers" (three times), and everytime they assure me the monies will be transfered. This all began in June and every month I get a statement from the bank with a $12 fee for a closed account… basically theives in polyester. Now I just got a notice from them that I had passed away and would need to bring in a death certificate. There's an old saying, "Give a room full of monkeys all typewriters, they may actually write something." That's an insult to our primate relatives, "I say make them Bank of America drones and maybe they'll get something right… after they take your money." I think one star is not appropiate… should be a minus star.

This all began in June and every month I get a statement from the bank with a $12 fee for a closed account… basically theives in polyester. Now I just got a notice from them that I had passed away and would need to bring in a death certificate. There's an old saying, "Give a room full of monkeys all typewriters, they may actually write something." That's an insult to our primate relatives, "I say make them Bank of America drones and maybe they'll get something right… after they take your money." I think one star is not appropiate… should be a minus star.

The lines for deposits are long, suggestion open more teller windows.
Never can get anyone to answer the phone. They let it ring to go to customer service center and that is useless unless your calling about an ATM card.
There is no night deposit access without a key or a ATM card. Get with it people.

These people only care about numbers and see you as such...was told that I didn't matter unless if I had a current balance/investment of over $200,000...the staff has told me misinformation multiple times and manipulated bofa members into registering for programs that are not fdic insured or have a fine line advantage toward the bank. I would much rather bank with chace or citi bank which offer better interest rates and have just as many atms!

I have been dealing with BOA for many years and I have never been to a worse branch. There are no management people there and the remaining staff have an "I don't care" attitude. I took off of work to do personal banking and go to my safe deposit box and it should be illegal for me not to have access to my assets. THIS IS THE WORST BANK I HAVE EVER USED!!!!

We have had the worst experience with this branch. Not only are the tellers incompetent, but their bank manger Veronica is worse off, she LAZY and unable to do her job! Went into the branch to pay our mortgage payment, with the slip!!! The young man handed back the envelope, thinking he placed the receipt back into the envelope, I filled it away. Got a note in the mail from the new mortage company, stating we had not made Aug payment. Called BOA they also, had not received our payment. Went into the branch spoke to Veronica told her the story. She was skeptical of me! I asked to her to check the closed credit card account. Which she didn't want to do, so after screaming, crying, and cussing she finally checked well.... Sure enough the teller applied it to a credit card that had been closed since 2008, this isn't the first time they had done this to us. To make matters worse, this was the last payment we would be making to BOA, since they had sold the mortage to another company, so the mortage account was closed as of Aug 15. Veronica got the money tracked down, and had BOA credit card dep. apply it back to the mortage account. They were unable to do so, due to it being closed. No one notified us of this!! I called Veronica back the following week, asked the status of the mortage account, well the money got denied due to the account being closed, sooooo the BOA credit card company applied it to another closed credit card, that had been closed since 2011. Veronica " bank manger" let me know there was nothing else she could do. She gave me a number, to call and told me I had to deal with it. Finally got the the money back, it took well over 2 months to do so. BOA is far by one of the worse banking centers, and customer service I have ever had to deal with in my life. I called Veronica, and let her know all of the chaos I went threw. I advised her, if she would of done her job in the first place, and took care of it we would of gotten this handle awhile ago. She of course did not take the blame, she passed it on to the teller. She let me know he was let go. Which I think was extremely unprofessional of her, as it was none of my business!! Veronica should not be a manger at BOA, with her qualifications she should be picking up garbage on the side of the road.

After making an appointment for a specific day and time, with a specific person (female VP) I arrived at the bank and began to wait. Ten minutes after our set meeting the VP came out of a room and said she would be with me shortly, Now waiting 20 minutes after the set appt the VP comes out of a room eating food and passed me off to another person. Things have gone hill or consistent from there. I have had appts with this VP and she talks to much about herself and makes promises that are not true (to myself and another friend) to get you to make deposits in their bank. Even the President consistently makes analogies about how she works her accounts with her son. I do not care! I don't have kids and I do not have to worry about someone I can not trust completely. I only bank here because there are branches in many other places I frequent. Very unprofessional staff in their VP and not so much professional otherwise either. Anita consistently acts like this is a play room and she just wants to visit, eat and play. It's a small town but this really exemplifies fun and games and not professional environment!

I have been really happy with mr. Dan mendendez. He really goes out of the way to help . Eric is great too. The only person I hate dealing with at this location is mr. Tej. Mr. Tej needs some lessons on customer service. If you really take the suggestions seriously I will be happy to discuss my encounter with mr. Tej.
I would still keep taking service from this location but would only see mr. Dan.

I've been to this bank several years ago and the bank was great and had good customer service. Today, I happened to be around the area and needed to deposit a check. I also realized that I needed to order some blank checks since I was running out. When I was there to deposit a check, I wanted to order more blank checks as well and was wondering how I would be able to do that. The bank teller directed me to wait on a seat for someone to help me with that and said it would only take a few minutes.
In reality, It took over 30 minutes of waiting and the representative that was helping another customer and she just pointed to me and said, "You know you can do that online." This was new to me and I didn't know how so I was there left on the chair waiting again. That representative obviously took her sweet time and acted like she didn't even care about her customers. There was another person with me waiting on the seat and we were busy talking about how incredibly slow and frustrating the service is here. She was late for work due to waiting so long and I ended up being late for a meeting as well.
After 38 minutes of waiting, a representative finally came out from the front and asked what we were waiting for. I told her about my situation and she kindly told me what I needed to do in order to order checks for online banking in less than 1 minute (Also, that I could save $3 from going online to order instead of waiting for someone). It was all I needed to know and without the female representative dressed in black coming out from the front counter explaining this to me, I probably would've been waiting for another hour just for them to tell me something that lasts less than one minute. I didn't get her name, but she was straight to the point, told me exactly what I needed to do, how long the checks will take to get to my address, and even told me on how I can save some money.
I don't know how the customer service there went downhill, but I'm glad that I don't visit that branch at Hamden as often anymore. Hamden needs more representatives like the female representative that I spoke to after waiting for so long. If you want to have the kindest, most helpful, courteous, yet efficient customer service in the area, I recommend to goto the North Haven branch instead. They have the top of the line customer service in the area there and are more than willing to help out their customers with a smile. I always enjoy going there. Hopefuly the Hamden branch will be able to shape up and change their ways, but until then, I'll stick with what is best, which is the North Haven BoA.
