Recommended this bank for 5.25 APR 6 month CD. Walked in with $xxk… agent at desk counted in front of me and wrote me a deposit slip for same amount.. she then took $$$ behind counter for 15 min only to return and tell me I was $1k short. I remarked that you counted it in front of me and she said “sorry I must’ve missed counted.” I did my own auditing at home, trusting that she was correct, but wasn’t the case. I talked to others in authority (police and lawyer) who said I should’ve never left the bank without my money but instead, I went back to take it out, and they said I had a pre-withdrawal penalty!!!!!! The manager, waved the amount and gave me my money back after two more trips to the bank. That is pretty unprofessional that a banker miscounts your $$$$. I stressed over this and lost a week of sleep… I can’t speak for others but I am widowed and retired and I can’t afford to lose any funds needed to survive. I would have only made $325+ dollars on the CD and LOST $1,000!!

Thank you OceanFirst Bank. We recently experienced a malware attack on our computer system. We faced a lot of changes to our banking and business routine because of that attack. The OceanFirst staff showed more knowledge, caring and concern than any other business we had to deal with during this frightening experience. We could alway turn to you guys when other tech businesses just didn't give a damn. We survived because of people like Jayne and Silvana, at the Little Egg Harbor Branch, who remained patient no matter how much time it took. Also a big thank you to Danielle for the impromptu seminar on hacking techniques. You folks are the best!

I was there today and and doing some routine banking. I have three other accounts including Wells Fargo and Manasquan. This was the easiest and fastest. Joanne who was very polite and helped me through the whole process and will soon be back to open a savings account through her quality of salesmanship and hope to keep this bank for quite a while.

While waiting to talk to a banker I treated so rude. I'm an African American. The term those people and jiga boo were used. The sad part the lady that said this I believe was a minority herself. I made the point to get her name. Ceyda you are rude and karma is real. The rest of the staff I have no complaints about. In 2019 I thought we moved past racial hate and discrimination. I guess not!
