I've worked with a lot of banks in my 62 years of banking.   While First Horizon was good at the onslaught, they became distant. TheFirst has been stellar for the duration of the 4 years I've used them.  I have a personal account, a business account, and also a HELOC loan with TheFirst.. all have been serviced well. Special heads-up to Mike Norman, one of their VPs.  Great guy, amicable, and a problem solver.  I'd recommend this bank to any of my friends on the North Shore.

I put in for an equity loan on my house. She said she would have an answer in a couple of days. It’s been over a month and no one ever returns the phone call. I stopped in there and was told she left for lunch. Went back a few hours later coach he went on vacation week after week there’s a different excuse why I haven’t heard from her she has not returned one simple phone call in over a month I don’t understand why they took the loan application if they’re not interested in giving loans and just keep ghosting me

Frustrated and No Answer for Anything.....

I despise that Heritage was bought out by this bank....they are horrendous. I can't win for anything! If I try to call I am on hold for at least 20-30 minutes at any given time, the website is a nightmare and I am forever having to call to understand the login process. When I do go to the bank in person, I feel as if I am a burden and they can't wait for me to deposit or withdraw my money and just go away....It is beyond frustrating and in this day and age, when we have a slew of banks to choose from, I cannot wait to move my funds to a company that appreciates and values my business!!
