Chase Bank

God forbid you arrive at 1:30 after they close on a Saturday. They won’t answer your simple yes or no question through the door, let you walk back to your car before they open the door, making you feel like the heinous criminal you are.

I started banking at this location when I moved to Mid City as this is the closest Chase to my house; then the one on Broad (which I forget about all the time).
To me, a bank is a bank, right? Well I guess as you get older and have more responsibilities and more money to deal with, you realize certain things that didn’t seem to matter much before. The service here has always been friendly, no problems with staff at all.
I rarely deal with checks or loans so I hardly ever need to step foot in a branch. There are a couple things that gripe me about Chase tho. I suppose this speaks less to this particular branch; more so Chase as a whole. Like, you now have to show i.d. to deposit cash into your account. Now I get it because when I asked as to why they started doing that, I was told it was to combat against money laundering and fraud or something. Makes sense, I guess.
Like I said before, i hardly ever step foot in a branch thanks to the Chase app for the rare occasion I recieve a check, i can just take a picture of it and deposit it from my phone. I mostly use the ATM if I need to withdraw or deposit cash, but a lot of times, the ATM is ‘currently unable to accept cash deposits’, which grinds my gears (first-​world problem, I know).
My transactions don’t require a lot of time or any manpower so I like to get in and outta the bank quickly. Fill out a deposit slip?! Yeah, if I’m doing something major but majority of the time, i can handle it myself.
The biggest gripe I have with Chase is the fact they do not have a coin counter in any of their branches. I discovered this as I was trying to cash in some last-​minute change for a trip I would be taking, only to be told they have to send the coins off to the fed, and it would take about two weeks for me to get my money.
Two weeks?!
I don’t trust anyone with my money in ‘limbo’ for that amount of time. Crazy that J.P. Morgan is one of the oldest financial institutions in the world, but yet Whitney Bank has coin counters, and Whitney blows.
I understand why the old folk stashed money in the walls and didn’t put all their eggs in one basket.

This bank has only one drive through ATM, so if you want to use an ATM without driving through you need to share with the 1 only drive through ATM, also note that if you’re using the ATM after 4pm most likely there will be no receipt print out for you. overall it’s a cheap Chase Bank, needs improvements. Wells Fargo never disappointed me…
