M & T Bank

Stay away from here! M&T has tons of ridiculous surprise fees. I bank here but will soon be switching to NFCU.
Once, my paypal account was hacked, which was linked to my M&T checking account, and money was stolen. While I was trying to work things out with paypal, I came to the bank manager here to let her know what happened and to see if she would forgive overdrawal fees. She was extremely rude, dismissive, and unwilling to help at all. I understand that maybe there really was nothing she could do, but her attitude was so horrible. She did not smile once and barely made eye contact.
Needless to say, you’re better off taking your money elsewhere.

This is the WORST. Bank I’ve ever banked with. They have the worst customer service inside the branch and over the phone at there call center. They try to find any way humanly possible to penalize you and hit you with fees. Save yourself the headache stay FAR AWAY from this bank!

I received a check from someone who has an account here. I go to cash it ($ 300) and I was told that I would be charged $ 10 because I was not an account holder. Pretty interesting I’m thinking. The teller tells me the good news, if I open up an account today I will not have to pay the $ 10 fee.
Not that I’m considering this at all but just to verbally prove a point I ask. «So if I open up an account, write someone a check, and they come here to cash it, they will be charged $ 10 unless they have an account?» the teller uncomfortably said that is correct sir. I then proceeded to ask her «Does that sound like a bank you would want to join?»
I requested my check back & deposited across the street at my bank (Capitol One)
$ 10 to cash a check drawn on that bank LOL– yea right
