Spencer Savings Bank, SLA with 3.25% APY and $10,000 minimum deposit

Spencer Bank is by far, the ABSOLUTE WORST Banking institution there is. The Bank - and the Headquarters - display a host of shortcomings and clearly are the most substandard bank - dealing with numerous staff members in the Corporate Office and bank location, I can easily say that across the board, each person failed miserably in their competencies...there was incompetence, unprofessionalism, a lack of knowledge, and complete disregard displayed - a Bank Manager who left an urgent situation hanging and unresolved - never to have the decency to properly handle customer's needs.....and members in the Corporate Office following the same pattern - with absolutely no accountability, conscience or morals. The Bank Manager comes from a place of NO...as do the other staff members...they go through the motion to do nothing ...and handling any question or request for them is utterly challenging and mishandled - they are literally clueless and inept.

The bank couldn't have failed worse in their non-actions in supporting their clients - they have antiquated ways of handling situations and horrendous follow-through in meeting customer needs - it's non-existent and actually creates stress and aggravation to a situation. Who would need that? It's no wonder Spencer Bank exists in a bubble in New Jersey and fails to be a national bank - they're ill equipped on every staff level. It's a small, isolated banking institution ...and instead of at least offering more personalized service, as a result, they actually fall short in that too....but rather, they're impersonal, backwards, unresponsive and irresponsible in performing tasks that other banks can do with ease.

I decided to google - "what skills are crucial for bank professionals" ...and the following was listed - Patience...Attentiveness...Emotional Intelligence...Ability to Communicate Clearly...Problem Solving Skills...A Methodical Approach...Creativity and Resourcefulness...and Ability to Use Positive Language." So, what I find remarkable is - There Is Not One Skill Listed That Would Encompass Spencer Savings Bank - They Literally FAILED On All Counts.

In assessing my experience with their employees and the abilities of Spencer Savings, it is so deplorable that the traits, listed above, are the complete opposite skills to what was offered at Spencer Bank - they come from a place of NO...they lack resourcefulness, they lack accountability and they cannot be depended on...the Bank Manager was so ineffective and seemed completely disinterested in her job...after dealing with other Company members, I realized that this seems to be the trend there - sadly, it starts from the Top Down. Low Expectations seem to be their motto - and their goal....it's too bad that clients suffer, as a result. I only recommend using Spencer Savings if you are comfortable with failure and incompetence.

Life lesson: If you go to a "Rinky-Dink" Bank, then expect "Rinky-Dink" service!
