“I would love to give them 5 stars but I won't because I specifically told the bankers to use my private mailbox address and not my personal address. Twice they sent to my personal address which they kept saying that my private mailbox address is on file. Even if it's on file, you don't send to my personal address at all! Now my app locked me out!”

“My husband and I were in Santa Monica and we wanted to work out of a cafe. With a quick yelp search, we found a capital one cafe nearby ! The ambiance was very welcoming and we were able to get a private nook and were able to get some work done. Luckily my husband had a capital one venture X card so we decided to utilize the benefits and got our beverages for 50% off. I got their lavender honey latte and my husband got the mocha. We also got a chocolate croissant. I was super excited about the lavender latte, given it is my favorite flavor. My husband really liked his coffee. Mine was nice too but it was not as hot as I would have liked it to be unfortunately. The croissant was very average and we ended up discarding it because it was cold and eggy. However, given how nice this place is for the ambiance and the coffee, I think I would still recommend checking it out, especially if you are looking to work out of a cafe and need some privacy!”

“I recently went to the Wells Fargo on Broadway in Santa Monica. A homeless man was questioning a teller. The teller was so respectful and compassionate as he listened and responded to the gentleman. When the man left Wells Fargo, the guard walked him to the door, opened it for him, and thanked him for his business at Wells Fargo. I was so impressed with the compassion and empathy that the staff of Wells Fargo extended. We need more kindness like this in our world.”

“I'm seeing all these negative reviews for this branch location, which does NOT match my experience! I often go to this branch even though it is further from my home, simply because the people here are so nice to me! I've always felt welcome and appreciated by everyone I have interacted with at the 14th/Wilshire branch. They also seem to be friendly towards each other, which I feel contributes positively to the overall service. I don't know a lot about their specialized banking or lending services because I mostly go there for quarters hahahahaha but even though I am not a "high-value customer" I never feel less than respected. Also, their Saturday hours are so convenient!”

“Great service, very helpful staff. I went in 10 minutes before my appointment time, a staff saw me waiting in the middle of no where quickly came and asked if I need anything? And I said “I have an appointment and I came early, I’ll wait no worries”. He then quickly helped to direct me to my appointment manager. Mxxx was extremely helpful and very patient, did her best to help process my account opening and credit card approval.Make an appointment online a day before is adequate.Ps: I enjoyed sitting in that very aesthetically pleasing office.”

“My review is for Armando Tello III: Armando has helped me a few times when I’ve come in person do a cash withdrawal and every single time, their demeanor radiates like sunshine. Armando helps you with an air of joy and positivity that absolutely makes my in branch experience a pleasant one. Looking forward to the next time I need to do in person banking. ?”

“Comerica has been my bank for 9 years. They have always had what I consider the best people a bank could hope for. Now at 4th and Wilshire, they are prompt, friendly, and very conscientious. One of their people went out of her way to help me get a card -- and remove certain charges from my statements. I have rarely had to wait at all -- only once that I can remember.”

“This rating is for one employee only. Joseph Farog is the best business account specialist. He is so patient and proactive. I recently had an issue with my business account and he was the only one who 'got it' that this should be an easy situation and cared enough to see it through. He spoke to head offices etc and even found that there is a flaw in the system that should be fixed. Worth his weight in gold.”

“Diving straight into the review, I must confess that when I first walked through the doors of Citi three years ago, I wasn't exactly greeted with fireworks and fanfare. But oh, how perceptions can change! Over time, I've come to realize that Citi is a diamond in the rough, and let me tell you why.

First and foremost, let's talk about the unsung hero of this branch: the illustrious Mesha. Yes, her name might be a bit of a spelling challenge (my apologies, Mesha, if I've butchered it!), but trust me, her impact is anything but forgettable. Mesha, the branch manager extraordinaire, isn't just a financial wizard; she's a beacon of support and guidance in a sea of uncertainty. Our paths crossed not just in the world of banking, but also at the CrossFit gym I used to frequent. Talk about a serendipitous connection! Mesha has been instrumental in navigating me through all my financial endeavors with unparalleled expertise and genuine care.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room: those negative ratings. Sure, every institution has its critics, but I implore you to look beyond the noise. Citi, especially this branch, is a hidden gem for community-driven wealth management. The staff here isn't just about transactions; they're about building lasting relationships. And let me tell you, in an era where faceless transactions dominate, finding a bank that values personal connections is like striking gold.

Sure, with the rise in financial fraud, banks are understandably cautious. But here's a pro tip: make yourself known. Pop into your nearest branch every once in a while, like an old friend dropping by for a chat. Trust me, it makes all the difference. Establishing that personal rapport not only enhances your customer service experience but also ensures that your financial needs are met with precision and care.

In conclusion, Citi at 501 Santa Monica Blvd isn't just a bank; it's a haven for those seeking personalized wealth management and genuine relationships. With Mesha and her exceptional team leading the charge, your financial journey is not just secure—it's destined for greatness. So, to all the skeptics out there, I say this: give Citi a chance, and prepare to be pleasantly surprised. Cheers to community-driven banking at its finest! ??”

“This is the bank I like coming to because they're open later than most banks and they're on top of their business. Michael Gomez usually does a lot to accommodate me with most of my transactions. Just want to give credit where credit is needed so there's that.”

“Fortunately I have been having good to great experiences at this branch. Karina Fuentes had lots kindness when she helped me in 2022. Most recently the manager Robinson Ortiz has been very enthusiastic and professional. He brings positive energy to the entire team there, with a local feel for me as the customer. Mark has been a great part of the team. I know how big banks can be ragged on, but this location has been great with this team. Pls keep the same team, and keep doing what you're doing. Thanks”

“Pleasant experience when I opened my secondary account today. This is by far the BEST Wells Fargo I've ever been in. I wish I could remember the bankers name but I don't. She was so helpful and patient with my son and I. At one point I couldn't believe how fantastic the customer service was....lol... I definitely recommend this branch to anyone who wants to do business with Wells Fargo. Bravo Zulu Wells Fargo!”
