I like Santander Bank because they are generally competent, rarely is there a long wait, and the staff is generally pleasant. A glaring exception to this is the bank officer, Marguerit. Recently I had to make a wire transfer of funds to another state, so I called ahead to ask how the process works. I got Marguerit on the phone and, after a few minutes of incoherent blather, the message I was left with was, "I can't guarantee anything." Exasperated by this exchange, I called the Farmington Avenue branch in West Hartford, and the process was explained clearly and simply. The day of the wire transfer came around and I found myself at Marguerit's desk. I calmly handed her the instructions I was sent by the title company, adding that we needed to call them for the routing number. "I'm not calling anyone." she replied. I walked out. Stay away from this surly, incompetent moron. Everyone else at the bank seems OK.
