Upon trying to transfer money to or from this bank AFTER doing the deposit verification and 2 factor authentication process from an external account, this bank forces an additional verification step in when you call the branch, and leave a voicemail(yawn).Later in the day or week, while you are working or unavailable, someone tries to call you and ASKS YOU TO VERIFY YOURSELF. Thanks for calling me, random stranger. Yes I would like to give you all my personal info on a whim.So, logging into your own account with 2 factor auth means nothing. Connecting an external account and waiting several days to complete the deposit verification means nothing.I was then asked to provide pretty much every shred of info that I gave upon account creation such as: social, last 4 of account, last 4 of external account, security questions, and date of birth.All this for a transfer of money. I fully expect this bank not to survive. They're paying human beings to spend their day calling and harassing bank members for personal information when every large interstate/national bank in the area has automated this process and made it rather convenient.

I’ve been banking here for 12+ years since it was previously Florida Business bank. Since the switch it’s expected to lose the close friend relationship treatment but from experience this new staff has been very pleasant and professional. Patient and quick to want to help. The one down side to Florida Business Bank was they had no perks for people that did not own businesses such as myself. Sea coast bank has not only perks for businesses but also the employees under those businesses. This is a win win if you ask me. The staff is very friendly and it’s a pleasure to build new relationships with the staff. I fail to understand how locked doors warrant a bad review. It’s a bank and it holds my money I want those doors locked. Specially seeing how local banks are targeted and local banks hold local money. Please buzz me in to the club! I would highly suggest this bank over these big name banks that are also local. Those banks you deal with bank employees that just wanna work and go home attitude that is felt clear as you make eye contact and hear them speak. Here you meet locals like yourself and make friends. I felt immediately that and my family were valued here and not just some random small account holder. I got the sense that everyone that steps in those buzzed in doors is treated the same with dignity and respect as one wants to be treated. This bank has my approval and I will vouch and spread the word to bank here. I’ve had Eileen and Patty and Aurora amongst a few treat me very kindly and educate me to perks and different opportunities that are now available to myself and my family. I have nothing but great things to say about the bank and it’s friendly helpful kind staff. A+ all day

They recently bought out my small bank that I’ve had for years and was always very attentive, friendly, and helpful to me. They closed out my debit card and sent a new one, but my new pin never came. It was difficult to get to the actual bank because they close at 4 pm every day now, and I work full time. When I finally got there, they were not particularity friendly like the old tellers that they fired. I plan on moving my money somewhere else. Not impressed.
