I worked with Gabby and she helped me with my overdraft transactions. She was extremely helpful and attentive to my concerns following the transition from Spire to Blaze due to some previous issues

Since Spire Merged with Blaze, service has gone to shit. I've been on hold for at least 22-25 mins, 4 different times to ask a simple question. Ridiculous.

I worked with Jonah, who was actually a teller in training, just yesterday and he was super patient and helpful! He even called me back the next day to ensure what he said was going to happen went through, even when he didn’t have to. Above and beyond! Thanks man!
