Arvest person squared up to fight while settleingf my Dead fathers affairs
Was trying to settle my dead fathers affairs and Rene (Male) literally stared me down like he was going to take a swing at me.. Dad just died and this "Manager" just escalated and escalated. Horrible way to treat customers.

ALWAYS A GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE.
I love ARVEST. I have been banking with them for several years and each time whether it is in person, in the drive through or over the phone, I always have an excellent customer experience at all of the Arvest locations that I have used, mainly 15th and Utica in Tulsa. When I have to call, I have never had a long wait and I talk to a real person (LOVE THAT!) I hope they continue the great service they provide.

Review of Arrest Wealth Management
Review of Arrest Wealth Management: Deceptive Practices and Exploitative Tactics
Our family’s experience with Arrest Wealth Management has been nothing short of a nightmare. Following the passing of our father, my sisters and I, all of whom were listed as beneficiaries on his account, were forced to navigate a series of unscrupulous and exploitative tactics employed by this firm.
Upon our father’s death, instead of a straightforward transfer of funds, Arrest Wealth Management insisted that each of us open separate brokerage accounts. This unnecessary step was clearly designed to generate additional fees for the firm. We were subjected to exorbitant trading fees simply to access the inheritance that rightfully belonged to us. This tactic is a blatant attempt to siphon money from grieving families at their most vulnerable moments.
What’s worse, the firm repeatedly tried to coerce us into leaving our funds within their management, despite our explicit desires to withdraw the money. The pressure and manipulation we faced were both unprofessional and unethical. We were given misleading information about the process and faced significant delays, all of which seemed calculated to benefit the firm financially at our expense.
Arrest Wealth Management’s behavior has been appalling, characterized by a lack of transparency and a blatant disregard for the rights of beneficiaries. Their practices are predatory, and they appear to prioritize their profit over the well-being and rights of their clients.
I strongly advise anyone considering their services to think twice and seek a firm with integrity and a genuine commitment to ethical practices. Our ordeal should serve as a cautionary tale for others.
In summary, our interaction with Arrest Wealth Management and adviser JG has been deeply distressing and financially damaging. We hope our experience will prevent others from falling victim to their exploitative practices.

Have no idea what they are doing
Was working with them to get a VA loan, they keep having me re-do and provide information and socks that we had already given them. They were trying to get us to take out a conventional Mortgage, the loan person did not know what she was doing, it’s was like we were her 1st VA or any customer she was doing a mortgage for, wasn’t like 2 months of our time. We ended up going with another bank and it was so simple and Laos out for us. We ended up closing all our accounts with Artist.

Spoke with Customer service about a…
Spoke with Customer service about a large deposited check. Her name was Cassandra. Zero Help. They have a check on hold due to suspected fraud. I have deposited checks from my employer many of times to Arvest bank and it hasn't happened until now. Now they are saying the suspect it is a bad check. I won't use Arvest Again after this. The check is good with Millions of dollars behind it.

Arvest slap stole my money
Arvest slap stole my money. I open an account 3weeks later my account is locked and they can’t tell me why. And asked if I can go get my money they say yes. I get there and they said they cut a check and sent it off in mail. To place which I no longer live 500mi away. And it would be 90 days before they can cut new check.
Lairs and theives. I’ll not forget the smirking smile on bank mangers face as she didn’t care about my pain she caused
I call main branch they say yea come on to another branch and you’ll straighten out. Get there nope. That one laughed at me. What a no good institution. It’s really no wonder americas banks are failing. What can I do but write this complaint. If said I’ll rob them. I go to prison. They slap heisted me.

Arvest closed my account without a peep & I'm 2000 miles away, penniless.
Arvest closed my account without a warning or hint & it's a personal disaster of epic proportions. I found out by accident & can only beg my friends for help to get back to the US from Mexico.
Why is Arvest doing this? I could write a book about the last month, but the upshot is, their reps. have spent 50+ hours on the phone with me trying to send a wire transfer that Arvest doesn't want sent. Reps didn't know that, I didn't know that, so we kept trying. I was told by Heather, Hannah, Michael, Alex, Brandon, Billy Audrey, Ashley & MANY MORE that they were going to work it out.
But. Even though Arvest's own senior rep told me on a recorded call - "I KNOW IT'S YOU". Even though My daughter is on my account - different reps told me yes, they could see that, she wasn't allowed to wire it for me at the branch, either. Even when, AT THE BANK'S SUGGESTION, daughter went in and opened her own account so I could transfer the money to her account & she could send it... NO!
Many other antics suggested by staff, weeks on the phone & then Arvest cut me off without a word.
A coward named Hunter said that, in more than a month (!) they'll be mailing a cheque to my address in the US. 2,045 miles away from where I am now. That'll be a big help.
They told me our "relationship" wasn't "mutually beneficial". I felt like someone threw a cooler of ice water over me. Talk about getting real. I hung up because I couldn't rationally respond to a mindless automaton of a soul-less jackal.
Lastly: I strongly believe that reviews on this site from the following accounts are all fake. They use the same shallow verbiage, relate no first hand experiences, use lots of emojis, are all 5 star reviews & all but one account has only 1 review. Because you how dumb we all are, right? Those dad-burned fancy bankers outsmarted us again!
