Peter was so rude to me...all I was doing was asking questions about my beneficiary account and he kept cutting me off not letting me speak, he was so nasty and he also hung up on me. I am filing complaints with the DOB and BBB also will be pursuing legal action.

The worst service in bank history bordering on criminal. Eastern bank after knowing my account was being charged fraudulent it continues happening week to week turning my $750 check into a $ 167 dollar available amount! Now they have been making excuses why they won't pay me about $4000 that they know they owe. For example there excuses range from waiting for mail for my reimbursement check then it has to be signed but that manager isn't in for personal reasons I'm so pissed it's been months of this bullshit excuses. I'm currently homeless because of this bank not to mention my family has lend me money to eat has been sickeningly humiliated. If you're looking for a bank steer clear of eastern bank there crooked.......12/27/24 still waiting for my reimbursement. Didn't need the Grinch this year I got eastern bank!!!!!!!

The Tellers and Management of the Back Bay Bank are excellent; however, the Customer Service is beyond bad. When I call I am told that due to many calls I will have to wait to speak to someone. After 5 minutes I am then asked if I want a Call Back and not lose my place in Line. I agree; however, no Call Back. Eastern Bank is not interested in Customer Service.

It's more difficult to navigate. Not as easy to see what's what in a glance like the old app. Eastern Bank, if it isn't broken don't fix it. The old one was perfectly fine.

Last year Eastern started closing the day after Thanksgiving in order to give their employees a long weekend. Personally I have no issue with that. As a matter of fact I find it admirable that they do that for their employees. That said, here's the issue I have with Eastern which is directly related to closing the day after Thanksgiving. Not only are the branches and corporate offices closed but any transactions that are processed on that day, such as a mobile or ATM check deposit for example, are not posted until the following Tuesday morning. So even though the day after Friday is considered a regular business day, it's NOT considered a business day in the eyes of Eastern Bank. What's disconcerting about this is that if someone makes a good faith check deposit whether through the mobile app or at an ATM, and is expecting to have those funds available for that upcoming weekend, they are SOL. If that's going to be the "official Bank policy" then so be it but they do not mention ANYWHERE either on their website, social media, branch offices etc...the fact that any electronic check deposits will not post until Monday evening/Tuesday morning and something as important as that should definitely be relayed to the customers. Frankly what Eastern should be doing is focusing more on the needs of their banking customers than promoting a woke agenda which they seem to be so preoccupied with lately. There are many small banks and credit unions, competing for my business, that don't subscribe to such nonsense that Eastern Bank promotes.

We have been unable to get Eastern Bank to transfer money from a 401k CD to another financial institution. They refuse to accept valid paperwork, Medallion Signature Guarantee etc etc. They ignored the transfer paperwork and renewed the three year CD at .015 % interest. That is correct really no interest on 4/10/23. Yes the Massachusetts Banking commission has a complaint filed about this.
