A Great Experience
I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Regions Bank, and especially Mareim Toma, Sr. Consumer Relationship Banker at Alafaya Woods in Oviedo. I had recently been denied when trying to add my name to my husband’s account at another bank, even though he had been banking with them for many years. It was frustrating and honestly a little embarrassing. I needed a bank statement in my name, so I searched for a bank that could help me and found Regions. I called the branch nearest me, and thankfully Mareim answered. From the very first phone call, she was incredibly kind, warm and reassuring. She told me to come in and that she would personally help me. I did, and I was approved for a standard checking account. What impressed me most, though, wasn’t simply being approved. It was how I was treated. Mareim never once made me feel embarrassed or judged. She was patient, compassionate and genuinely happy to help. She even sat with me and walked me through setting up my online banking before I left. I walked into Regions feeling nervous and walked out feeling incredibly grateful.Mareim is one of those rare people who reminds you how much kindness matters. As a Christian myself, I especially appreciated meeting such a kind and compassionate Christian lady. My husband will now be opening an account with Regions as well and transferring his direct deposit. Regions currently has some very attractive incentives for opening an account and setting up direct deposit, which is certainly a nice bonus—but that is NOT why we are recommending them. The service is. When someone treats you with dignity, patience and genuine kindness when you’re already feeling vulnerable, you remember it. Thank you, Mareim Toma. You are an absolute blessing, and Regions Bank is very fortunate to have you.
