Banner Bank - Ephrata (WA)

J H I started with inherited funds in a ML branch in Idaho; that branch sucked. Then I transferred all accounts to a ML branch in Federal Way; that branch was awesome. Then the Federal Way branch was merged with the Tacoma branch. (It is my understanding that almost all of the ML employees from the Federal Way branch quit shortly after the merger.) I haven’t asked much of the Tacoma branch - keep my funds where they are and make disbursements when I request. They have failed on the disbursements. The previous disbursement took far longer than it should have - they had cash on hand for several business days before they initiated a transferred to my bank - only after several of my voicemails inquiring about the status of the disbursement, and they never called back to give me any status reports. And, that disbursement was in the wrong amount: I asked for X gross and Y net after taxes; I got Y gross and Z net after taxes. The current disbursement appears to be headed in the same direction. I called and asked for a disbursement (Day 1); the following business day they sold some investments to have enough cash (Day 2); two business days to settle (Day3-4). Cash is on hand. It is now business Day 10 and still no indication of a pending transfer to my bank. I’m counting business days - not weekends or holidays. This time I’m not calling to inquire - I want to see how long they forget to do their job. And, if they aren’t doing the simple task of disbursements, what else aren’t they doing?

M Guerrero Easy on and off the highway location. The staff was already inside before 9 AM which is when they open. ♿️ Handicap parking in front of the door which was very convenient for me. ATM outside the double doors and inside the double doors. Next to Subway in front of Safeway. Looked very clean.

Husam Hayali I had the pleasure of working with Fuad, and I couldnt be happier with the outcome. With two businesses and multiple income sources, my taxes were quite complex. However, Fuad expertly navigated me through the application process and various forms, ensuring everything was done correctly. What truly impressed me was the seamless online experience; despite the distance between us (hes in Washington, Im in California), we managed to accomplish everything virtually. I highly recommend Fuads services to anyone seeking knowledgeable and efficient tax assistance.

Adam Lang Kevin and his team saved our family $6,000 this year in health insurance premiums. Besides the premium savings, the policy they found has no deductible (only copays). Compare that to the $11,000 family deductible on the plan offered by my new employer (at $500 more per month), and you can see why I am proud to write this glowing, 5-star review for Kevin and Riverbend Insurance. Beyond the savings, Kevin was able to answer all of my questions and walk me through various scenarios (lots of doctor visits vs. few, specialists vs. regular visits, emergency care, etc.) in terms of plan and cost. Im the type of person who wants to understand all the details, which Im sure annoys many professionals. Kevin was incredibly patient and actually seemed happy that I wanted to have all our ducks in a row before pulling the trigger. I also had to follow up a few times after buying the policy to make sure I was clear on payment and policy number. His team answered the phone the first time I called and was able to answer my questions. Id recommend anyone who is looking for a better insurance rate to call Riverbend and let Kevin and his team do the work to find the best deal
