Only giving one star because I can’t give 0. I put in a travel notice before I went out of the country. Then had to call multiple times while out of the country in order to get my card unlocked so I could use it in order to buy food. I was hung up on multiple times by their security department and their Whitefish office. I am shutting down my parkside account and will never use them for a single thing ever again. If you expect competence in a financial institution, I would suggest you use ANY other bank.
Jen at the Kalispell Sunset Blvd. branch was friendly, helpful, and worked hard to get me just what I was looking for. So impressed with her stellar customer service!
I opened an account with Jennifer Janik. Was super easy and fast. She's very efficient, kind and fun! Then depositing my money was a breeze. Was such a pleasant experience, no regrets!
The team at Parkside sunset was amazing ! Not only was i applying for my first credit card but I only had Fridays to do it......😒 But the Parkside team was incredible not only was it explained thoroughly, but I was able to apply and get my credit card the same day.
They were very kind and nice to me and I very much appreciate them doing that!
