      Be careful if you use them for a loan. Secured an SBA loan through them (that process was a complete nightmare in and of itself) and they did not disclose to me that I would be responsible for $8,000 attorney fees for THEIR lawyer. I found this out at my closing on my purchase.

      One of worst experiences with the inside clerks. The little brown headed teller that works back and forth at the front. You belong in the back, your attitude and you personally DO NOT need to be working with the public. This lady makes her coworkers even ill working with her. I sat and heard how much her client 'wanted her' and he was paying her a compliment by saying she looked sweeter in a dress.
      Take that however you want to. This is one of the rudest women and I wouldn't even let her take my garbage out.

      For the past 8 months UNCB has been a nightmare for us. We had our accounts hacked in December. We had to do mew accounts and had to wait for money to be returned to us because your bank is not secure via internet. If a charge shows pending and I advise it is fraudulent, why do you have it go through my account? After re-doing everything, using card control on my phone and checking my account every day, and adding a VPA security account to my computer ($200), I thought everything would be okay. Now, someone has hacked my debit card, which is supposed to be secure and my husband cannot use his card because it keeps coming up as declined. When I called the bank, they said it was closed on my end, but I am showing it open. I cannot get help from anyone. I talk to friends about my terrible experience with your bank, and none of them have issues like we have experienced. I would like someone to resolve this current issue. We are very frustrated and we are seeking another bank that is more secure and cares about their customers.

      United Community needs to provide better security on the back end. I have had my account hacked twice and I had to experience going without funds. I talk to my friends and they bank at Regions and they have never had a problem. Instead of updating your logo, why don't you update your security measures? Instead of allowing a pending charge to go through after a customer has told you it is fraudulent, delete it right away. I am not satisfied with this bank at all. Their customer service is terrible. I have waited for a charge to be taken off my account for two weeks and it is still there. I am a very unhappy long-time customer and I am sure you will tell me to take my business elsewhere, which I intend to do. Show that you care about your customers and put tighter security measures in place. Don't allow pending items to go through if a customer tells you it is not authorized! I am not satisfied because, over the past six months, my account has been hacked twice. I have had to spend a lot of money to get a VPN just so I can try to protect my account. Taker resposnisblity for your terrible service and poor IT security.

      I've used UCB for three accounts and a builder's loan. My experience with their staff and policies has never been anything except for exemplary. A breath of fresh air compared to the megabanks that I have banked with in the past.

      So community bank called me six times within the past few hour (was in class) and left no vm nothing. I was curious and frustrated on who kept calling me so I googled it and found out. The gentlemen then called again and I told him my problem. How are you a business trying to get in contact with people and not leave a vm. His response was well sometimes we leave a vm. Uhhh thats not a professional business answer. Very rude and disgusting and you should probably monitor your calls because if I had a question I would never call and ask to deal with that type of employee.
