Very impersonal here...most likely due to all the scammers. Therefore, we're all treated like scammers.
On the rare occasion I go inside (money orders, notary), I can't recall seeing the same manager twice.
I get much better service from the "1-800" call-in line.

Change banks. try to find a locally owned one. I am not kidding.
I never pay for:
Notary
Money orders
Cashiers Checks
Wire Transfers (how I bought my Porsche and my vacation house in NC)
Overdrafts (forgeting to transfer payroll)
The list goes on.
I needed a loan 5 years ago 5 years prior to that I was almost bankrupt. ( Read - Bad Credit) I needed a favor. This bank floated me the loan no questions asked.
It pays to be friends with your branch manager. In return I have given her heavily discounted services for her personal use. I own her.
