I had a good experience updating my CD. I don’t understand why the person doing the transaction needs to get permission to change the rate.

One branch was unable to assist, but did reach out to another branch that could. They were fully prepared by the time I made to the second branch and was only in the building for 3 minutes.

I had a very bad experience with this…

I had a very bad experience with this company. They make big promises at the beginning, but once you trust them, everything changes. Their support is unhelpful, they delay responses, and you never get what was promised. Feels like a scam operation designed to take money and disappear. I strongly advise everyone to stay away from this site.
