Best customer service call ever

Marshawna Made this call so smooth and had great information and in-site. She made me feel very comfortable and was very helpful. Answered every question thoroughly, was able to provide everything I needed, and the conversation made me feel like I was speaking with someone I know personally yet we are strangers. Makes me feel like she genuinely loves what she does.

Representative (Alana Tate) represented First Tech very well

Representative (Alana Tate) was very personable and helpful, despite finding that First Tech did not provide the type of loan (California Go Green for Solar). And she also provided a very thorough answer for another question I had. Very much enjoyed the interaction with her.

First Tech has always been a great to do business with.

First Tech has always been a great place to invest especially with their rates being much better than traditional banks. As a Premier Rewards Banking member, I had the pleasure to work with Eileen Alvarez and she has always provided very prompt, high-quality answers to all my questions and inquiries. In this age of AI, it is great to still have 1:1 service from a highly qualified person that is looking out for your best interests. Thanks Eileen (& First Tech)!

Amazing Customer Service

I spoke to Jose Flores and Roselyn (if I remember the name correctly) due to a dispute case. During my experience with customer service, they were both amazing. They showed great empathy for my situation and I felt they did everything in their power to help. Easily best customer service I’ve interacted with in years. So kind and clearly know their stuff!
