Wellesley Bank

My wife and I were fortunate enough that a friend recommended Wellesley Bank to us last year. We had a rather complicated home purchase to make and it needed the right bank and the right banker. We received both from Wellesley Bank. Since then, not only do they have our original mortgage, but we have now done a construction loan with them that has been as smooth as possible and I am in the process of moving our corporate accounts away from Bank of America to Wellesley Bank.
It may sound silly since this bank gave us the best deal and the best mortgage, but my 2 year old loves to come visit for the free cookies and the constant attention he gets when he walks in. While you can’t time warp back to the 60’s where you had a relationship with your banker AND your bank, Wellesley Bank is as close as it gets.
Lindsay you’re the best!

I originally found myself at Wellesley Bank while wandering desolately down the street after failing to open an account at a large national bank because — and I’m not joking — said large national bank told me that their computer system said I was dead, and thus not eligible for a checking account. Thank GOD they turned me away and I ended up at Wellesley Bank.
They not only have the best service I’ve ever had at a bank, they may well have the best service I’ve ever received *anywhere*. Always patient and helpful, and I’ve always felt valued as an individual customer. They even have goddamn candy bowls, or they did when I was there — hope they still do. Don’t you want a lollipop while you make your deposits? Don’t lie, you totally do.
I’m seriously bummed that I’ve moved out of state and thus can’t really bank here anymore. If your priority is being able to find your bank’s ATMs everywhere you travel, then yeah, the teeny tiny local bank is not going to be your best bet. But if you live in the area and you want a bank that’ll give you the warm fuzzies instead of stressing you out, RUN to Wellesley Bank. Really can’t recommend them enough.
