    By the way, when I went to first federal to apply, I initially went in to apply for a mortgage loan. I did not qualify because I had defaulted on my previous mortgage loan by six months. And my experience with the lender at that point in time was awesome. She shared jokes and I shared mines. We had good laughs and good vibes. I would definitely recommend her. Then I made my way to the tellers to open up a bank account. Because, you know, it’s local to where I live and I don’t have to drive 2 hours to a branch. My experience with the teller was amazing. She was interactive and engaged with me in a conversation. She even went above and beyond to get me additional information and provided steps to get paid for having monies in my account. Then I went to Carolyn who was my auto loan person. When I initially sat down with her she greeted me and went straight to business without making any small talk. She asked for the VIN number on my car and told me what it was worth and asked if I had the money tk put down. She made an assumption that I couldn’t afford to put any money down. She even expressed that she didn’t want to start the process if I didn’t have any money. While I get her intent, the impact that it had was much worse. I expressed tk her that I was feeling discriminated against and felt like I was being rejected before the process even started. And is illegal to discourage someone tk apply for a loan. While she did express she has only been in role for 6 months, I do want to point out “intent vs impact”. I will be submitting a complain to the consumer financial protection bureau I hopes that some training will be conducted. It is against the Equal Credit Opportunity Act to discourage or discriminate while providing a loan service. When I look at Carolyn j see a product of how First Federal wants to engage with their community.

    I personally want to say that I have worked with many other banks and bank personnel in the area thru thepast years, but no one has been as great, fast, and professional and always willing to help and go the extra mile to help anyone like Loralee has. She always answers all my questions and gives me the best options.

    We are so thankful for Loralee Mckee and all the staff and the Jerome Branch. Loralee works hard to make the transactions smooth and easy. We wouldn't consider changing.
