Huntington Bank in Huron, OH

Quality bank

I've been coming here for years, and have had a lot of poor customer experiences. Firstmerit used to send out questionnaires on service (this ended a bit before Huntington bought them), and after being very clear in them- the customer service issues were resolved. My last few visits have been fine, no issues from people at all- they greet when you get in line, take care of what is needed, and have you on your way. I really had to use the restroom on my last visit- they were happy to let me use the restroom! This isn't for non customers, and I am careful to leave things in the way that I found them! So why is this a one star? I have contacted Firstmerit about my issue in emails, and through every survey I've received. They do not allow ANYONE but Firstmerits approved security members to carry their equipment in their buildings. It does not matter what ones credentials are, or their legal abilities to carry- if you aren't on the list, it is against policy. That policy is enforceable by law meaning people who follow the law (who have money, use banks, so on) can not break it without risking a felony. Oh, you're a police officer? An FBI agent? You are risking a felony entering this facility if you are not actively ON DUTY. Now combine this with the layout of the facility. There is a long hallway leading from the parking lot to the main area, with a small hallways great for ambushing individuals. Just outside, several large square brick pillars, as well as a row of bushes. Three excellent places for criminals to hide. You know who DOESN'T rob banks? Law abiding citizens and public servants. The people who follow their rules (the law). You know who WOULD rob a bank? Those who don't care what the law is. Who will do whatever they want, whenever they want, regardless of human life in the way. I have one account left here, a loan I am paying off. I have closed all other accounts, and as long as they keep their policy of "no legal defense here! no one here can protect themselves!" and publish it on their building, I will not recommend them or use their services by choice.
