Abbeville First Bank S Main St, Abbeville

This community bank is fantastic. Thanks to crushing government regulation in the financial sector, community banks are a dying breed. Abbeville First Bank is a haven for people and small businesses who appreciate the kind of personal service that used to be common decades ago. I'm so glad I moved my accounts here!

Upon initially starting to bank here, we were very happy with our service. We were able to get a loan at a time when it was harder to do so. In the last few years, it seems they are going a bit more the way of the larger banks. Our account has not dipped below 35k in several years. Evidently, last year, I received several letters informing me that I was automatically going to be placed in secure checking, but to receive any benefits whatsoever, I had to opt in. In other words, I have to do something in order to not pay a monthly fee for something I don't want. Now that I have opted out, my normally free checking will severely limit, the check transactions I can make without a charge. This is not the actions of a community bank, but rather going the way of the big banks. And if I get better service at a larger bank, well, now you know what I'm doing.

We have been with Abbeville First Bank for years. Everyone there makes you feel welcome. I wouldn't bank anywhere else. In my opinion they are number 1.

For those of you that received a dear John letter from United Community Bank, go by Abbeville First Bank and see Vickie, and she will fix you up.

Always very helpful and friendly make you feel like your a person not an account
