Bank of America (with Drive-thru ATM) Golden Valley Rd, Santa Clarita

I will travel past many B of A branches to do even an ATM transaction here. Why? Because this is BofA's best branch in the Santa Clarita Valley. They've just re-done the inside - clean, modern - but the people are still human. When I go to lunch and pay the tip with cash, if I leave a $2 bill, some servers seem extra appreciative - so every time I go to this branch, I ask them for some $2 bills (and I pay for them, of course) - and they always provide some. One time, they even ordered a whole bunch of new $2 bills - and it felt like Christmas. And you can go inside to use the ATM, with their sleek, clear glass floor-to-ceiling dividers between the ATM area and the rest of the branch. And the ATMs keep getting upgraded. Not just the software, but the whole machine - new dispensers for cash, new ways to accept checks, while still keeping all the special features for those who need them (might be me, someday). Even if you have a convenient branch, I recommend that you try this one - you can see it way up on the hill when travelling on Soledad, and it's near Rattlers, Sam's Club and Walmart. I bet you'll like those $2 bills.

A decent location, though the drive-up ATM has a very awkward left turn which narrows. I haven't scraped my car, but I'm sure others haven't been so lucky. BofA has some bad fees, but their branches are everywhere, which is a major advantage over other banks.

Line is almost out the door and there is 1 Teller at the window. Other employees not willing to open another window. Customers in line are getting frustrated. Too many banks available these days to tolerate poor service.

They are closed temporarily. So annoying...should have been on maps.

friendly and courteous , great staff
