Lakeland Bank Franklin Ave, Nutley

I really wish Lakeland didn't constantly cut off my debit card for suspicious fraud. I know they're trying to protect customers but it's a little much. Often I cannot make purchases using my card at certain very reputable online stores. It's very selective of who they trust. I make purchases often with certain US stores that are directly and obviously relatable to my business, but it still flags the companies as fraud and they have been around forever. I cannot even use the card at Home Depot or Lowes online. It's hit or miss when they will block your card. I have the funds, but they choose to not let me use it at many vendors. For that reason I am not very happy with my bank. The local workers are great but this needs to change (corporate) issues with constant fraud checks. It's overkill. I also am not able to use it with any Canadian company online.

I was denied a checking account because of "911". This is a "community" bank. If you are not apart of that "community", they will not do business with you.

Save yourself time. Lakeland bank is waste of time go to a real bank. So happy I left months ago and went to Chase! The people at Chase are great, I will say nutley Lakeland had a nice manager but the rest of the bank wasn’t good at all. Old technology and the mobile app didn’t work. Save your time go with Chase :)
