Farmers State Bank, Winthrop, WA

You really know when you have enlisted The BEST Bank, when you have a problem. Anyone can put in money and take it back out, but when things get difficult or some other entity has made a mistake, and your Bank is right there by your side to fix any issue, or find a solution, that is the key to the right choice for where you want to put your financial trust. I can't say enough about this bank and how much piece of mind I have entrusting them with my business, and my personal banking. I can't imagine having to work with any other financial institution after being so spoiled by such fantastic service. A smaller bank committed to Methow Valley through the decades. I have been banking with Farmers State Bank for over three decades so my review is based on 30 years of excellence.

I have used Farmers State Bank for almost 25 years now. Beau and Ed, chief banker/owners, and their small group of employees, Kristin and others, have always been extraordinarily helpful. One time, when our debit card number was stolen from a gas station in Mexico, they stopped payment right after checking with us about the origin of the transaction, saving us much grief and high monetary loss. They are always ready to answer questions, to help with notarization, security boxes, questions about how to purchase federal bonds, etc. They are knowledgeable in so many areas, and humble enough to find the answers when occasionally asked for help outside their area of expertise. It is a lovely local bank, with a high degree of the personable what with the owner/founder/operators being on site every day. Extraordinary in this day and age! Of course, I highly recommend them.

Friendly staff. Courteous. Quaint surrounding. Felt like I'd gone back a hundred years, and this was the type of bank that Jesse James used to hold up. Sorry. Odd hours, close by 3:00 pm.
