Customer Service reps are very nice, well trained but... this bank engages in delayed posting of deposits, manipulates check/ debit and deposits posting dates to create fees.

Very, very, very bad experience. Will never have any business with this bank. Worse costumer service ever. They created so many hurdles just trying to waste your time. Even after you brought everything they requested they made up more excuses until you ask for their headquarters address and the phone of somebody who could make the decision, and bring legal actions, after all that, all of a sudden they don’t need anything extra.

TCF is a worst bank ever. They cheat customers to making money on the fees. They don't reflect correctly transactions on the account and then charge a fee, which is 37 dollars. they don't inform customers about transactions intentionally just to charge them. Terrible bank ever.

TCF is NOT for the customer, it is for their "Business." They make ALL of their money "Hitting," customers with fees and REDICULOUS overdrafts. I will be moving on. I think ending a 14 year relationship of one sided benefits is more then enough!

TCF customer service in bank is friendly and attentive. Calling in to customer service is a nightmare.

I had a major problem with TCF Bank this past summer when the Bank changed their online banking system. It affected bill auto pay and caused a lapse in payments to my insurance company, which in turn resulted in a premature cancellation of my policy. The episode cost me over $1,000. My wife does her banking at Wells Fargo and it gave plenty of ammunition in attempting to convince me to switch to WF. I… read more

TCF has the HIGHEST fees from all banks in my area (Michigan). And they will charge for everything from using your debit card to pay at the store, to transferring funds from checking to savings.

Also their new Digital Banking is causing lots of duplicate answers to my financial software. Talking to Intuit… read more

In a word: horrible. Stay far, far away from this nightmare of an experience from the website to the customer service line to the joke of a mobile app. Overdraft fees are insane at $37, sometimes more if they cover it. Lost my card and spend 48+ hours trying to cancel it by calling it. Waited 30+ minutes at least 5 different times before finally getting through. Keep your money away from TCF Bank

TCF Customer Service is of the lowest level of all banks in the United States. I have been attempting to get assistance with access to my account after their conversion to digital. I have been on hold for over 2 hours. When I get through, I've been disconnected 3 times. I can not pay my bills because of their poor service. I will be changing banks.

TCF was my first bank due to its proximity to my work place. I haven't had any problems with overdraft fees because I keep it simple by depositing what I what I will use and never going into the negative. Occasionally I would get mail regarding possible overdraft fees because of my low balance, why do they use that as a scare tactic I'm not sure.

This checking account as worked out really well for me. There is no minimum balance, I've never had to deal with a single fee, and its very easy to use the check card when I'm out and about. Frankly I rarely carry cash anymore because the card makes it so easy. All you have to do to is set up the overdraft protection so you can't overdraw and you won't ever have any fees.

TCF is fine until you have an overdraft. The few times it's happened to me, they've taken out the smaller amounts first, so you overdraft more often, even though that wasn't the order of your purchases. Customer service is nice enough and they'll take off up to 5 overdraft fees a year. I've had to watch my balance more often because of this.
