### 4/5 — A growing institution

*2025-11-08, version 5.0.43.165*

Good little Bank and now with the merger with Mechanics Bank it opens up a few more convenient locations for out of area banking in Southern California

### 4/5 — Calling the branch

*2024-09-20, version 5.0.31.578*

It is so hard to call the branch at Hollywood you will be put on hold and forget you or sometimes it just ring and ring when it was still on Vermont blvd it is easy to contact by phone 1 ring and somebody picks up right away I just went to the branch to do my thing so upsetting

### 2/5 — Works ok, when it works

*2024-08-15, version 5.0.31.578*

Fails to log in about 30% of the time due to “an unknown error.” There were even more login problems on the Android version (in my experience)- but still not great on iOS. Often, the website also won’t log in when this happens- so there’s no way to transfer money or check your balance when it has “unknown errors.” Frustratingly, this sometimes happens when everyone gets paid- Fridays and the first of the month. This of course means waiting to pay bills and do your budget if it randomly fails.

While Homestreet has good banking-related customer service, the IT side of things is not  helpful. I’ve gotten the impression that reps have no way of fixing- or even reporting- ongoing issues like this.

The “search” feature to look for specific transactions on the app is awful, and has none of the helpful features that the website has. You can deposit checks, see your balances, change card security settings, and all the other basics for mobile banking. I guess for a smallish bank it’s ok, but it feels like it’s about 5 years overdue for a major update.

### 5/5 — I’m a happy customer.

*2024-08-14, version 5.0.31.578*

We’ve always been happy with our service.

### 5/5 — Love this bank

*2024-08-05, version 5.0.31.578*

I love this bank. The Mission Gorge branch is absolutely wonderful. All the people work. There are very friendly and very very helpful. Never had such a wonderful bank

### 5/5 — Deposit check

*2024-05-28, version 5.0.31.578*

It’s my first time to deposit check and its too easy thank you

### 5/5 — Excellent bank customer service

*2024-05-03, version 5.0.31.578*

We used to live in Seattle and our little bank and Queen Anne had a wonderful manager and assistant managers

### 5/5 — Users Friendly

No worry and secure; user friendly👍👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Transfer

*2024-04-24, version 5.0.31.578*

Transfer transaction was very expedient.  Right on time.

### 5/5 — Mobile deposits

*2024-03-15, version 5.0.31.578*

Depositing checks via mobile deposit has simplified life so much and saved a lot of travel time and energy as well as gas for my car. Great service! Thanks!

### 5/5 — Love my bank!

*2024-02-27*

All the branches I’ve gone to in Seattle (downtown, U-District, by University Village & Broadway) have always had friendly, extremely helpful, and knowledgeable.  I’ve been with them since they first came to Seattle and have recommended them many times to others.

### 5/5 — HomeStreet Bank

*2023-11-30*

I am not a fan of the new ways of doing my banking in this new internet age.  However, HomeStreet Bank has kept my money safe and assisted me through various financial transactions.  Thanks to everyone involved for making my banking experiences not only possible but easier for me as well!
I hope to stay with you for another 10+years!  Thanks again!!!  TM

### 1/5 — Mechanics Bank Broke Homestreet’s App

*2026-02-28, version 5.0.43.165*

After the merger, I was no longer able to logon. Since then the login has been sporadically successful. Of course, the same credentials continue to work on the website. However, the app was always significantly better than the Website experience. Now it’s unreliable and usually not accessible. Looking for a new bank.

### 1/5 — Dynamic loading/scrolling

*2025-04-26, version 5.0.42.528*

My FaceID login Stop Working

Also Please improve Dynamic scrolling. When I’m scrolling down in my account and if I did little bit too fast it’s reset and I am not where I was in scrolling. Also. If I select section of a particular transaction from my spending, once I go back it tries me on top of the page but should be at same place on that page where I selected before.

### 1/5 — No access to mortgage

*2024-12-28, version 5.0.31.578*

Useless if you have a mortgage with them

### 1/5 — Mobile deposit

*2024-07-23, version 5.0.31.578*

Very disappointed with this branch.  Staffs are not friendly.  I bank with Kaiser Credit Union for over 30 years.  I have no problems.

### 1/5 — My Request

*2024-04-03, version 5.0.31.578*

I would like a calculation at every money transaction with balance of money in account.

### 1/5 — Frequently Forgets Password

*2023-11-27, version 5.0.20.4681148423*

Unlike all my other banking apps this one forgets the password at least once a month. I would say it is my phone but happens to a coworker’s Android with similar frequency.

Also don’t assume CDs will renew with similar rate.  They will switch to a different term with a ridiculously lower rate, 1/22nd as much in my case.  I was out of town and didn’t see new rate until it was too late. 

Legal, sure.  Super shady, you bet.

### 1/5 — Log in problems

*2023-11-23, version 5.0.20.4681148423*

The issues with app login have resulted in forced password reset roughly a dozen times at this point. I love homestreet but a bug this bad in the context of running a business is insanely unacceptable. I hope one day to change this to 5 stars. You need to fix this.

### 1/5 — Log-in issues

*2023-10-26*

I’ve been a Homestreet customer for over 30 years.  I’ve always had great service in person.  The mobile app is extremely frustrating.  I am constantly locked out of my account.  I am constantly getting authenticate messages, then locked out and have to call customer service.  I’m treated like it’s my fault, suggesting I’m entering the wrong password.  After reading through other reviews, it appears the face log on has glitches and is likely causing these issues.  I would have appreciated customer service acknowledging these issues instead of constantly being told I’m entering the wrong password.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-09-24, version 5.0.20.4681148423*

I really don’t appreciate the service terrible!!!

### 1/5 — This bank is stuck in 1975

*2023-04-25, version 5.0.20.4681148423*

I’m consistently disappointed in HomeStreet Bank.  Eventually they will go away because the baby boomers will die off and nobody will want to bank the same way they did in 1975.

### 5/5 — Great app for banking

*2025-11-17, version 5.0.43.165*

It's a great-looking app, very clear and well organized.

### 5/5 — Highest Regards

*2025-11-02, version 5.0.43.165*

Homestreet Bank is the finest banking service I have known in my long life. The management and staff at the Wedgwood Branch are consistently supportive and quick to respond to helping me when needed.

I have had some considerable challenges this morning with the new system adjustments, and am uncertain whether to have succeeded in making the correct changes. 

Otherwise, never once have I been disappointed in choosing Homestreet Bank back in February 2008!

Thank you always. 

Pamela

### 5/5 — Working RN

*2025-10-22, version 5.0.42.825*

### 5/5 — Over the Phone Support

*2025-10-18*

Dalton was extremely helpful and polite as he walked me through the steps of depositing a check using HomeStreet Mobile Banking. I greatly appreciated his willingness and professionalism in patiently working with me as we completed each step of the transaction. Kudos to you Dalton! You are the very best. 
Thank you!

### 5/5 — A good bank

*2025-02-28*

I love the fast personal service available at our local branch. Gina has worked there for decades. She always remembers me and has been extremely helpful. The app works well too. I like HomeStreet much better than a commercial bank across the street where getting service has been an issue.

### 5/5 — Is there any other Bank??

*2024-11-30*

Wedgewood Homestreet. Always a fire burning. It does feel like Home. My husband passed away. I moved and Wedgewood Homestreet was chosen as my new Bank. Everyone always knew the answers I needed. Everybody was always kind and thorough for me although I did see them do the same for other people!!!!

When I hear other people unhappy with their bank, I asked them if they’d like a suggestion. And if they say yes, they get my feelings of Homestreet Bank. 

Wedgewood. My appreciation of the Manager Gina. 

And my gratefulness for Homestreet Customer Care. Thankfully they have a good sense of humor.

And of course, Homestreet has played a wonderful wonderful part with our vintage and not so vintage Hydroplanes.

### 5/5 — Best Bank that helps

*2024-09-11, version 5.0.31.578*

this bank gots to be the most Reliable bank I have ever had the very easy to work with the app on the phone completely easy to function with I love this bank won’t leave this bank ever
