Our certificate of deposit was going to renew when we were out of town. I made arrangements with Mitzi Macias Barahona at the Cornell branch. She had reached out in the past when she noticed we weren't getting the benefit of our Premier membership. Mitzi set the renewal up with a new term and made the process stress free. She is a welcome smile and amazing employee for First Tech. Thank you so very much Mitzi

Very happy with service
I was very appreciative of Emilee Gutierrez' knowledge, and the one thing she wasn't sure of she made the necessary contacts to find the answer. She took the time to make sure I understood everything. I also appreciated that she returned calls as promised - very rare these days!

Hong Vo is a Great Premier Representative
I’ve been a 1st Tech member since 1986, and a Premier member for about 20 years. Hong Vo has been my Premier Representative for several years. He is great at helping with complex issues that tellers struggle with. He is a great asset to 1st Tech!

Excellent Service Offered from First Tech. I have been with First Tech since 2015 and they have always been customer focused. Their Premier service experience over the past couple of years has been amazing. Recently I worked with Ranu Lamba, their Premier Financial Representative, to deal with a couple of CDs renewals. She handled the complexities very well, helped me with options, and set up multiple accounts without the need to fill out multiple forms. I highly recommend Ranu for her knowledge and service.

Marco Semiz helped me set up a New Cd
Marco Semiz helped me set up a New Cd . I had an existing CD that was Matured and I was unable to understand what I needed to do to change it to a different CD. The 1st Tech website is very difficult for me to use > I am really grateful for Marco's help. I wish the Star Rating went higher so I am giving him a 10-Star
Rating in this review. Grateful & Much Appreciated
