I also use Middlesex Saving Bank and have for years. They are small and
personable and I love it.

bank which doesn't lend to fossil fuel projects, I think it mostly lends for
residential mortgages.

Hello Steve-
For what it's worth, I have been a customer of the Middlesex Savings Bank (nee
"Middlesex Institution for Savings") for over sixty years. Likely that's more
akin to an indication of inertia, but when I've needed their services they have
done well. I also have maintained a Safe Deposit Box with them for all these
years... at their Main Street building, Concord Village.

Many of us have been notified of the BofA’s plans to leave Lincoln.
For some of us, it’s good riddance! Terrible hours, horrible customer service
(I was on hold for 40 minutes today waiting to ask a simple question of the
BofA’s national customer service team), interest rates on deposits that sucked,
and fees charged to customers that “blew” (the opposite of sucked when money
flows in the opposite direction!).
Obviously, the Rural Land Foundation will be working hard to find a new bank, a
better bank—one that is not just “here,” but one that is here for its customers.
Right now, there is one thing that all current customers of the Lincoln BofA
branch can do to help the RLF attract a top-notch replacement: We can continue
to rely on Lincoln’s BofA branch for safe deposit box services. Think of that
not as maintaining a relationship with the BofA, but rather a relationship with
the Lincoln Mall and the replacement bank that the RLF secures.
In evaluating the desirability of establishing a new branch in Lincoln, the
existence of our large safe deposit box base will be an important inducement to
open a branch here because it means not building a customer base from scratch.
For Lincolnites, maintaining a safe deposit box in Lincoln will be an
inducement to keep the rest of our banking business in Lincoln, and that will
help our new bank to succeed here.
Regards,
Steve Low
