I wanted to know if anybody here has had any experience in Tukwilla BECU? Also, what should I do? I know their security dept and superiors allow open carry.
I opened an account a few months ago with a check from my bank (Navy Federal) for a substantial sum because my bank is so far away. Anyway, after waiting in their very long line twice to get to a cashier, I was checked in and asked to wait to open an account at one of the desks. I waited and had a couple cups of coffee. I was then greeted and brought to a representative. She got up a few times to talk to managers, but I thought nothing of it. We talked for quite a while joking and trading stories of living in different states all over. It was a great experience I thought. After we finished, I got up and was approached by two managers while she exclaimed I couldn't have "that" in here. The managers told me I needed to leave and security had already been called. :shock: This was after I had been there for over two and half hours! They waited to get all my information and open an account before they aproached me! :banghead: This did not sit well with me AT ALL. I informed them of legality of open carry and told them I researched thier corporate policy which allowed firearms while giving them an open carry pamphlet. They told me I still needed to leave and security was on their way. I told them I would when I finished my business and would talk to security if they came. I continued to stay only to wait in line for the ATM. No security came.
I have done nothing with this account and have considered closing it, but am torn because I know of several others who carry in their other branches. If i go back in, can I be tresspassed? I was never told I will be. It angers me to think they sat and waited to get all my information before trying to force me to leave.
