Our experience with Alison at Barrington Bank was outstanding! Alison spent several hours with us over a couple of days helping us to open new accounts. She was competent, thorough, and extremely pleasant to work with. We are very happy to be at Barrington Bank and look forward to a long lasting relationship.

If you like banking in the dark ages this bank is for you. if you want to do an ACH be prepared to sign a document that is approximately 500 pages long, but they will get the information wrong so you'll need to redo it at least three times. luckily you can sign it via docusign which is their only redeeming quality. Then they have a 3-5 business day turn around time to add it, which is really actually 3-5 weeks. Then you have to do a training call to be able to use it. The training call won't even get completed because it turns out they hadn't done what they needed to do on their end. Then you are asked to provide a test file with no additional information. You finally get what you need (after being provided multiple illegible test files in a txt format), only to be told that what you provided won't work- despite providing exactly what they gave you! It's been over two months and I still can't send an ACH or wire. Oh and when they first opened the account I couldn't even do bill pay. Apparently that was another form they needed me to sign - cue another 5 Docusign's just to get that done. Why these things aren't all automatic is beyond me. Literally one of the worst banking experiences in my life.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Nicole Covic at Barrington Trust for Convoy Chicago, and the experience was exceptional.

Nicole was incredibly patient, attentive, and solutions-oriented throughout the process. She took the time to understand our business needs, answered every question thoroughly, and helped us navigate a few challenges with professionalism and ease. Her ability to make what can often feel like a complicated banking process both clear and efficient truly stood out.

It’s rare to encounter someone who combines such strong technical knowledge with genuine care for the client experience. We’re grateful for Nicole’s support and look forward to continuing our relationship with Barrington Trust.

Nicole is one of your many Rockstars at the Barrington Branch. Makes you feel welcome, not a number like many other big bank institutions. Why we love our local Bank.

Nicole helped me set up a checking account. She was super friendly very thorough and helpful with all of my concerns.
I loved banking with Palatine Bank and Trust and I believe I will love banking with Barrington Bank and Trust just as much.
Based on my experience, I would highly recommend either of these banks. Staff has always been warm and friendly.
