Mount Prospect State Bank

I have been so pleased with our experience at this bank! There is a friendly and welcoming feeling you get with banking at a community bank over a mega bank chain, and this location does not disappoint! The staff have been working together for a long time, and you can sense a genuine warmth in their customer service, as well as a strong sense of teamwork. They have really helped and guided me with all of the different types of savings options they provide, and even follow up to make sure all is well. They are great with my kids too, and have a kids savings club and treasure chest the kids can pick a toy from when they come in to check on their account. Cookies and coffee, a coin counter, and user-​friendly online banking are just a small sampling of the many positives of this bank. It is so refreshing to go to a bank that has the warm community feeling that is too absent in the large international banks that populate the landscape today. I highly recommend them!

Glenview State Bank recieved a facelift and relocation.
Mount Prospect State Bank, a branch of Glenview State Bank, is now located across the street from the Mt. Prospect Post Office. A brand new and clean branch, with accommodatingly friendly staff. A couple of drives ups, one with an ATM, makes driving through for a transaction convenient. Even when choosing to go inside for more than a deposit or withdrawal, it has never been crowded and I am taken care of in a timely manner. I believe after closing the Arlington Heights location, there are now 5 or 6 other branches.
For a traveler, like myself, the only disadvantage to banking with a independent and local bank is that there are no branches of Glenview State Bank outside of the state. I have a second account with another large name bank so that withdrawing and depositing money while out of town is easy. For all other banking needs, I choose Glenview State Bank.

My husband and I have moved to Florida and still keep our money with MPSB and I’ll tell you why. When my mother was diagnosed with a terminal illness, the wonderful staff here lessened our stress by putting everything in place for me to carry on with her business of paying bills. They also helped with the transition when I became executor of her estate after she passed. We ran into many barriers due to some unusual issues with her trust and they went above and beyond to help us work through it. They were more like friends or family than a local bank. This is not how things would have happened had we used one of the big name banks in town. But I’d like to tell you what happened over Labor Day weekend with our bank. A very good friend of ours who lives in town needed money to get his insulin to manage his diabetes. Medicare had made a mistake and he was told he wasn’t going to have any insulin til after the 3^rd of Sept! If I were to send him a check he wouldn’t receive it for days. I called the bank, and since it is such a family oriented business, I explained my situation and they had money waiting for him within 5 minutes of my phone call! They literally saved his life! My husband and miss Mt Prospect for these kind of reasons! I doubt we’ll ever find a bank like this in Florida, so we will continue to bank with MPSB even though we are far away. It’s still as if we were right around the corner! Thank you sooo much for being there for us even when we live in Florida! You are the best and friendliest bank, I’m so glad my mother had such faith in you! She was right, as usual!
