Merrill Investment & Retirement Financial Center - Fremont (CA)

SK We wanted a financial advisor who would put our interests first and went with Sridhar as he came highly recommended by a family friend. He is very knowledgable and started off with discussing our financial situation and goals with us to create a personalized plan for us. Setting up meetings with him is very easy and we discuss any topics we have on our agenda for that meeting. We have had a wonderful experience working with Sridhar and we highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a financial advisor who would act in their best interests.

Yvonne Yu "I would refer Mastemind College Funding services to anyone who has a college-bound student! They educated me on how the financial-aid system really works and helped lower my Family Contribution by over $7,500 a year! I don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t meet them." -Susan W., Cupertino

Pooja Tripathi I had a fantastic experience working with NC Financial Solutions LLC. The team was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive to my financial needs. They provided clear guidance and tailored solutions that significantly helped our organization. Surbhi’s professionalism and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend NC financial Solutions to anyone looking for trustworthy and effective financial services.

T P Sarathy Amazingly good SBI California branch here in the Fremont location. I got some very key attestations for opening a NRO account done in a super efficient, courteous, professional and friendly manner. They offer Domestic accounts here as well, like any other bank in the US. I’ve opened an account myself, and look forward to using it for my future financial needs, and also encourage people to please check it out and see for yourselves. Thank you!

Danny Thanks to Jolina. She was incredibly patient, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer all my questions. Her professionalism and attention to detail made the process seamless, and her friendly demeanor made me feel valued as a customer. Highly recommend working with her

Cary Jiang UPDATE: AVOID THIS "BANK" AT ALL COSTS. They keep your money in transfer for days to get free interests, in complete disregard for the inconvenience and financial damages it may cause you or the recipient, I submitted an international wire transfer. Called to confirm all the details. However the transfer has not gone through after more than a week despite their app saying "completed". The branch says they are unable to check the status so Ill have to call their customer service. Customer service says its still in "clearing" - havent even left the US yet. They have no set date for the completion. I ask to cancel the transfer. They agreed but then told me that it will take at least two days for them to review the cancellation request - and the reversal may or may not succeed!! According to them, I may also receive less than the original amount because of currency rate fluctuations, so they are essentially charging me the bid-ask spread for money they sat on for days. I am filing a complaint to CFPB and OCC. -- The branch and relationship manager is fine. HOWEVER for a simple transaction - be prepared to spend hours on the phone talking to their customer service center in India and their broken phone app.
