It's nice to have a local community bank that takes the time to understand each individuals person or company's needs. The staff is outstanding and makes you feel like a valuable customer to them. I'm glad to have found such a niche bank.

Great bank, great people and straight forward people. CNB Bank helped my business needs. Whenever I walk in the Bank I got a feeling that I am coming back home. Keep up at good work guys.

It is such a pleasure to walk into a bank that I truly feel is part of the community, where all the employees greet you by your first name and go out of their way to make your visit a success.
I have worked with Andy and Dan for many years and am so happy they were able to open this bank in Oak Forest. Thanks to them and all their employees, keep up the good work.

If your looking for a bank that can provide you with excellent financial services and really cares about your business and/or personal needs then CNB is truly the bank for you. The professional services combined with the professional and courteous staff - outstanding!

*****

CNB is the best bank that I have ever banked at in my 25 years in business. Locally run by Andy and Dan, you get personal service all the time, yet it offers all of the servcies and products one would only expect at a larger bank.

*****

I had two commercial loans and both closings were on time without a problem. All the employees are knowledgeable and professional as well as helpful.
I was very happy.
Way to go guys !!!

The people at CNB BANK provide great customer service and are very professional. The financial advice they have provided for my small business has increased profit and helped my company to operate more efficiently. They are availble at a moments notice to provide answers to all my financial questions

We had a land closing that was quick and all documentation was in order. Thank you for the precise review. We will continue to do business with CNB Bank and Trust.

CNB has taken us back to banking as it should have always been, friendly, personal, and a place where everybody knows your name. Andy, Dan, and their terrific staff treat me as a valued customer, which you can't find at the too big to fail banks, where your just another number in their system. I would recommend CNB to anyone searching for personal or business banking.

Too bad, this is really a 6-star bank but can only show five stars.
Here's the straight skinney. Read the other reviews. Most talk moreso about the people - and why it works for them. A company develops a culture that is fostered from the leaders - and the team of people they have to carry the load. Our insurance agency has worked with the bank from the inception of the Oak Forest branch - but has worked with several team members long before. When you have a good thing going, there is little compelling reason to change away. We not only use the bank online programs to manage resources, we connect with staff in a quick and efficient manner. Always pleasant, helpful, and interactive. As the VP/Treasurer of my firm that works every day on bank and money movement - I am VERY PLEASED.

The customer service is second to none. It's nice to bank at a place that cares about my business as much as I do. Thanks for all your hard work to get things done the way a caring bank does.

*****

We are so impressed by CNB BANK in Oak Forest. Their personal attention to their clients is impressive, and they are always willing to lend a helping hand. In this world of no name, no recognition customer service, it is comforting to know that Dan, Andy, Joe and the rest of the staff at CNB know who we are. They have certainly met our day to day banking needs, and have been a tremendous help in securing our business future. Thanks to all at CNB. We are glad we joined your family.

We operate a small family-owned business and use CNB in Oak Forest. We have been very pleased with everything this bank has to offer. We know everyone on a first-name basis, the customer service is excellent, and we have been so pleased with the service that we refinanced with this bank as well. Their online bill payment system is easy to navigate and all my banking is done without any hassle. Also, my kids love this bank because they always have free donuts! No doubt they will be banking there as well when the time comes! WGM SYSTEMS HEATING AND COMFORT COOLING

Unlike most banks where you are simply an account #, dealing with the staff at CNB is always a pleasant & human experience. Our agency staff is on a first name basis with Andy & his crew. Any problems that we have (which are very few and far between) are always dealt with promptly and courteously. Our agency has a rather complicated financial structure because of the many different program funding sources and the complex required accounting demands that we have to deal with. Having a truly supportive and helpful neighborhood bank has created a partnership that makes this process much easier than it used to be when we dealt with
other local banks. Thanks Andy, Courtney, Joe & all of the rest of the gang at CNB! Keep up the good work.

Nothing can compare to the service you receive from CNB Bank and the staff there! I honestly can say that they make my life easier to do my job on a daily basis. We love the friendly atmosphere and the fact that everyone knows your name. Not only do we have our business accounts with CNB, I also have switched to them for my personal accounts and have referred them to family members because of their exceptional service!

I have several accounts with CNB that I transferred from another bank that went quickly and with no trouble whatsoever. The Oak Forest Branch has demonstrated great customer service along with a personal touch that gives me confidence that they will look out for my best interests. I would, and have recommended CNB to anyone to bank there, A great bank to do business with.

I love this bank. They really want to help you here; whether it is for your business or your mortgage. They make it easy. The people are pleasant and very fair. No nickling or diming here. I have recommended CNB to many people and will continue to do so with no hesitation. Thanks CNB.

I use CNB for both my personal and business accounts and I find CNB a first rate organization that provides all the necessary services I feel a bank should provide and more. In addition, having a great staff at the bank to address my personal and business needs moves them far above the competition. I highly recommend CNB for your banking needs.

*****

CNB BANK IS EXCEPTIONAL!!!
Andy and the staff go above and beyond to provide their customers with financial piece of mind that you cannot find elsewhere. Whether you need a loan, an account, or financial insight on an investment or future project; they will work with you to help find the best resolution possible. They stay true to their principal "you're dealing with people you know and trust".
Thank you for all your help.

Like Brian W., I am impressed with CNB's service. They're prompt, friendly, and always have the answer at hand whenever I have a question. I highly recommend them.

*****

I have been very impressed with the service and expertise CNB has provided for me. It is nice to go to a local bank where people know your name. I was in need of a business loan and they are the only bank who took the time to talk me through the entire process. If you like great service and talking to the same people each time you call, then CNB is for you.

*****

Andy, Dan and the entire staff are absolutely top-notch, and, always accessible. It's extremely comforting to know that I can literally walk into the bank unannounced and have my issues resolved quickly and professionally. I would recommend CNB for business or personal banking - they are truly an extension of our organization.

We have been banking with CNB Bank since inception. CNB has always been friendly and helpful, and willing to go the extra mile to keep us satisfied. For business or personal banking, I highly recommend CNB Bank. You will not be disappointed.

Our insurance agency has been banking with CNB Oak Forest since they opened their doors. They completely automated our deposit process which made our funds available to us almost immediately. Their level of personal service to our needs has not been matched by any other business we deal with. Robert Werner, Principal, ISU - The Machon Agency, Park Ridge, IL.

In my former career, my specialty was teaching and monitoring excellent customer service. While my bar for service excellence is high, CNB never fails to reach it. I run a small business while also taking care of three small children. When I need a banking answer, I usually need it quickly and I need the help/answer to be thorough. Each time I contact CNB, I receive both timely & professional responses. I am so happy that we made the decision to change all of our banking to CNB.

*****

I have been banking with CNB for the last couple of years. Doing business with them is easy, and everyone who works at the bank are always nice and jump anytime I walk in to see how they can help me. Great customer service. Very Happy!

*****

I only wish there were more stars to give to Andy and his staff !!!!!!!!!!! Every time I walk into the bank I am greeted with very friendly not to mention professional staff. I have been with CNB since it opened in Oak Forrest have many accounts with the bank. I look forward to many more years working with Andy Tinberg and his staff.. Thanks for being there for me..Vincent POPS ITALIAN BEEF..

*****

We have had a healthy banking relationship with Andy Tinberg and his team for over 2 decades now largely due to their breadth and depth of expertise in hotel lending, coupled with their ability to commit to a project and understand the long term value of building relations and offering custom loan underwriting solutions. Look forward to the next customer appreciation day. Keep up the positive community impact.

*****

Great experience working with Andy & his staff from the first day we met with them. Easy to work with & always extremely prompt in responding to our needs. CNB should be your first choice in banking.

*****

CNB bank and trust is terrific at its job. It knows what the customer needs and gives them advice on any questions they may have. They have a very friendly staff who are great at helping to promote businesses and their needs.

Best Bank around.Easy to work with.
Friendly,helpful staff.I can prouldly says CNB is my bank.

*****

I set up a business checking account when CNB first opened several years ago. I had 'had it' with Chase bank and was looking for a bank that actually cared that I had an account at their bank. CNB was a great choice with employees that were friendly, professional and efficient (not the case at Chase Bank) and bank officers who would give a wave as you walked by their office or professional advice when asked
Dr. Tom Halwax, D.C., Oak Forest.

My restaurant was in need of a loan, and Chase bank wouldn't touch me with a 10 foot pole, even though I had banked with them for 10 years. I went to Andy at CNB and he was able to get my business a 7year loan. All we had to do was bank with them, which I was more than happy to do. Back at Chase I was consistently charged about $25 a month in fees, even being charged to get change for my cash register! I've been with CNB for over 2 years, and haven't been charged ONE CENT in miscellaneous fees. The staff is kind and remembers your face, if not your name, and there is always coffee and donuts for customers. This is the way banking should be. Big banks have, and have taken enough... Support your local businesses! -Lisa, Marcotte's Bar & Grill

*****

I have been in business for many years and understand the importance of a good bank. This bank is the definition of that importance! Everyone that I have worked with there could not be more helpful or resourceful. They provide by far the best customer service in a time when it is all but gone! Thank You for all your help Vince, Modern CarriageWerks Inc. Bidgeview Il

Back to how banking should be! CNB epitomizes Customer Service! We have "outgrown" many banks looking for what CNB delivers. Glad we found you! :) Thank you!

I went there to open a savings account. I wasn't real thrilled with the service I was getting at my other banks. Unfortunately CNB does not let you open a savings account unless you have a checking account there too. I told them that I already had a checking account, and that if I liked their service I would think about changing my checking account to CNB.

That's like Jewel not selling me bread unless I buy my milk there. A terrible short sighted policy that has no place in the banking industry.

CNB Bank responded:

Ok Oak Forest and surrounding communities...you need to bank somewhere and the early results of the Reader's Choice Award for best local bank have CNB by a landslide. I stopped in for myself and agree with the 55 voters. I was treated like a queen from the minute I walked in the door. Helped myself to coffee and free donuts and then found out this community bank can take care of all of my needs including a HELOC loan, investment advice, checking, savings, college plan, etc. I've been banking at Charter One for years and they still don't know my name and I wait in line for up to 20 minutes for anything I need. I'm switching.
