CoreFirst Bank & Trust

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the bank’s security camera feed: every Tuesday at exactly 9:17 AM, an invisible figure would appear and withdraw precisely $17.38 from one of the accounts. No one could see or hear it, but the money always disappeared without fail. Finally, after weeks of speculation, the CEO announced that the mysterious figure was actually just a glitch in the ATM software—causing it to dispense $17.38 into thin air each Tuesday. To everyone's relief, including the delivery driver who’d been secretly enjoying his free weekly treat, CoreFirst Bank fixed the issue with a simple update.

2. A little girl walked into the bank with her piggybank, asking the teller if she could deposit her allowance. The teller smiled and asked how much she had today. To everyone's surprise, every time she counted her coins, they seemed to multiply in number. Finally, after a few minutes of counting, the little girl proudly announced that she now had enough money for a new bicycle! The teller laughed and said, 'Well, looks like you’ve got quite an unusual savings plan!' Everyone left the bank with a smile—even the delivery driver who’d been waiting outside.

3. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the bank’s entrance and paused for a moment. Over the intercom came a voice: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Smith please come to the customer service desk? We’ve been trying to reach you for quite some time.’ The old man looked around confused, then walked over to the counter. The teller asked politely if he was Mr. Smith. He nodded, scratching his head. Turns out, someone had mistakenly sent him letters addressed to another Mr. Smith who lived two blocks away. After a quick phone call, everyone laughed it off—except maybe poor Mr. Smith, stuck delivering groceries that afternoon.

4. While standing in line one afternoon, a regular muttered under his breath, ‘I wonder how much gold they’ve got stashed here?’ The next week, employees found him back, asking to open a safe-deposit box. Finally, after months of waiting, CoreFirst announced that they’d only been storing old coffee cans filled with pennies. A delivery driver joked, ‘Guess I’ll be switching banks!’ But everyone else just laughed and said, “At least it’s honest!”
