It is a conventional brick-and-mortar bank with in-person service, in addition to its online and mobile apps. We ranked MidCountry Bank at a 3.2 out of 5 stars, which means it is a satisfactory bank that does not stack up to some of the other banks.

MidCountry Bank's online and mobile banking platforms receive reasonably high marks from users: out of 97 customer reviews across iOS and Android platforms, the MidCountry Bank mobile app has an overall rating of 4.0 out of 5 (compared to the national average of 3.8). You can access MidCountry Bank's mobile app to manage your accounts by reviewing account balances, sending and receiving money as well as accessing support representatives. However, MidCountry Bank receives a fair consumer satisfaction rating because of a large number of complaints brought to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a government agency that protects consumers in the financial sector. 

Products Offered

MidCountry Bank has several deposit products including savings accounts, checking accounts and CDs, giving you many options to manage your money. MidCountry Bank does not have the best savings rate, which means you should think about looking elsewhere for banks that offer more return for your money. CDs can be a terrific option to achieve higher returns, but there are limitations to accessing your money. MidCountry Bank's CD rates are fairly competitive compared to the national average.

Rates

Its CDs feature a rate of 0.10% and 0.30% for the one-year and five-year term lengths, respectively, while its highest-yielding money market account has an APY of 2.53%. Given its noncompetitive savings rate, you should consider choosing another bank to earn more on your deposits.
