Danvers Sticks With People's United Because It's "More Interactive"
While People's United was the successful bidder on a short term loan investment in Danvers, the town of Hamilton has recently moved its accounts from Danversbank to Salem Five, in part, because of the merger.
The newly owned Danversbank, now People's United, was the recent successful low bidder on a short term loan from the town of Danvers. According to Town Manager Wayne Marquis, the town's relationship with the bank is "more interactive," than it was previously with Danversbank. The short term loan of $251,000 was borrowed for one year at a .99 percent interest rate.

Talk Around Town
Bank Merger Leaves Loyals Feeling Slighted
This week's Talk Around Town asked people on the street, "What are your thoughts on the merger of Danversbank and People's United?"
The proposed merger of People's United and Danversbank was approved by the Office of the Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks and the Massachusetts Board of Bank Incorporation on Tuesday -- and the transaction was expected to be finalized at some time yesterday. This week's Talk Around Town focused on the recent news, asking folks in the square, "What are your thoughts on the recent merger?" For Alcide Cormier, the situation hits home. His daughter, a Danversbank employee for 26 years, is going to be laid off in October. "She is going to get a week's pay for every year that she worked there," he said. "While the CEO is getting $17 million." Check out the video for more opinions, and weigh in your thoughts in the Comments section.

Seems to me all those millions came from the pockets of hard working citizens. The banks have so many extra charges now and offer extremely low interest. They cry poor but make enough to dish out millions like this? Something is terribly wrong with the system. more ›
