History of Webster Bank

Webster Bank started off as First Federal Savings of Waterbury which was founded by Harold Webster Smith in 1935. By 1938, the bank’s assets had gone past the $1 million mark.

Decades later in 1986, the bank changed to a stock ownership format and also formed a holding company. The following year, Harold Webster Smith was succeeded by his son, James C. Smith as the CEO.

In 1997, the bank added Webster Trust Company and investment services to its products and services. One year later, the bank acquired Eagle Bank of Bristol. This meant that the bank’s branches in the state exceeded 100 for the first time. In the same year, the bank purchased Damman Insurance, becoming the first bank in Connecticut to buy an insurance agency.

In 2002, the company was finally listed in the NYSE, trading under the symbol WBS. One year later, the bank reached an agreement to acquire FirstFed America Bancorp, Inc. When the deal was completed the following year, it meant that Webster Bank’s retail services were available outside Connecticut for the first time ever as they entered markets in Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts.

When Webster acquired HAS Bank in 2005, it became the country’s number one bank administrator and trustee of health savings accounts. In 2006, NewMil Bank was acquired. Ten years later, the bank added 17 Citibank branches in Boston and a number of ATMs to its network.

    ATM Stole My Money

    I have deposited cash into a ATM machine in Winsted Ct, on October 1st at 11:35 am to come across a problem with receiving my cash back and funds not going into my bank account. I called the bank and they said I needed to dispute it so I did, I also went to the bank were it happen the customer service agent there was were rude, she gave me a number to call because she said the ATM is not there’s but it’s n there property, so am confused? I’ve been shifted around to over 10 different and no one can answer me on what’s going on with my money, to having to do a dispute today on the 6th because one was never done this is beyond me. I’ve been a customer for 8 years and never been treated so unfairly in my life I will no longer be a customer a Webster Bank and anyone I know I will have them go else where so these problems want happen to them. A credit should have been done in opinion

    Wethersfield, CT branch, in my opinion, has ill informed and non responsive employees. I have closed our business accounts because of their attitude and incompetency.
