Re: I need some recommendations on a national chain bank
There any other credit unions with more local presence you could join? That would be my first effort... ymmv

That's a pretty good idea, unless you want to be able to bank in Texas and Idaho.blackeagle603 wrote:There any other credit unions with more local presence you could join? That would be my first effort... ymmv
Is that a requirement?

It would be handy, especially if we wind up moving to *fingers crossed* Billings, MT next year.

My credit union is part of the co-op thing. So I can go to something like 5000 locations all over the country. Never actually tried it so I don't know how well it works in practice.

My Chase account dates back to when they were Washington Mutual, so, YMMV.JAG2955 wrote:
Nice. I was actually looking at Chase due to their prevalence around here. And if a bank said anything about "fees", I would laugh and walk out. Guess I've been spoiled by the nice folks at NFCU.
I've had my credit card number stolen a couple of times, and within a couple of days, I had a new one. I haven't had any issues when I disputed a charge, either. The checking account is a checking account.
The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.

I never really liked NFCU. I use USAA for most stuff and then whatever local account where I am living. NFCU was my deployment account but I've been out for a while and haven't used them in a bit.

Been with Wells for going on 6 years now. I got an account there when my wife started working there. That said, service has always been good, there's a Wells everywhere, and they've been proactive about security. I still have an account with my local CU, simply because their auto loan rates are dramatically lower, but the rest of my banking goes through the stagecoach.
