Looking for a bank other than WaMu ... any recommendations?

I%26#039;m fed up with WaMu ... for obvious reasons and want to put my money in a credit union or smaller bank. Any thoughts on which one is best in terms of not too many fees and a good Web site for doing transactions online? thanks!



I use BECU. It doesn%26#039;t have many fees and has a nice website.




You are headed in the right direction, so go to your local credit union web site or a regional bank in your area and check them out too. The smaller the bank the better the service usually is, so check them out with the BBB and then go to the bank or credit union and talk to them and ask all the questions you want answers answered. Also ask for their financial statement.


Do not go with Bank of America if you are looking for a credit card. They changed my rate of interest from 17% to 34% because I made an error in a payment and then the lowered my credit line, so I ended up paying $39 for a late fee and another $39 for being over the limit for a total of $78 every month with out anything being applied to what I owed. I finally stopped paying them and went into bankruptcy.

I use wells fargo with no problems, I actually like banking with them, and they have easy to use online bill pay , and it is free. I do not get charged any fees for banking with them, and I only have a standard checking account and savings account.




Over the summer, I went to Wachovia. I really like them; nice, their website is easy to use, I feel safe with them.





Plus, if you are recommended by someone, they get $25, and so do you!
