I used BofA for years and was fairly happy...until their mortgage people screwed up royally on our house deal. So I bailed and went with Wells Fargo (where we have our mortgage & student loans). WF isn't bad service or convenience wise, but their fees are getting pretty crazy - they nickel and dime for online bill pay and stuff like that. Supposedly it helps if you keep at least $10K parked in your checking account at all times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif)
I have stayed away from Washington Mutual because they are extremely unpopular in our area due to their agressive pro-development stance and sprawling land holdings: they are the principle owner of the controversial "Ahmanson Ranch" project among others. But, I have never heard anything bad about them as a bank or lender. |
