Yesterday, I went into Bank of America, and closed my accounts, one of which I had held for 29 years.
Why? Fees, fees, and more fees, plus low interest and asinine policies. They got a bailout, I just bailed.
I now have a credit union account, with online access and bill pay. I will save nearly $20 a month.
When I get a new job, my credit card will get moved to the credit union too, since Chase is being abusive to people. Even the highest credit union interest rate is 5% below Chase.
All I needed to qualify for my credit union account was to live in San Jose, CA.
If you are sick and tired of your bank treating you like an ATM to be squeezed when they can't avoid playing with high risk derivatives and junk paper, check out your local credit union.
They actually define "fiscal conservatism" better than any megabank mogul ever could.
