Related: there's really something to that bank locally campaign. Everyone should at least consider it, I think. The big banks are NOT looking out for you. In fact, they're trying to hit you with as many fees as they can.
- jrockway 17y agoThere was a lot of backlash over the fees, and the big banks are starting to scale those back. But admittedly, I would never bank at a big bank, as I would rather have no fees at all.
- philwelch 17y agoThe problem with local banks is, as much as I believe that "too big to fail" is too big to continue existing, a bank that's too big to fail is also a safer place to put your money. (I know about FDIC, but I would also rather not deal with the inconvenience.) There's also the fact that Bank of Whitman only exists in Whitman County, so if I move or travel it's less convenient. ING has nearly no fees at all.
