- beardyw 2y agoThe major banks work together to keep some basic services available locally. You can get cash (once used to buy stuff) at any outlet. Otherwise everything else is available online. And I'm in my 70s so the "old people" thing is starting to wear thin.

Too bad they're closing both in a lot of places, but at least their online services are the best of any traditional bank.
