Re: WAMU

My husband banks there and has a CC w them. I am having him take out his savings and put into my bank for now. He is not closing his cking acct just yet and who knows what will happen w the CC. But having the CC doesn't work against us, meaning if there is a balance they will want to get it paid, so they will have another bank take it over.

I have their cc and I didn't hear of them closing. If they are it will probably just be a take over.

08er Crashing...I heard about the possibility of WAMU closing on Kudlow & CO. this past week....because they've been in a decline and just changed leadership. There are some interesting articles in wsj.com over the past week for those of you who bank with WAMU.

This is today's article.

If it it sold, do you know what happens to the accts or the credit card accounts?

They will most likely get switched to the bank that buys them

Re: WAMU

so if it becomes another bank, and our direct deposits are set up there, everythings fine -- money isn't going anywhere, its just another banks name, right?
I have my direct deposit set up there!
DH and I just opened a joint account at commerce, but we both still have our personal ones until we figure out what to do.

Re: WAMU

crap I have a online cd with them that doesn't mature until 6 more months. Just probably will have a take over I am sure, i remember it use to be something else then wamu took over. I will probably change everything over to another bank. Sad I really did like wamu.

I bank there but I haven't heard anything yet. I hope they don't but if they do I'll transfer my money to husband's bank at HSBC.

I have like no money in my account there maybe like 500 bucks. Just sitting there. I should pull it out and close my accounts. Bethpage federal is an amazing bank! LOVE them.
