AND takeovers are nasty. I work at Capital One...and was there when they were North Fork....and worked through all the transitions....bad things tend to happen during merges....things that if I posted them I could lose my job Needless to say...right before conversion I closed my accounts at the bank I work for!
They will reissue soon ... Chase already has their logo up ... It ironic you know becuase in early Sept. Chase offered WaMu $8 per stock and they refused and now they got nothing in the deal - it was a sieze basically ...
Anyway, Chase is awesome and their customer serivce is great, in my experience and they really are everywhere ... so you wont be disappointed

I hear you- takeovers can be nasty. My sister worked for a big bank and they were merged and she lost her job. She was so upset. They made her sign a waiver that if she wanted to keep her job, she had to do telemarketing. She went from Select Banking to crap in one week. I remember how depressed she was- she came home crying. She ended up going on unemployment but that was def a tough time.

That is how I feel about Chase I know before they where not customer service oriented . But when Wamu and Commerce open they really focused on Retail banking and customer service. So they definately improved in that area. I just love that fact that I do not have to think twice about were there is a chase bank they are everywhere.

I agree, they weren't good before, but in the past 3-5 years they def improved their CS and they really help you out now, at least all the branches that I have ever been too ... but I used to work at a bank so maybe im more sympathetic because I used to put up with all the same cr*p as they do!

Me too I used to work for Astoria Federal for almost 6 years so I know about the importance of good customer service Dealing with customer is not always peachy!!
Just told FH and he wasnt happy. we're both going to citibank this weekend to switch everything (i have hsbc and apparently its non existant on the island)
All my wedding money is in my Wamu account - I'm really sad about Wamu leaving I've been their customer since the begining - even before they were on the east coast!
I'm pulling all my money out and putting into Bank of America today.... *sigh* I'm really upset about this

You can still leave it there!! Your money is safe. Just check into Bank of America Fee's beforehand.

I would do that as well ... FH has BOA and he hates it, he says their online banking is horrible and they have lots of hidden fees ... he is moving banks closer to the wedding
I used to work for Chase. When I was there customer service was a big deal. However, since Bank One took over the service has gone down the drain. Just yesterday I switched by direct deposit so that I can close my Chase employee account. My friends who still work there tell me how awful working there is now. It seems to me that all banks are horrible these days. Its just a matter of finding one that is less horrible.

i agree about the BOA fees, but i love their online banking. it's the best i've seen out there.
dealing w/ HSBC made me want to poke out my eyeballs.
