Current Events > what bank do you use and why?

(+) Yeah! (+)

used to use a local credit union but now I use chase, because they are always ATMs readily available and not that many fees. Never had a problem with them. One time I lost my wallet and someone stole my credit card and made a bunch of purchases. without me even noticing, Chase automatically recognized the charges as fraud and refunded all the payments. I always liked that, especially because it was 100% my fault.

Chase, so I can partake in society

---

Navy Federal Credit Union. Because fuck wells fargo.

---

I primarily switched to Ally because they offered the best interest rates of things I could sign up for online at the time I was signing up.

---

Navy Federal because when I was going through boot camp they were like "You can sign up for this Armed Forces Bank or Navy Federal" and I was like "lol I'm in the Navy so Navy Federal". It actually turned out to be a decent choice though I think, have no real complaints.

---

Local credit union to hold my money because theres no fees and the interest rates were better

Navy Federal Credit Union for my mortgage and auto loan

Chase for credit cards. I put every purchase on my Chase card for the cash back and just pay the full balance from my credit union each month

A lot of military people in this thread

Nice datamining

---

A local bank. Because its close to my house.

---

I have 3 different bank accounts.

Bank of America - Checking
Capital One - Savings
Amplify - Local credit union I've had forever

---

I have Discover because theyre debit cards have cash back.

I also have an account withCharles Schwab because they reimburse out of network Atms effectively making international travel and need of Atms a non-issue. No fees too.

Why three different ones? When I had a savings account, I had it with Chase. But I canceled my savings account and just transferred the funds over to my checking account, because savings accounts are absolutely pointless
---

Savings and checking with SunTrust, credit with Capital One.

---

a regional one

Statewide credit union.

Great rates. Good customer service. Nice little benefits.

---

me and my fiancee both have bank of america so we have a brick and mortar bank we can go to for things like cashiers checks and stuff.

i have ally bank for our main checking and savings.

i have other accounts i dont really use, like a small local bank my parents opened for me when i was a kid, a navy federal credit union account my dad helped me get if i ever need a car loan from them.

oh and i have a charles schwab checking account because its good for travel (they refund ALL fees, even foreign transaction fees)

You can open a Navy account if you have any family members who ever served, dont even have to be active duty. Got a 0% down no PMI mortgage that way.

yup. my dad got me in and he wasn't really even in the military. he was a civilian working at a navy university

---

BofA - because they have my IRA accounts, credit card, and good online/mobile platform imo

Regional Bank - because i used to work there

Its a good idea to keep some money at two banks just in case one fucks up in a bad way/locks something
---

Chase, but I've also got a cash account in fidelity.

---

USAA is my primary bank. Have car and renters insurance through them as well.

I also have a Chase account (Sapphire Preferred card) and an account with a local Credit Union in El Paso.

Only reason I chose to get a Chase card is because they had the most card fliers when i came back from deployment. in 8 months they sent like 21 fliers <_<

A local one
