For my basic banking. I have been with Compass since I was 15 years old, now 23 and ZERO complaints. Plus no ATM fees is very nice!

I think im gonna give Schwab a try, but i can see myself switching in a couple of months.

Schwab offers good everything, its just hard to open an account if you dont know every single thing about yourself so I had to fax something in for proof of identity.

So we will see how the economy goes, and see if this is permanent or not..

What kind of service are you looking for? What type of accts do you want to open? All banks have their ups and downs depending on what you're looking for.

Wells Fargo/ING Direct/Credit Union here. Its really not that hard managing all of them, especially if you use a program to help keep track of everything.

People talk a lot of **** about Bank of America, but I have been with them since 1996 and have had ZERO problems! And there is nothing greater than using your bank card one minute and being able to see the charge online the next minute. This is the kinda **** I need to controls my wife's spending. Plus, the convieneince of ATM all over the place. I love them. Tried Chase for 3 months for my busines account and they sucked sweaty *****!

B of A FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!
