Anyone use Wachovia? - Financial Management

His Goober · 06-29-2009, 12:31 PM

Just wanting others thoughts on the bank. I switched about 6 months ago and am not too happy with it.

I do. I have sense I was 18 and have never had any problems.

they suck...usaa is the best!

They're okay. I've never had any big problems, and will likely always keep an account open with them. Their customer service seems to be hit or miss, but luckily I don't often need to call about anything, so it doesn't affect me too much.

I've never used anything but wachovia, and have never had any problems with them.

I have them too. Not any real problems I don't like how they credit their checks next day if you deposit after 2 in branch after 4 through ATM but I am pretty used to it by now... I still think USAA is better though

The boo uses Wachovia and Navy Federal but he prefers Navy Fed. over Wachovia. They have alot of fees!

i hate banks in general ( i only like USAA) normally I prefer credit unions. banks usually have a lot of fees.

I recently switched to Wachovia, too, and they ****ed me over. Probably because Wells Fargo bought out Wachovia and Wells Fargo was always screwing me over too. Fail.

The only bank I've never had a problem with was Navy Fed, BoA (but I rarely used it and then closed my account) and Armed Forces Bank.

I strongly recommend going to a local credit union. Credit unions are always more secure, friendly, and helpful than national banks. There's one in my area called Metro 1 and I've never ever had a problem with them. The only sucky thing about Credit Unions is they don't always have ATMs everywhere, but some of them waive ATM fees.

Thanks everyone. I'm somewhat happy with it and there is one near my house. So I think I'll stay with it or switch to USAA.
