FrankWheeler Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 More good news from Wells Fargo How anybody could still think that all of these banks have the consumers best interest in mind and regulations should continue to be eased is crazy. 2 Link to comment

For the life of me, I can not figure out how Wells Fargo is still in business. They have to have lost a ton of business over this. 1 Link to comment

These people seemed displeased with Wells Fargo for years but the constant scandals in the news was the breaking point. Shameless plug, but everyone should join a credit union. Bank where you're an owner and come first, rather than the stock price. 2 Link to comment

We have pulled all accounts out of Wells Fargo. I have been looked down the nose of bankers so many times and scrutinized when asking for loans or help with something....to hell if I'm going to put up with a crooked bank. 1 Link to comment

I'm with @mrandyk, check into a credit union. Just took the GF to sign up for the one I just joined recently myself. I've been listening to Clark Howard's money podcast a lot lately & he's really into credit unions for their superior customer service & better rates/availability of loans should you need one. From the couple I have done business with, couldn't recommend them highly enough over big banks. Link to comment

I'm talking about business accounts where we need certain services that only a larger bank typically offers. Edited January 18, 2018 by BigRedBuster Link to comment

Hmmm. That's tough. I have zero familiarity with managing a business & all the financial needs that come with it. I just know I don't trust or like the bigger banks. I've been listening to a lot of Clark Howard recently for financial stuff, & a cursory skimming of his website produced a couple stories on alternative options for small businesses like online banking or P2P lenders online for loans. Obviously I don't know the size of your operation, but maybe some of that stuff is at least interesting to skim through for you. More options can't hurt, right? Let me know what you end up doing.
