i think like my self didn't really know what in the world was and is going on with all of this..Maybe this will help shed some light on the post a bit...good info..get it before it closed if it does..

I will be withdrawing cash, and will be sending it (in gift cards) for Christmas for my kids tomorrow... Does that mean I am indirectly supporting this stupidity?

YES!!!! YOU ARE ONE OF US NOW!! One of us, FF... one of us!!! We accept you!

( perhaps I should go back to staying in chat, eh?)

I have a small town bank. If I HAD had a large bank (one of those in the 2008 TARP bank bailout) then I would have switched at that time and not waited until now.

Seems the news is even on small town TV stations now. Word is going from the net to the news. I guess the local news got tired of always being the last to know.

Okay, you convinced me, I'll wait until Monday.

Dammit! I always wanted to sing that gooble gobble song and drink out of a communal goblet with ATS freaks! Party pooper.

I'm with a regular local bank. They are great with customer service and such. No fee's. Yet, I realize that the credit unions do in fact pay a larger percentage on savings.

I'm not disgruntled at all. My bank though, does not pay a scant cent on my deposits. I'm moving to a credit union only because of interest.

My BoA accounts were shut down five years ago. They have the best online banking....hands down. They just charged way too much. Yes, I did have the occasional overdraft. But thirty five dollar overdraft fee's was outrageous. Especially when it was exponential on a five dollar whoopsie. Then it turned over to one hundred and fifty dollars on a five dollar overdraft!

Not a great way to do business. I'm definitely going credit union.

The day of reckoning has come. Let us see what happens today.

I don't get it, Are we just to move money out of "big" banks into smaller ones? Wont that just make the small banks big? Should we stuff our mattresses, or get commodities instead.

So how many have closed their accounts from the big banks now?
