I'm interested to see what your experience is with them. I have an uncle that works for First Citizens and he always refers to them as "First Criminals"...but he won't elaborate. He's worked for them for years but banks with SECU.

My question is not what is wrong with any financial institution at this point in time, cause the truth is - who really knows? They don't even know what their own situations are w/ toxic assets, despite all this "stress testing" that is going on.
So I think in trying to determine what bank one would want to have an account with - the question would be - what is RIGHT w/ WF/Wachovia?
I would like to hear what they are doing to help consumers and extend credit, etc.

I can't speak for all divisions of Wach, however I have my checking accounts w/them. Positives are that there are branches everywhere and the tellers are very courteous...online is also easy to navigate IMO.
I just refi'd w/them at 4.75 fixed / 4.992 APR no points 30 yr......the loan officer is a good guy and they've gone out of their way to make sure everyting has gone smooth...also have prime eq line of credit w/them.....
They've treated me well. I can't complain. However some might've had a different experience...

Thank you, Jack. That was exactly the type of info I was seeking. Personal experience - especially recent experience.

I am still with BoA becoz if you have more than $25K in all the accounts combined, you get free trading account. No charge up to 30 transactions a month, which works great for me. I pay out all my CC dues in full all the time, so not worried there either, for now!
