Not All Banks are Bad
Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2022 10:35 pmI have bank accounts with a couple of the really big banks, but this is not about them.
I also have two small accounts with my so-called “dump” bank. I used to use their coin counter in the lobby, but then they removed it around the time COVID became a thing. They still kept a counter at another local branch, but it is about 15 miles away and not accessible to customers anymore.
In visiting my branch today I found out they got another counting machine about a month ago! This very small bank gives excellent service, has no account fees, is open til 6pm on weekdays and for several hours on Saturday. And they don’t expect you to deposit the money in your account!
Sadly, they only have branches in two states and they aren’t big population centers like CA, FL, NY and TX. If you want to send me a private message with the state you live in, I can let you know if they are in your state. There is only about a 4% chance they are in your state.
Why am I even posting this? I’m doing it because so many people have pretty much given up on banks. I just wanted to say there are still some good ones out there. I imagine there are some good credit unions as well.
