To the Big Bank, the little guy is just an annoyance. They offer less services, charge more fees, and pay us minuscule interest.
Why is that, do you think? Personally, I think it's more of the same... uncontrolled, compassion-less greed.
About a month or so ago, I received a letter from Wells Fargo explaining to that my "always free" checking account was not going to be free any longer.
I had a similar situation happen with my bank within the last 6-8 months. It was being absorbed/assimilated by a larger fish, errr, bank.
After doing some research on the bigger fish, I decided it was time to make my move and moved my banking closer to home. The people at my old bank were great, it was the bank that they were moving to that I had problems with.
My new bank has been a very postive move. My personal account is free, and I pay $10/mo for my business account. Can't complain there.
