What is a good bank? I need to close my account @ TCF and need a good, non-piece of **** bank without any foreigners who dont speak English or **********s who dont speak it properly. Don't ever bank with TCF - take it from me. Looking for suggestions .....

Try a credit union. Many credit unions offer higher return rates on savings accounts, offer lower interest rates on loans and you are not just another member.

I've been using US Bank for a while and am very satisfied with the service I get. Anyone else have US Bank?

Yep I would go for a credit union, I've had mine over 5 years and they have been great. Also they usually charge alot less for overdraft fees and things like that. My friends get charged $30+ dollars for overdrafting I get charged $14.

CREDIT UNIONS ARE THE WAY TO GO. From my understanding, credit unions are a non-profit organization (???), which is why they offer a lot of services at no fee, and features with fees are generally less expensive than you would get at a bank. Or I'm completely wrong. :D

Anybody wanna back that?

Basically I think the goverment is involved in some way with them too or the state not sure. mine is so cheap that I only need to have a minimum of $5.00 in my savings account and $0.00 in my checking. It used to be $25.00 minimum in savings account but they dropped it down not sure why.

I keep hearing good things about credit unions (yes, outside of this forum) and now I'm just wondering... how come not everyone just joins a credit union if they are that good?

I'm tempted to say they don't come in big chains or something like that. Anyone wanna fill me in a little?

I hate Wells Fargo, National City, and anything related to a major credit card.

Find the bank that's the most prominent in your region and use it. That way, your ATM fees won't pile up. All banks pretty much suck.
