Farewell WAMU, You Were the Best Bank I Ever Had

wamu1 As I write this my wife is at Chase opening up new checking and savings accounts so that we can move from Washington Mutual.  There are a couple reasons for the switch but the biggest reason is that it seems that they are about to be scooped up by some other bank. There is a chance that Chase could buy them but I really do not want to get caught in that transition period when millions of folks are being transitioned at the same time.

The other reasons that Chase is a good switch to us is that we have our mortgage with them and they have a branch that is right down the street from our house. The closet WAMU was quite a distance so going to the bank was always “a trip to the bank”. Having a Chase bank on the corner will add to the convenience factor.

Things that I liked about WAMU were:

  • They never screwed up my account
  • They never screwed up my account and then made me convince them that they screwed up my account (unlike another bank that starts with a “B” and ends with an “A”)
  • They worked with me when I screwed up my account
  • The gave me free checks for life! (who knew it would be so short ;-( )

I hope that Chase is close to being as good of a bank as WAMU was. Farewell WAMU, you were the best bank I ever had.
