Default OT Crappy banking part 2

I am changing ISPs so I have to change my email address. The first
email address I changed was my bank. Well today I got another email
from my bank to the old email address that will expire in about 4
days.

My bank was originally South Trust and they went to Wells Fargo. My
credit card was also South Trust. The email I got was from Wells
Fargo credit card rewards. So I called the bank and asked why the
email was still coming to the old address. The guy said...that was a
separate account. I could either log on to that web site or talk to
someone else in another department. I asked to do it over the phone,
and told him that setting up another username/password is very
inconvenient. He asked if I wanted the other number for my records. I
politely told him.............no.

I was transferred to the other department for a new recording. I then
had to go back to my records (in another room from my computer) to
provide them with my account number again. I was put on hold for a
min or two and then.....I am sorry we can't complete this
transaction.........click.

O'Neil to General Hammond:
For the record Sir, I wanted to blow it the hell up.

Look around for a credit union you may qualify to join. I've banked
with a credit union for over 30 years and have had absolutely
consistently excellent customer service. They pay better interest on
all interest bearing accounts, require lower limits for free checking,
have lower interest rates for loans. I can do all my banking on line
and can cite my credit union checking account to enable free "autopay"
options from utilites, newspapers, etc. And, all ATM fees from
non-affiliated ATMS are waived.
