My bank's not even open on Saterday, haha.
As of 6pm west coast time there are reports with the number of 750,000 primary share accounts (checking, savings, basic loans, etc..) closing at a few of the major national banks. Considering the number of large banks that there are that don't seem like anything that will do any kind of damage. I could see BoA sending out new cancellation terms where you have to pay to close a account. Then it's a catch 22 because the more people that leave your just giving them free money to go somewhere else...
I would assume that Anonymous will do a DDOS attack before the day is out.

Hey bank of bigunit, how bout' a zero interest Hummer mod loan:mock:?... Seriously though anybody who can should def. switch to a bank or credit union like Navy fed. or USAA. I use both and the difference is amazing both in customer service and rates.

Let's hope not, and let's hope that these jackals get caught and the book is thrown at them.
And why did they pick Saturday for a major push to close bank accounts? My bank; Wells Fargo is open, but my Credit union is closed. :giggle: So, a person could close their Wells Fargo account, but would have to wait till Monday to open a credit union account.

Dont switch banks just to f over a "big" bank or on a certain day, lol...do it to save yourself some money and support those company's that treat their customers like they deserve to be treated... unlike BOA(and many others I'm sure) which treats customers like the're waiting in line for a soup kitchen. Monday is just as good,lol. Also Bank of bigunit, lucky for you I have a nice 2005 H1 all picked out. Please let me know when the check is sent out, if you need me to switch my checking acct. over to B.O.Bu. let me know and I will get the $8.86 transfered right away:shame:.

I ain't switching my banking methods. I have a Wells Fargo account and a Credit Union account. They both serve my purposes. Sorry BofB; besides have no interest in getting a H1.
Now, if Wells Fargo decides to charge me for banking, then I would probably pull my .50 out and move it to the Credit union to add to my .25.

after the monkey-fcuk I have been through with BofA the past 3 to 4 months with my refi I am ready to bail. They really treat you like crap and don't care how long you've been there or how good you've been. I feel like burying my $$ in the backyard -- then maybe the interest I make will be more than my fees?

I have been with a credit union for twenty years. I never did trust big banks.

Oh Anonymous makes me laugh sometimes... What makes me really pissed is when the media try's to portray them as a bunch of scary hackers who can take over the world at any minute. The media really does thrive on chaos.

They can't take over the world, but they could, if the wanted to, screw up your bank account for a few days. Just think if they had decided to play with BofA or Wells Fargo. It would hurt the bank, but in that short period, the innocent person would feel the effects almost immediately.

I don't understand why people get so upset. The banks did what most people do around tax time and the government gives them more than they give in. They said thankyou.
The government should have let them go bankrupt. Someone would have bought them out, the economy would have adjusted and life would have gone on. bailing out Fanny mae and Freddy mac is one think I wish Bush didn't give in too. he shoulud have let those programs fail.
as for credit unions. I tried them out many years ago and got treated worse there than I ever had at any bank. So I'll stay with a bank thankyou.
