which debit card to get??

<p>is credit union good?? or should I just get one from bank of america??</p>

<p>i did bank of america since its really close to campus =P.</p>

<p>I'm going to open an account at Wachovia. How far is it from campus? I guess bank of america is ok, but I just like the sound of wachovia...haha</p>

<p>Ugh, I hated Wachovia. It was terrible. There were tons of hidden charges everywhere. But that's just my experience.</p>

<p>Really?? I thought they had free saving and checking. hmm I'll have to investigate.</p>

<p>Isn't there a list of close-by banks on the '09 site? I just picked a bank that was close by me at home and set up an account. Plus, almost all of those banks on the site have ATMs on campus. I think.</p>

<p>I know PNC does. But I don't have PNC in new york...I'm just going to wait, banks are going to have tables set up during orientation, right?</p>

<p>And yes, the 09 website listed PNC, Bank of America and Wachovia, I think. Maybe more</p>

<p>I think Chase is nearby, too.</p>

<p>And sovereign, except I can't find their rates.</p>

<p>we have no pnc either :(. go bank of america!</p>

<p>another vote for bank of america!</p>

<p>Does anyone else have negative experiences with Wachovia?
I guess I'll do B of A if it's so popular...</p>

<p>S has Wachovia for about 3 months and it is great. The website is easy, bill pay feature is wonderful and I think they give rebates for using other banks atms, they can send uou balance alerts......they are close by. Near E-quad</p>

<p>all that's free with Wachovia Extra Free Checking.</p>

<p>is chase bank far away from the campus??</p>

<p>B of A is good. their campus edge account is a nice deal</p>

<p>sooo... credit union = bad?</p>

<p>ceedit union not bad, but you also need the flexibility to bank in your home town.</p>

<p>Go BOA! ATM parties, whoop whoop! Haha.</p>

<p>BOA is the best for campus, theres an ATM right in Frist which is an added convenience.</p>

<p>can u get a BOA debit card without having a social security number??</p>
