Holy shit, I so did not expect to be right!
I cannot believe the asshattery that went into this. Now I just want to talk to this guy's manager and - I don't know what, exactly.
I love my CU, and you should be able to join. NIH Federal Credit Union.
Ohhh good rec.
I've also heard good things about TD Bank.
Innteresting... we have one right across the street from our soon to be former bank.
Seconding the CU rec. We have two, one in NC and one in PNW, and we love both.
I said in Natter, but it bears repeating, Maria, good news is awesome!
Yay for getting decent diagnosis and adequate treatment, sj, even if you did have to wrangle office staff to get there.
All best possible healing thoughts to Daniel and coping thoughts to Andi. Also, JZ? This?
Sure hands, wise heads, and healing.
wants to be read, "sure hands, wise heads, can't lose."
Many thanks, again everyone.
Sox, threaten them with filing a complaint to the governing regulatory agency. It's either going to be the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency or the FDIC.
Even though NIHFCU is based in the DC area, there's a network of CU Service Centers (around 4,000 I think) across the country that will allow you to bank in person if necessary. I've never had a lick of trouble with them, and I've been a member since 1993 or '94.

This. I've left voicemails with trigger words. They have until Monday to phone me back, then I'm escalating to the next management level.
Seriously, I'm Inigo Montoya now. "HELLO! My Name is Inigo Montoya! You forked with my bank account. Prepare to die."
OMG Sox.
You may want to go open new accts somewhere tomorrow (are banks open on Saturdays) to prime them for you transferring all your stuff over. It can take a couple of days to get your cards and online access, etc.
It's going to take a bit longer than a weekend, given the shenanigans. I am so pissed, though I'm glad I know what happened, have a name to bandy about as the responsible party, and a good handle on what happened.
Thank goodness for Trader Joes Pirate Booty. It got nommed.
Woo to the hoo, Maria!!
I'm not caught up in Natter, so I don't know what's happening exactly, but GIT 'EM, SOX. And I also love credit unions.
Maria, that is fantastic news!
I'm running a little behind, too, so I know not of Sox trauma, other than to say, GO CUs!
