Yep. I was with a local bank known as Walker Bank, founded by Joseph Walker in the 1880s when he and his brothers became the bankers for the Park City miners. I was happy.
They became part of a group called First Interstate. I was happy.
That group got bought out by Wells Fargo, and that's when the fun started. Same exact thing. I'm poor, so I timed my spending right down to the dollar. Then an unanounced fee for something, $2.50 I think it was, triggered an overdraft which triggered another overdraft which triggered etc...
My my estimation Wells Fargo took more than $2000 out of my account over a ten-year period, and only a small part of it was actually my fault. Never again.
