 Wells
Fargo Bank is one of the larger banks in California, and offers its
customers an "ATM-Only" account that reduces or eliminates
monthly fees and minimum balance requirements. For no extra charge,
customers may access their accounts -- transfer funds between accounts,
print statements, view transaction information -- through the
Internet. I've been a Wells Fargo customer since 1992, and find
their computerized support to be excellent. Their competitors have
criticized Wells Fargo in radio ads for their lack of personalized
attention in offering ATM-Only accounts, capitalizing on customers' fear
of extra charges for seeing a teller. It's true Wells Fargo charges
extra for services rendered by a teller, but only those services that
could be done by phone, Internet, or ATM. In over eight years I have
not needed to speak to a teller for one of these services, so I'm at a
loss to understand why people are swayed by this advertising. |
