Who has customer equipment (scanner, etc) that will allow electronic secure deposits so I can avoid going to Wells Fargo. I was much happier with Wachovia, and BankAtlantic had the best online banking. I wish I had Checkfree back. WellsFargo takes a bill Pay transaction on Saturday, and does not execute it until monday with a 5 day delivery window. What kind of business is this that the branch is open, but the back office is closed...I need a bank with a 24/7 back office that takes electronic customer transactions and no branches.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-58833530132938937922012-09-11T05:44:38.705-04:002012-09-11T05:44:38.705-04:00Good stuff, I never thought they were that known n...Good stuff, I never thought they were that known now.Online Bankinghttp://www.onlinebankingreviews.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-90873326855764797102012-08-11T07:33:17.258-04:002012-08-11T07:33:17.258-04:00I agree it is a hassle if a biller changes an addr...I agree it is a hassle if a biller changes an address - having to reinput all of the information is a royal pain. I had to do this just yesterday. Then Wells clutters up your inbox with emails telling you that you deleted a biller and added a biller. Not really. All I did was change a biller's address. And what about this nonsense about deducting the money from your account the day the check is sent, rather than the day the check is presented for payment? Because of weekends, the 5 days Wells says it needs can stretch into 9 days. And even longer if the biller holds on to the check for a few days. And all that time Wells is earning interest on my money (because Wells hasn't had to pay out the funds) and I'm not. Such a deal for Wells. Wachovia didn't take the money out of my account until the check was presented for payment. And to the poster who questioned the legacy Wachovia customer about what online bill payment systems he'd used other than Wachovia and Wells - I not only have used another bank's online bill payment, I CURRENTLY use another bank's online bill payment and will be switching from Wells shortly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-32154008776094333912012-08-10T06:31:21.132-04:002012-08-10T06:31:21.132-04:00Wells Fargo call center reps have to meet a sales ...Wells Fargo call center reps have to meet a sales quota.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-82045468190163140002012-08-10T05:40:56.590-04:002012-08-10T05:40:56.590-04:00Well at least if someone hacked into your account,...Well at least if someone hacked into your account, they would not be able to "edit" your mortgage payment to their own address.

How many checking accounts do you have? What other online banking interfaces have you used in the past 5 years out of curiosity? And in what order would you rank them?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-38056638311732299282012-08-09T22:22:21.062-04:002012-08-09T22:22:21.062-04:00Agreed.

Wells Fargo i...What???? Do they own this magazine?<br /><br />Wells Fargo is by far the worst online bank experience I've ever had. Their online bill pay is horrible. If a biller changes their address the Wells Fargo system doesn’t allow you to update it. Unlike every other bank system (and the Wachovia system they pulled me from), you can’t just edit the address. Their system doesn’t allow address edits. So you have to enter address changes as brand new payees from scratch . And- as a bonus- if the name of that new payee matches an existing payee, the system won’t allow you to enter it. So you’re left with either deleting the existing payee with the old address, hence losing all record of prior payments, or you have to try to get clever with a new name that the system won’t recognize (but the Post Office will when they deliver the payment). All this for a simple address change that would take 2 minutes and zero hassle with any other bank in the world. Maybe some of those TARP funds made it into the pockets of this magazine. No other way this bank could ever win an online award.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575396221761490577.post-15622563275236388832012-08-09T15:44:12.055-04:002012-08-09T15:44:12.055-04:00Yup, four out of five Mexican drug lords prefer We...Yup, four out of five Mexican drug lords prefer Wells Fargo because they can watch their money being laundered online.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
