WaMu

I am sure you have seen WaMu's commercials on TV. While funny, they are not always very informative simply because of limited time and they are really advertising their checking accounts. So I wanted to give you a little more information as to exactly what you can expect from a WaMu Savings Account.

Trust me when I tell you that I completely understand why not everyone has a savings account - there's no way to save 10% of your income when you owe more than you make! But we all know how important a savings account is; they're practically a necessity in this day and age and WaMu has some of the best features available.

With free online banking and electronic statements you save money right off the bat (my statements cost me $5.00! - why should you have to pay to see how much money you have!?), but it gets better. If you maintain a $300 balance, your account is free, and you can link it to a checkings account to avoid overdraft charges. And you will always have access to your money through ATMs anywhere.

Regardless of the type of account you are looking to open, WaMu has you covered. NO more waiting in line for a teller, no more scheduling your life around the bank's hours; WaMu is available 24/7 and is never farther away than your home computer!
