My major complaint - no Washington Mutual or Wells Fargo Bank in the immediate area. I refuse to use B of A (ever again).

Anybody have a relative working for one of those banks that could pull some strings to get a new branch near here?

I'm confused? Would this be a restaurant that you need opened? Something like, "Would you like a slurpee with that deposit?" ;D

i use tv's citizen's first for local banking needs. auto bill pay of tv utilities, amenities etc. and then just keep my preferred money market and investment accounts with institutions i access by phone or online.
citizen's first atm's are all over the villages so never a fee to get cash.

If you move to the Southern Trace area you will have plenty of banks in your back yard - you are on the EAST Coast now - Not many of them West Coast bank on every corner back here.

Sorry to foul up the restaurant topic

chuckinca, Wamu used to be known as Home Savings in Florida maybe there are some Wamu affiliated bank under another name. I am still a Californian and hope you find one as I also bank at Wamu. You could keep an on line account but, foreign ATM could prove too expensive and you should have a local bank affiliation any way!

There's a WAMU branch on 441 in Mt Dora (18 miles away) and another 4 within 35 miles of TV - you would think with all the banks around here that they would have a branch in TV too.

I've had a great relationship with Wachovia for quite a few years. If all else fails, try them out.

Wachovia doesn't have a branch north of the LA area - about 400 miles south of here. Thanks for the suggestion tho.

We need a bank in Fla and Norcal for winters in Fla and summers in Lakeport, Ca - Clear Lake - largest natural lake in Calif: Website - http://www.lakecounty.com/)

Lakeport, pop. 5,500, has BofA, WAMU, Wells Fargo and a couple local banks.
