So before I came out to Sunny LA I was going to close my Chase account cause it didn't exist in California, but I was persuaded by a Chase rep to keep it open cause he said they WaMu (Washington Mutual) was being bought out by Chase. He also assured me that by the time I get out to Cali everything would be cool. So I make the move to Cali and errr he was WRONG! It wasn't until the third week of March when WaMu's name started to change to Chase but just because it's Chase on the outside doesn't mean it's Chase on the inside but let me explain. So during this process all WaMus were becoming Chase, the employee's wore Chase attire and there were even Chase advertisements on the radio. So I'm thinking in my head Chase=Chase right, errr I was WRONG! So for the first visit I learned that I can only withdraw money from the ATM and I can I only withdraw $500 a day. I also learn that I can't deposit any money into my account until the month of April. So time passes and it's still tough out here for a Chase account holder. Currently I can deposit but it's mailed off to an actual Chase branch so the it can take 3-5 business days to get it in your account, but I must admit it's been pretty quick on my end (knock on wood). When it comes to withdraws I do have the authority to write a check to myself and get it back in cash if I choose not to do it by ATM. They can not look at my transaction history and they don't follow Chase rules they're still under WaMu rules with 25% Chase accessibility. So I have to play it out until October (that's what I've been told) then everything should be up to par on my banking but until then I have no choice but to put up with. So I'm going to continue to chase what matters, my money, LOL.
