any opinions on what banks good for general student use?

i see that alot of students use washington mutual.

I use BofA. Free checking and they are just about everywhere. And especially in this fucking economy (AKA shit hole), I see them as the last bank going out of business.

i thought sesame st. had checks cashing locations cause i know i do

tip: if you see a bodega or fried chicken joint, a check cashing place isn't too far behind.

I use Wamu and haven't had any problems.

i only was asking cause i have to do a cash deal this weekend and wanted cash fast.

but i hear that check paying places put a high % on what they take out~

i think some grocery stores will cash them for you but they charge you a certain amount

look up money tree. but yeah get a bank account their going to rape you

[lestat]

you cant be that strapped for cash to resort to a check cashing place they'll rape with the charges

Virtually every mid-big banks have free checking, just pick one with alot of ATMs around you, so you wont get raped with fees when u need to withdraw some cash at night

I like Wells Fargo. They have touch screens ATMs. I don't know of any other branch that does that..yet.
