We already have an interest in Suntrust doing well. My grandfather was one of the founding investors when it started. I used to be a BoA customer but their lack of clue and lack of customer service convinced me to jump to my current bank several years ago (I had originally been at a bank that was bought then BoA bought that bank. I briefly had checks for a bank that was two before the current owner (I had to buy new checks because they wouldn't honor the old ones).

Hmmm, I wonder what happened to my savings account from when I was a child. I never got to do much with it but I remember having a book and going to the mall with my Mom to get $. I think I got up to around $20 in it at one point (HUGE amount of money for me on my $.25/week allowance) but some of that was birthday/holiday $. I don't remember dealing with it at all once I was around 10. I guess maybe we closed it and moved it to something else.
