There are no good banks, the best would be a credit union  there fees are low. and most don't have monthly fees or hidden charges.

Wachovia - Don't know anything about it.\nBofA - hate them, their customer service is horrible, your just a number to them; have had different accounts there (business & personal) and have had anything but a good experience, no matter what the situation.\nWahsington Mutual - they are very good.  I don't bank there only because I have a credit union for the past 8 years.  Any dealings I have had have always been pleasant.  They are willing to please, actually listen to you and seem to care about you even if you aren't an account holder\n\nAll said, I would go with Washington Mutual.

I doubt anyone here can give much more than a bank or two.\nUse your browser and type in all the banks, by name, that you can think of, or use your local Yellow pages. for names.  They may even have their web addresses listed.\nAt these sites you will see all their benefits and services offered.\nAs to atmosphere, you will have to visit banks and compare them yourself.

There is no Official ranking among Australian Universities ... but this site provides one - http://www.australian-universities.com/rankings/\n\nu might search the top three and i m sure they all offer Finance Degrees .. Try to search those uni's website and see if u could speak with their admissions rep and get more info on their Finance Program .. \n\nscheduling a visit and talking to current students, is another way to find about more abt a Uni.. \n\nHope it Helps :)

It all depends on what you need from a bank. You can get more bang for your buck if you choose an individual bank for each banking need. A bank that gives you a good deal on free checking may not be able to give you a good savings rate.\n\nMyself, I have a Bank of America checking account ('free' with direct deposit, but I'm very happy with their bill pay program), a savings account with Emigrant Direct (4.25% APY), and I use credit cards from Citibank (excellent cash rewards).

It depends what you want it for. ALl our major banks offer various competing products and are mostly country wide, unlike in some other countries. \nIf you want to compare their bank rates go to USwitch or a similar website and compare the specific bank product you are interested in.\n\nPersonally I would stay clear of HSBC and Lloyds as they bothe screwed me around!

I know that Wachovia is a huge bank but I've really been pleased with their customer service. It's also nice that their ATM machines are everywhere so you can avoid those fees.\n\nBe warned that they will charge you thirty dollars for insufficient funds EVEN IF YOU HAVE OVERDRAFT PROTECTION which is bs.

Washington Mutual.  Online they offer a free checking account and a free savings account that pays 5% interest.  Their debit card earns rewards, though not as juicy as many credit cards offer.\n\nhttp://www.wamu.com

If you have trouble paying the complete monthly balance, go with one that has a very low interest rate.\nIf that is not a problem for you then why not choose one that has an awards program and earn points for flights and other incentives.\nNot knowing where you reside I can only say that in Australia, Virgin has a very good and reasonable (rates) card.\nThe one I have is outrageously expensive ( a high annual fee and a interest rate of over 19%) but my business expenses rack up the frequent flyer points and I travel regularly, so on occasion have free flights. Most major banks here have these cards, ANZ, CBA and Westpac. Most majors also have cheaper ones too.\nThere is a consumer website that compares all the cards on the market:\nhttp://www.cannex.com.au/default.asp?PageID=7\n\nHope this is of some help.

We have had Bank of America for several years and I am vey satisfied with it. It also has online bill pay (free) which saves a lot of stamps and envelopes. You can write checks to just about anyone.

Any bank should offer very low rates and fees.  Just make sure you're working with a reputable company and you'll be fine.  There's probably hundreds of companies out there that can give you the lowest rate.
