I use Bank of America for Student Checking and Savings accounts, but have come to distrust them (and banks in general).
I did use the search engine and read about switching to credit unions and other options (like local, smaller banks, or keeping money in a safe), but they were older threads, and I was wondering if there are updated, better suggestions now that things have changed for the worse.
My "student" savings account has a monthly interest rate of 0.05%, whereas the regular savings account has a rate of 0.10. I only have a few thousand in there at the moment, and there is no maintenance fee.
Should I:
A) stay with the Student account?
B) switch to regular?
C) leave Bank of America in general and/or
D) try Other?
Thanks in advance.
