Stuff the banks. If you want to be treated as a human being rather than a cash cow, go to Nationwide Building Society.
And before you follow the advice of all the people recommending Halifax, remember who cleaned out Farepak. |

First Direct is the best bank I have been with by a long way. They pay a decent rate of interest and are reasonable about any fees (waiving them if you call them and explain reasons). You also get £25 for opening an account with them. You can also contact them easily by phone and internet.
Lloyds are the worst bank I've used. Avoid like the plague no matter what incentives they offer!
I don't work for any bank - just customer. |

A credit union.
Personal friendly service
Other than that they are all about the same
The next choice is:
Do you want easy access? find one close
Just savings? Find one with a good interest rate for you keeping money in their bank.
Checking? Find one without servicing fees. |

smile or First Direct, I have accounts at both. FD customer service is good, but they are slow to raise interest rates on savings accounts when bank rate goes up.
Avoid Lloyds - you will be tearing your hair out. |

A Credit Union in your area. My experience is no fees and very friendly. |

Choose a Credit Union instead of a bank. Banks are "for profit" organizations that charge you higher fees for everything. Credit Unions are "not for profit" organizations focused on service. You'll find the same offerings...savings, checking, money market, loans (with lower interest rates!), certificates of deposit, etc. Make sure the Credit you choose is a member of a "shared service" network so that you can access your account at other Credit Unions!
To find a Credit Union near you go to www.ncua.gov and click on the Resources for Consumers link or use the link below! |

Halifax isn't bad - don't go with Abbey - they are crap - the customer service is a call centre where the staff can barely understand English |

What state are you from. There are a lot of banks and they are not in every state. I use Commerce Bank which is a really good bank. But they are new and are really only on the east side of the US gradually making there way over to the West. Good Luck. |

If either of your parents was in the military, USAA. If not, go with Wachovia. They let you link your checking account to your savings account so that you never overdraft. |
