Shop Locally

Shop locally is usually used in terms of farmers, but it's also appropriate for bankers.

The people at the local branch want to keep their jobs. They are more likely to give you the help you want than someone from another country, or even another state. Go to your local branch office for any problems or questions or to learn new features, such as the following:

• Back bank statements at no charge
• Copies of checks or deposits at no charge
• Bank Fee reversal
• To find out how you can reduce or stop paying bank service charges in the future?
• Setup a new way of paying, like bill pay or an automatic check.
• New deposit and other electronic options.

If you're a local business owner, ask for the branch manager. He or she is a good person to get to know in your community.
