Basic Checking
from Wells Fargo

Wells Fargo is a BAD bank to work with unless you are a person that has a large sum of money in your checking account. They are rude, hard to work with, and their services online take hours to get through to what you need!

I've had basic checking with Well Fargo for over 20 yrs, opened the account for direct deposit of my Air Force pay. My mortgage and auto payments were deducted monthly with no problems. When I've had occasion to call customer service they've been professional and resolved my issue or given me the proper action required to resolve it.
The online banking site is easy to use, allows for the tracki…ng of spending. Also included with this account is a VISA check card, at no charge.

I had a great experience with this bank and my checking account. When my debit card was stolen, they handled everything right away and helped reverse all the fraudulent charges immediately. I didn't have any problems when I used this bank.

I would not recommend anyone use Wells Fargo who doesn't have a minimum of 10,000 dollars in their account. They repeatedly held my husband's paycheck (which was direct deposit from the Army) until it was spent in overdraft charges. They charge you for everything including to talk to them on the phone and then charge an overdraft fee on that charge. They made us loose over a thousand dollars… in half a year!

I have had a basic checking account with Wells Fargo for almost 5 years now and have been completely satisfied with it the entire time. There are no unexpected fees and no monthly fees. Their online system is very easy to use and makes checking my account very convenient. Also, the customer service at both their bank branches and their toll-free number have always been superb. I would recom…mend Wells Fargo to anyone who is looking for a basic checking account.

I had this account for a little over a year. The bank failed to notify me about a slew of associated fees and I quickly found myself dealing with unjustifiable debt that could not be fought. This account, this bank in general is one that I would suggest people stay FAR AWAY FROM!!!

To be Frank with you, I have had Wells Fargo as my Bank for ages. I have never had a problem, you have everything you need online which is the best option. You can call them anytime as well. You do get a debit card yes, its handy and they have rewards programs you can add on to your checking account as well if you would like. I would recommend Wells Fargo to everyone. Fast drive through, frien…dly people, you cant beat it!
