Wells Fargo will CLOSE your account if the check is considered Stale. It just happened to a friend of mine. No fault of her, she received a check with an incorrect date (2011 instead of 2012), she deposited it without noticing the date. Wells Fargo froze her account and then closed it.
Wachovia banks are located primarily on the East Coast of the United States, but a recent merger has bonded Wachovia with Wells Fargo. With this, it is accurate to say that anywhere that Wells Fargo reaches, which is primarily across the United States, Wachovia can possibly reach.
Wells Fargo does not offer reverse mortgages. As of June 2011 they released a news segment saying they will no longer offer reverse mortgages. Being one of the leading in reverse mortgages previously it is strange to see why.
After Wells Fargo v. Gutierrez, an action was filed against Bank of America alleging various unfair and deceptive business practices relating to the order in which they process transactions to cause customers to incur additional overdraft charges. Rather than litigating the issues like Wells Fargo did, and lose, they settled. Payments went out in December of 2011.
Bank of America is a pretty reputable bank. We also use wells Fargo but from what i hear, this bank is more prevalent only in California. You should pick a bank that has local access too. According to "American Banker," B of A was ranked 28 of 30 in 2011 -- which could be considered "pretty reputable" if you count the hundreds of banks not included in the top 30. Wells Fargo was listed as 26 of 30.
