Wish you'd recorded the Chase manager that closed the account (4.00 / 1)

What was their reaction?  What did you tell them about why you were closing your account.  My wife has an account at Chase.  I will try to convince her to close her account too and record the event.

What I told him (4.00 / 1)

Link

He was actually the same guy with whom we had deposited my husband's buy-out check a few months ago.

He read the thing closely--and said "the last thing MI needs is to lose more jobs." He also admitted that JPMC had gotten real sweetheart deals in the WaMu and Bear rescues (which I didn't have on my explanation, but I knew about). So he's aware JPMC has been getting its share of taxpayer love.

But then he tried to convince me that UM was as nasty an entity as Chase.

Chrysler on JP Morgan Chase (0.00 / 0)

What JP Morgan Chase did to Chrysler is such a crazy idea for me, not only will they make the workers living in hell and all that, also they make the car company close down and not able to do their cars and some car parts (brake discs).
