[9:05pm] Sayyida: is there a better bank you have any ideas of using jokeefe ?

[9:06pm] Sayyida: we are willing to travel for the need
[9:08pm] designanddraft: amalgamated bank was the one who worked with occupy, google maps says there is one on the north side, it could b wrong, otherwise try calling a few credit unions

[9:10pm] Sayyida: same thing?
[9:10pm] Bosun: I was thinking Navey Credit Union - has the best national footprint and is a Credit Union.
[9:12pm] designanddraft: credit unions can choose to b in the national coop, there is an app, if u want to shop i can send it to u
[9:12pm] jokeefe: There seem to be branches near you. see https://www.bankbranchlocator.com/citizens-bank/
[9:12pm] papegaai: Title: Citizens Bank Branch Locator (at www.bankbranchlocator.com)
[9:12pm] jokeefe: Searching for Navey Credit Union, not finding it
[9:13pm] Bosun: You would need at least one veteran to hold down the primary membership.
[9:13pm] Bosun: Navy

[9:14pm] designanddraft: i was a bit late too, i thought the irc would populate with what i missed, it does not
[9:14pm] Pirate_Joe: citizens bank would be really easy for me
[9:14pm] Bosun: They are coop so all coop arms are in.
[9:15pm] Sayyida: sounds like citizens is a good match Bosun
[9:15pm] Sayyida: we are at half time
[9:15pm] Sayyida: well 3 seconds off
[9:16pm] Sayyida: Bosun, i think citizens would be a good match
[9:17pm] Sayyida: at least for distance alone for all people involved
[9:17pm] Bosun: It is east cost only Citizens Financial Group, Inc. is an American bank headquartered in Providence, Rhode Island, which operates in the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont.

[9:19pm] designanddraft: sounds like cold calling is needed, r u up for that?
[9:19pm] Bosun: An ATM will not open an account.
[9:20pm] Bosun: You need a branch.
[9:20pm] Sayyida: theres a branch in bayshore i thought
[9:20pm] Bosun: Different citizens.
[9:21pm] Sayyida: noted
[9:22pm] jokeefe: banks tend to be regional, so unless we choose a mega bank like BoA, Citibank or Chase, we aren’t like to find a branch in all the states we could need
[9:22pm] Pirate_Joe: the main point of use would be in Washington D.C.
[9:22pm] Pirate_Joe: So one that is there is more important than anywhere else
[9:23pm] designanddraft: the credit union coop is national, does someone have time to shop banking?
[9:23pm] Sayyida: I know there is a chase in DC, but I personally hate chase with a passion.
[9:23pm] jokeefe: agreed
[9:23pm] jokeefe: and wells fargo is *evil*

[9:24pm] Pirate_Joe: create a credit union
