Self Help is all you can do sometimes.

There are benefits to Prime beyond the shipping hook. We take advantage of some and are satisfied Prime members.

Yes, very satisfied prime members here.

Prime pays for itself many times over. I buy lots of stuff from amazon, the saved shipping charges pay for itself. Also, watch lots of amazon prime tv

3% without Prime, 5% with.

Is Discover matching that?

My bank has a hot teller.

I had to go to the bank today. First I had to get dressed and prepared for it.

 

[ultrarunner]

I had the same thought...

The bank entrance has a sign barring entry to those with hoods and/or masks.

It was still there last week

Royal Bank Branch here open for walk in business. Wish I had bought shares in plexi-glass though.

My bank and CU are both drive up only. I had to cancel my ATM/debit card this week after I noticed that Amazon had done an "inquiry"... no money taken out but they shouldn't even have that number; the only thing I used that debit card for was to take out money and pay my electric bill.
Even if the bank replaces money taken fraudulently you still don't have it for a period of time; and there's no such thing as a free lunch, somebody eats that loss and passes the cost to you.

Add me to the list of people with a land line. I ditched my cell phone because I couldn't afford both. (and have an employer provided smart phone.)

From the end of my driveway I can see the local bank drive-ups. Merged with with another local bank few years ago (now a dozen locations). Still Friendly, helpful and seem to know everyone on sight. They have closed lobbies for normal walk in traffic. Need to make an appointment go in for customer service or safety deposit box.

I use the online banking for both personal and business accounts. No more paper statements in the mail. Transfer money, pay mortgage, etc all from computer or phone.

They encourage use of ATM card by raising interest rates on checking account if you use the card at stores at least 12 times a month and get electronic statements. Small local stuff on ATM, big and online stuff on the rewards credit cards.

Few years ago my daughter needed money. Walked in to local BofA branch with cash and her account number. They refused to let me deposit cash in to her account. "Only the account owner can deposit cash." WTF?

We did get rid of home landline. Still have landline for business. Spend more time on cell then landline with clients.
