It is time for a change. I have had enough of Associated Bank and after nearly 40 years of being a customer, I am beginning to pull my accounts and move them to different local banks or on-line banks. Why? If banking is getting impersonal, I might of well get an on-line account with an Internet bank for a better return. I will list the reasons, both pros and cons, on Associated Bank and the reasons for my switch.

My husband is from Ecuador and still has a lot of family down there, which means that we have to journey down there every couple years. Now that we have to buy four full-price tickets (and will soon need to buy five), we figured we should try to take advantage of a credit card that will give us frequent flier miles. The first one my husband tried was Bank Of America’s Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan credit card. Our reasons for choosing this card were simple: I usually flew Alaska to visit family in Arizona, it is a partner airline of American, which can get us to Ecuador, and they offered my husband 10,000 bonus miles to sign up for the card. After a couple of years, he convinced me to sign up for the card too. I’m glad I did.

My husband’s job relocated us in June. Our former bank did not have a bank branch that was convenient to our new home. Friends gave us such a commercial for Sun Trust that we decided to go talk with them.

Hi there,

Schlamozzel here with another Slumlord Brand (TM) review to round out the “Big Three” in the category of “Bombastic Blundering Bunk-mongering Insurance Companies”. Will you all please raise your toilet lids and give a “Royal Flush” to TIAA CREF Insurance Annuities.

As many of you my friends and return readers know I have “fairly-recently” lost my last remaining parent. Dealing with that issue of “life progression” as I call it is difficult enough. I’m at a time in my life when some ease and peace of mind would be tremendously appreciated. But in dealing with the “stone-walls” at TIAA CREF Insurance Annuities it has become plainly apparent I will have to forego that little dream.
