» Bank Transfer Day: Remember, Remember the 5th of November
Money-movers, who advocate changing from large corporate banks to credit unions or small local banks, are calling to make November 5 a nationwide Bank Transfer Day.
Together we can ensure that these banking institutions will ALWAYS remember the 5th of November!!
• Open an account with a Credit Union
• Transfer your funds to the new account (online or in person) by 11/05
• Follow your bank’s procedures to close your accountTo find a credit union near you: http://www.findacreditunion.com/…...

PS.
Relying on a wire transfer also leave your money subject to creative bank fees as it heads out the door, and lets your ex-bank know where you’ve gone so they can pursue you with additional charges. Much better, I think, to take almost all your money in a bank check and walk it over to a credit union for deposit into your new account.
For easy deposit at the credit union end, open your account there (usually costs $5.00) earlier in the week.
Then, the following week when you’re sure your outstanding checks have cleared your bank account and that you’ve redirected all your auto-billpay transactions, go to your bank branch and close your account.
