I have had several different checking and savings accounts with so many different banks over the years I can't even remember some of their names and by far, I have had the least amount of issues with Wells Fargo than any other bank. Actually, none so far. As of right now, I have my checking, savings and home mortgage through them. The mortgage for over 12 years. They have always had great customer service, especially with the mortgage side of things. I have always carried (c/c) every time I go in local branches and have never seen any signs at any branches. I've used my WF debit card to purchase many firearms with no issues either. I switched my checking and savings from Chase because they were screwing up my accounts almost on a monthly basis, not mention the high fees they charge for seemed like everything. Maybe I have just been one the lucky ones! I haven't read in depth all about the issue with Hogue, but I suspect there is more to story. I really don't know. As for now, I haven't had a good enough reason to switch from WF. YMMV
When I stroked and my wife had to step in and handle the finances, Well Fargo initially denied I even had a business account with them. We had to produce a statement before they would acknowledge we had an account. Even though my wife was a signatory on the account they placed every road block imaginable in here path. Chase on the other hand could not have been more sympathetic and helpful to my wife. Both of the accounts were commercial business accounts.
