I'd never thought I would be part of a bank that failed but alas, WaMu did, and I was quickly shuffled under the giant condor wing of Chase Bank. Today, they converted me from the spectre of my "WaMu" account to a full-on Chase account.
They were polite and courteous to the point of actually showing me how online banking works (redundant) but what was creepier was that when I told him I didn't know my account info for my various monthly pay-outs the friendly banker produced a dog-eared paged binder full of a corporate greatest hits of pay-to addresses.
Beside the discomfort of a banker knowing what corporate hegemons (proper use of word?) that my wallet bows to each month is it disturbing for a seemingly "helpful" corporate collusion to get each other paid? I think setting up payments to other corporations is a little different than Mickey D's palling up with Pixar to shill plastic figurines in the happy meals.
