Capitol One Banks Now open

[NICKI183]

If you have heard or you don't have one in your town, the Capitol One Banks are now open and serving customers.

Yes, they bought out North Folk Bank and are all over the place.  Where does this leave the Capitol One accounts.  Since, they are now a bank that can provide better services does anyone thing they will have an expansion of cards offered and rates.  The only cards they seem to speak of is the No Hassle Card.

Do you think if I open an account in six to eight months when my score increases they will give me better rates?

Just a thought

At the Capital One Bank, will the tellers have scripts in front of them that they are not allowed to deviate from?

"Hi, I'd like to open a savings account.  What is the current APY?"

"Yes, I understand your savings are very important to you.  Would you like to open a checking account, as well?"

"No, thank you.  What's the current APY on the savings account?"

"I understand.  Did you know that our checking accounts have no monthly service charge?"

. . .

I can't wait.

We have one on every corner now. They bought out all of our Hibernia's.

I banked with them for a short while, then moved on to Chase.

Happy birthday!

I used to pass by a North Fork Bank every day on the way to work, but that's since changed to something else so I haven't had an opportunity to verify the name change for myself yet.

Thanks Chedder!

Yeah, I plan to ask my friend tomorrow, as she banks wit them. I'm sure it's true, because I believe where I saw the one today use to be a bank, just can't remember which one. As I'm sure you know nyc has a bank on every corner, so it can be a bit dizzying.
