Morgan checking account there are no FTF fees on my debit card, no ATM fees ever (and fees charged by 3rd parties are refunded same day, with no limit), unlimited free incoming/outgoing domestic and international wire transfers...
Truly unlimited and uncapped? I don't mean 1,000 per day, but, say, up 30 per month is ok and won't be considered abuse? Also, from your experience, how's their compliance dept with int'l wires?
Approximately, what size?
Thanks!
I can wholeheartedly recommend Charles Schwab. ATM fee refunds, superb customer service, and no monthly fees. I don't think I'll ever go back to banking with a local branch. It's just so much more convenient when it's all online.

Almost everything is online these days, but occasionally I receive checks that simply can't be deposited remotely. Checks cut by Wells Fargo Payment Services actually fall in that category, and I get one of those nearly every two weeks.
OP: Like others have stated, if you're chasing CC's, Chase is the place to be. Given that two of your list of three happen to be Chase specifically, it seems like a good bet. That said everything that Open123 stated I completely concur with in terms of the relative merits between banks. If BOFA hadn't finally annoyed me one too many times with the silly games they play with their checking accounts, I'd probably still be there. Overall I'm much happier with Chase, but I keep a few other acounts around for other purposes... like USAA's transfer options are likely best-in-class for small banking customers, no fees for inbound or outbound ACH's.
Crazy how many banks people here have checking accounts with. I have banking experience with BofA, Chase, and US Bank, and so far BofA has been the best. The online banking function is extremely well-developed and provides easy access to all financial accounts you have with BofA. BofA banking accounts typically carry more perks than those at other banks: you get free access to select museums, no maintenance fee if you use ATM's for simple transactions, no limit on credit card payments, and access to online shopping and local deals. Having a BofA banking account also gives you more value from their credit card rewards, typically 10% of the regular reward earning rate. Other major banks have a long way to go to catch up with BofA's online banking system.
Feel free to check out my brief review of BofA's online banking with respect to credit cards here: http://hiepsfinance.com/2013/03/03/bank-of-americas-credit-cards-an-insiders-view/

Where's your branch? I may come by to say hi in a couple of months.
I bank with Chase and USAA. I love that USAA deposits my paycheck a day before the normal pay date, but still keep Chase because I can deposit using my phone or at a branch

Ahahaha lol.
Thanks for the input peeps. As of right now, my main bank is Wells Fargo, followed by Chase, then Charles Scwab for my investments. I also have a Higherone account for my college. That said, I think I'll build a relationship with Chase (how would I do it without taking out any loans or applying for CCs... Kinda hard lol). Forgot to mention that all (except Scwab) of my accounts are College accounts
