Do you assume that your bank serves your best interests? That a big bank’s products are better? That your online account information is accurate? Don’t believe any of it.
1. “Our branches are there to sell you, not serve you.”
2. “Our fees will only go up.”
3. “We change our interest rates all the time.”
4. “College campuses are gold mines for us.”
5. “In debt? The courts won’t help.”
6. “We’re excited about your trip to Europe, too!”
7. “For all the fine print, we don’t disclose very much.”
8. “Your money might be better off elsewhere.”
9. “When it comes to banks, smaller is sometimes better.”
10. “Your online account information isn’t necessarily accurate.”
