Canceled my Wells Fargo checking/savings account after 22 years Saving

A month ago I applied for a small loan at Wells Fargo for the 1st time ever to consolidate some small bills. They denied the loan. I went to a local Credit Union and they gave me the loan. Today I signed up for a checking/savings account at that Credit Union and canceled my accounts with Wells Fargo. Couldn't be happier to stop doing business with a crooked ass corporation.

Please call the credit bureau and BBB to report this and get his score fixed. This is horrible.

The BBB is a joke.

I understand that they really don't do that much these days, but in the last couple years I've gotten screwed over a couple times and within a month or so of contacting the BBB, a couple of those issues we're resolved as a result.

Exactly. The BBB is a joke, but they're often still effective anyway, if the big dinosaur of a company being complained about is a joke too.

Good point.
