Another thing about Ally... They know they don't have branches. Phone support 24/7. 100 free checks on sign up and in this day and age it will take me years to make a dent in that supply. Ally also reimburses you for any ATM fees you incur (I'm sure there is some monthly limit), but I hardly ever use ATMs. You can almost always get cash back after purchase from one of your regular shopping locations. PayPal makes paying some individuals and vendors easy. Ally also has Popmoney which lets you pay individuals with their phone number or email address and it goes bank account to bank account with the usual transfer times.
I'm curious (as I honestly have not gone into a branch other than for account set up or closure in years) as to what the branch will give you that would not otherwise happen with your regular day to day banking needs?
