We already have 1 checking at SunTrust, a 2nd checking at ING and a 
savings at ING. I have already gone round robin with them a couple of 
years ago. They had erroneously made a payment that was supposed to have 
been from someone elses account from mine, gave someone else my deposit 
and then turned around and charged me about $300 in fees because about 6 
debits came in at the same time along with a couple of ebill payments 
leaving me overdrawn. It took several days to straighten it out, and 
then while this was going on they bounced my rent check, which cost me 
an additional $100 to the landlord along with Cashiers Check only for 
future payments. That is why I opened the ING accounts. I keep the 
SunTrust account for quick access and also so that I wouldn't have to go 
through the hassles of changing my 2 govt disability direct deposits as 
well as my son's disability direct deposit. The less you fool with them, 
the easier life can be.
