Bank suggestions?

[darxus]

I am tired of Wainwright bank's many and varied incompetencies. I believe there must be better.

I want four simple things:

1. Good online bill payment.
2. Checking with a debit card.
3. A decent real credit card through them.
4. Accessibility in the Cambridge / Somerville / Arlington area.

I would appreciate recommendations.
I don't have a real credit card and I want one. I'm open to non-bank suggestions.

David and I had...about as expected success with both Bank of America and Citizen's bank. Citizen's had more accessability with better hours/locations, Bank of America had slightly better customer service and less fees. (And we did only online banking with BoA, I think we set foot in one once, to sign the signature card after opening it online.) Both had all the things you are looking for.

Perhaps look around for a credit union? David and I part of one here in Colorado and we love it, much fewer fees and crap than regular banks and better interest rates on most accounts. From what I hear most credit unions are relaxing their membership requirements, so it's getting easier to find one to join.

Citizen just helped me save the last 18 months of our records so while I've had problems with them before I'm happy with them right now.
