Bank suggestions?

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.

credit unions rule

Go with a credit union. They rule. I gave up on banks decades ago. Credit unions do all the same stuff but they're nonprofit and member-owned like coops.

I joined Digital Credit Union way back when I was a DEC employee and it was the DEC employees' credit union. Now that DEC is gone, DCU is still going strong and better than ever. All my electronic billing, credit card, checks, etc. go through them. www.dcu.org
