[litany of bank harassment of non-customers]

> Any thoughts?

Yes.  The marketplace solution is a good one and I vote with my
checkbook.  I think most of us customers are increasingly looking for
good service when choosing a bank.

After much dissatisfaction with our major local California banks, in
terms of unreasonable fees, incompetence, unfriendliness, long lines,
and arbitrary unbusinesslike policies, we have switched our accounts
to Citibank and recommended them to some of our clients.  They know
how to put on a good show for individual and small businesses.

I hear that Glendale Federal is also a good bank.

[of course, I am sure this will set off a fury of horror stories from
these two banks]
