    That’s one of the side effects of all the bank acquisitions and mergers and consolidations. National banks have so much more money to invest in things like Mint/plaid integrations, live fraud monitoring (vs daily fraud monitoring), etc.

    Hell, I can’t even get free checks from my credit union anymore.

    And it doesn’t help that banks have lobbied to keep credit unions from merging outside of their immediate service areas.
