I have to admit, I was pretty worried about being able to get a bank account without a permanent US residence and without a Social Security number, but it turned out to be a straightforward (if longwinded) process. So I have have a checking account and savings account with Chase. Partially because there are thousands of branches, partially for the geeky typographic reference.
I'm not entirely sure why my cheques (checks) have pictures of Tigger and Nemo on them, maybe I have a childs account? I do rather like them though. I also liked that the branch was playing a selection of Al Green in the background. Who cares if Americans still use cheques (checks), playing music in branches is progressive!
