How many accounts will they open on your behalf without you knowing?

Definitely a reason to move out of CLE /s

Though for you I don't see why any of this is an issue, just do it on one of your trips.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Anyone have experience opening an account for an address outside of their service area?

If they'll pay $1,500 for each one, I'd be just fine with that.

I have no experience with WF in this regard, but I currently bank with a KC based bank (and relatively happy with their offering and personal service, though no Zelle).

I was actually thinking that they’ve come a long ways from when they opened up accounts without asking.
 it’s not so easy to get new customers the regular way

Anyone have any DPs about how accommodating the branches in the Monsey area are? I'd like to try
opening an account for an address outside of their service area

but if they are known to make things difficult I'll try a different branch.

Dan,

You really need to learn how to do this: The Pros And Cons Of Where You Live

2. Now here's one I wrote last night. I call it Get Pretty Link.

Sometimes, you're typing in a Forum (DDF anyone?) and want to write a link to a webpage. You want it to show the title of the page, instead of the URL. You can use write out the [url ] tags but it's a pain in the neck. Here's a better way:

Create a new bookmark on the bar (see above for instructions).  The name can be anything you want (eg: Get Pretty Link), and the Location/URL should be:
Code: [Select]
javascript:window.prompt("Press control-c","[url="+location.href+"]"+document.title+"[/url]");void(0);
Now, when you're on any web page (or even a forum page), you can click that button and then press control-c. Then just paste it into a blank thread, and you'll get a link that looks great.

Example: Useful Bookmarklets (browser bookmarks that do cool things)

Just as an FYI - you will likely get a 1099 for this interest income

DW opened an account with just her license, brand new Sole Prop. Have a business plan that makes sense ready to explain.

Why would it be an issue?

Yup

You would think, but in the past Wells Fargo has been the one bank that has *not* sent me a 1099. Multiple DPs.

PSA: Sign up for an email invite ASAP because I wouldn’t be shocked if they pull this early.
