Not sure I'm willing to jump to another unknown because as bad as Arcadia has been, I am at least getting 10% back on Future with Arcadia.

You can try enrolling with another provider such as the one from @avromie7 or https://www.dansdeals.com/advertisement/experience-solar-savings-without-cluttering-roof-off-roof/ or number of places and will just be with whomever gets you on first.

Can someone recommend an engineer? (for moving over a potential load bearing wall).
Maybe ask here: https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=2163.0

Don't I have to move my bill over to them already, even before I get on a farm? Think Arcadia made me move

Because we're smarter than that. We don't like having accounts opened that we never asked for.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I’ve banked there for many years but plan on switching now that they closed the Main St location.

"Why do some...?" or "Why do so few...?"

(I try to refrain from commenting on writing mistakes, but those are different questions.)

I can't talk for others but can talk for myself.

I have no firsthand knowledge of banks. But growing up with a Chase bank in my neighborhood, I always saw Chase as 'the bank'. I don't know where I got the perception from, but I see Wells Fargo as a business bank. I am not a business owner, so I naturally turned to Chase when I opened my account.

And I like blue better than yellow.

The Arcadia bill pay service has nothing to do with your community solar enrollment on a regulatory level. You can be enrolled with Arcadia without it (like I am) or can technically use it without being enrolled with them. They use it for their own convenience to help ensure community solar bills are paid.

I made a mistake while typing.
The question is - why do so few...

I had an account with their predecessors from when I was a kid at The Savings Bank of Rockland which became First Fideltiy to First Union to Wachovia to Wells Fargo (I think a missed some in the middle). I used Wells Fargo and tolerated the poor service since the changeover from Wachovia until I dealt with an estate account with Chase and saw the difference in service. Once COVID hit, Wells Fargo branches basically ceased to exist. I've moved all of my banking to Chase and am very satisfied.

I thought Chase doesn't have free checking anymore?
