Can someone explain to me why the majority of the comments here have terrible grammar?

What exactly did they ask you to do? Stay awake as long as possible?

Any advice for someone who might be trying to do the same?

I've been a member of a credit union for a few years now, and while I would recommend it to anyone, the big banks do have their advantages.

I also have a Chase account that I use when I'm at school due to how many ATMs they have, how convenient their ATMs are, their mobile banking apps, and their generally very good customer service (free replacement debit cards, helpful tellers, etc). During hurricane Sandy, Chase had generators running at their branches and lifted restrictions on loans and waived overdraft fees to help people. My credit union also did some things to help out, but many of their branches were without power. I actually wrote myself a couple checks from my credit union and into my Chase account at access my money. In fact the only thing I don't like about Chase are how many things you can get fees for (using other ATMs, minimum balance, have to pay for first order of checks, etc).

I have all my paychecks direct deposited into my credit union, as they don't charge me to use out of bank ATMs, I get interest on my checking/savings accounts, and they don't charge me other BS fees. However customer service hasn't always been great and the ATMs they have don't compare to those of the big banks.
