<<You can't force a bank to market a service/syste, that it hasn't finished developing.>> Benny- I realize this. I was merely expressing some frustration that they are taking so darn long to get to market. Hopefully, they're aware that there are others who have trusted relationships with their customers and aren't taking so long to come to market. I'm speaking about the online brokerages. Waterhouse (my broker) already offers bill payment, VISA (with 1% cash back), and basically all other bank services. And their money market checking account pays 5% interest and charges no month1y fee. Couple that with $12 commissions and I wonder: Why stick with the old bank, when I can do everything in one place. Oh yeah, and they support direct download of brokerage accounts into quicken. Paul
