Washington Mutual Online Banking Home
Most people should be aware by now that Washington Mutual has been merged with Chase Bank. For banking customers, this likely won’t change much, but we here at Savings Accounts 411 thought we should look at the Washington Mutual Online site to see if anything should be reported.
If you’re wondering about the WaMu.com change to Chase, there is a great article explaining the merger and what it means for WaMu Online customers. All of the Washington Mutual Online banking features are still on the site and won’t change except for the title, so those used to WaMu Online will find they won’t have a learning curve in the switch.
If you have a mortgage with Washington Mutual, you will be interested in the mortgage information listed on WaMu.com including what the change to Chase means for your mortgage (probably not much, but a free refinance opportunity may catch your eye) as well as some valuable information for homeowners who’re behind on payments. WaMu Online has a great article about the new housing plan and options from the government that could be of use.
If you have a CD or IRA through Washington Mutual Online, you will find that the terms will stay the same until the period is up, so your investments are safe.
Overall, there is some good information for you if you’re a WaMu.com customer at the website.
