Washington Mutual Accounts After JPMorgan Chase Acquisition
Many people are wondering what will happen to their Washington Mutual accounts now that WaMu has been acquired by JPMorgan Chase. Will our WaMu savings accounts be terminated? Will we continue to be able to buy WaMu CD’s and get those great WaMu CD rates? Well, hopefully this article on Washington Mutual accounts after the JPMorgan Chase acquisition will help to answer these questions for you.
Will our Washington Mutual Savings Account stay open?
The answer to this question seems to be yes. JPMorgan Chase has stated that all Washington Mutual accounts will remain valid. The washington mutual account numbers will remain the same and your accounts will still be held as Washington Mutual Accounts. The name of the account will not change to JPMorgan Chase or Chase Bank.
Can we continue to use our Washington Mutual Check Card and Checks?
The answer to this is also yes. Your Washington Mutual checking account will remain the same. You can continue to use your WaMu debit card, WaMu ATMs and WaMu branch locations. However, it looks like we will also be able to soon use Chase Bank ATM machines. This is great news.
Will Chase change the name of the Washington Mutual branch locations, credit cards, debit cards and checks?
The answer to this question is yes. JPMorgan Chase will eventually change the Washington Mutual name to Chase. Eventually the Washington Mutual branch locations will be renamed Chase Bank. As your Washington Mutual credit cards and debit cards expire, they will be reissued as Chase Bank cards.
I would like to know how to contact WaMu concerning my outstanding balance on my credit card and how much is still available on Visa.
