Bank of the West

So, that old account I first started when I moved to Kansas has finally been closed. It's gone through a lot, or lack of gone through. I moved, then got married and changed my name. Then moved again. Then the bank got bought out. And through all this, not much changed in my account, except for that they didn't change my name when I told them first, they continued to send my statements to 1st street, even though I lived in Manhattan.
