I have bank accounts at five different banks, and deal with two additional ones because I have credit cards with them. That's a total of seven banks. It's getting very complicated to keep track.
I have different reasons for each bank, but most reason's are obsolete now. (Ex. I opened one account because I worked near it and would pass by that bank on my home from work. But that was years ago, and I no longer work in that area.)

I just have one for me.Did you have all those bank for the use of credit cards?then you will be in serious trouble one day.Now a days,all banks are forcing hidden service charges on their customers and with five accounts,you have to spend a lot for the maintaining itself.My humble idea is to close all the unwanted accounts.

Luckily all the accounts I have don't charge any fees unless I make more than two transactions a month, and I don't.
Thanks for your response.

I have only one account in one bank and one credit card, all is alright with this bank, never had problems. Ouch, sure, it must be very difficult to deal with 7 banks, maybe you can close some of them?

I just have several bank accounts.I think it is unnecessary to open lots accounts,after all,I do not operate a company.In fact,most of the time I just use two accounts.I would like to choose the bank which have many branch and have good serivice.Simplicity is the best.
