I filled out the application 10 days ago answering all questions and sent a file with a copy of my drivers license to Western Bank. I received an email saying that a banker would call me within one business day. I have yet to ever hear from them. Very unprofessional way of doing business.

These jackasses charge $25 for an outgoing ACH transfer. Bankrate failed to disclose this (I saw it advertised there before it was listed on BestCashCow). This isn't an online bank as advertised and neither one of them should be showing it. Webbank is scam.
