I currently have my PC account through Washington Mutual. I've really unhappy with this bank and am considering moving my account to a different bank. How much trouble would it be to do that and to transfer my PC debit card and direct deposit? Also I have a show that I plan to submit tonight....should I go open my new account and deposit the funds there? Thanks for any advice.
 
It's really easy to switch your debit card to point to another bank. If you have some slow time coming up in which you don't have shows scheduled, that's probably the best time to switch it over - just so you're less likely to have money taken out of the account that's underfunded.If you have specific questions about how long it takes to switch over to the new bank, call or write to the finance department at HO. They'll be able to give you specific answers.
 
It depends on the specific policies and procedures of the new bank you choose to switch to. Generally, transferring your account and setting up direct deposit can be done online or in-person, and the process can take a few days to a week. You may also need to update any automatic payments or bills linked to your old account.As for your show submission, it's best to check with the new bank to see if they offer immediate access to deposited funds. If not, it may be safer to wait until the transfer is complete before depositing the funds. It's always a good idea to have some cash or a backup account available in case of any unexpected delays or issues during the transfer process.
