I bank at Suntrust (several branches) in South Florida and have never witnessed a shortage of withdrawal slips. The Suntrust Employees are always friendly and have been so since I opened my account(s) over a year ago. The service has been top-notch and thus I closed my Wachovia account(s) and moved over everything to Suntrust. Yes, Suntrust is gonna take some heat from the Florida real estate market but I'm confident they will survive. Now since we are talking troubled banks - take a walk to a Wachovia in South Florida - scary! I even recently purchased 600 shares of STI to back my conviction. Nice dividend yield, an acquisition target, and I bet decent earnings this week.
