calm down there buddy.. you dont know everything.
yes they came up with a new plan, so this doesnt matter now, but I gotta correct you anyway.
Not every military member has those banks.... many switched to home town banks, or other big banks like Citi, Bank Of Ameria, etc etc.
so not everybody would have gotten the full paycheck promise those banks made.
on top of it, those banks only promised to do that for 1 check. If worse met worst, and the gov did not reach a deal by the first... those banks would not have paid a full or even a half check on the 1st, so the threat was still there.
Congress made a deal, so its all over now and we can be happy..... but dont fuss at somebody for assuming, when you are doing it too. I'm active duty Marine Corps, and even though I have Navy Fed, i have many friends who switched back to their pre-Marine Corps hometown bank.
