Now open during business hours!

I haven't had a D.C. bank account in years, in part because of their limited hours. In 1999, I closed my SunTrust account in frustration that the branches closed at 3 p.m. and weren't open on weekends.

Walking by the Wachovia at 13th & I the other night, I noticed a sign touting the bank's hours as 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

I’m not sure what to think when a bank brags about being open during standard "banking hours."

I'm partial to Goliath National Bank myself.

Banker's Hours were traditionally 10am - 4pm, so that's actually an improvement.

Very well. I stand corrected. Way to go, Wachovia!
