Tired of hearing about victims that "should have" -- REGARDLESS - theft is WRONG -- just because they got away with it for a while -- and the bank obviously did not have appropriate controls in place, MORALLY their actions are NOT ACCEPTABLE!
justathought -- BAD assumption -- you have no idea regarding an individual's situation regarding their banking practices -- this is not a "have/have not $'s" situation
-- and the question still is -- REGARDLESS OF AMOUNT -- is banking @ Alpine a good thing?
Just because I/you reconcile every month -- therefore do an "audit" - that should not take the burden of responsibility from Alpine Bank
wz4now -- what do you suggest? -- should I transfer my banking to another bank? - I agree the there a SERIOUS flaw for this to go unnoticed -- or should I continue to do my banking with Alpine, and assume that the "barn door is closed after the horses escaped"?
It has been suggested that the customers need to review their transactions -- so going back over the past several years is my task -- but think the Alpine should audit EVERY account - and not leave it up to each individual customer! This is way beyond an "oops" by an individual person.

the question was not regarding having money in a brokerage account, but should the "6 months operating" funds be transferred to another account? --
And what is "minor $'s" to one person, is "major $'s" to another.
