I have chase but I wanna open a new one with a different bank just so I can have another one. I’m considering Bank of America but don’t know much about them also there’s only like one in my area. I’d also like a new one for travel purposes just in case I’m in a new location that doesn’t have many chase banks.

I strongly wouldn't recommend bank of America. The worst bank in the world. Don't do it please. Just don't. I bank with first national bank myself and never once had any problems with money being stolen.

I use Chase for a physical location. I use Ally (online banking) for their savings account (~4% interest.) Then I have a secondary Ally bank i use to withdraw cash that I keep at most $ 500 in case it gets compromised.

Really— They’re that bad? Are there any first national banks in NY?

I'm sure there's some in NY. The headquarters is in PA right next door to NY. And yeah their terrible. They should just straight up shut that bank down.
