I closed my account over a month ago when BBVA revealed the new policy terms. Interest rates were already dropping and were going to get worse. Fees that hadn’t been present were getting added on. Losing the budgeting features meant there was no point in being with BBVA when nearly every other bank has either better fees, interest rates, or both.

I'm planning on closing mine. only reason I kept mine was taxs were just filed and I was just in the start of a job change. there's no way I'd stay with their fee structure

It was my second account. I had one for the household but liked using Simple. They wouldn’t let me open a joint account with my wife (green card holder) so it couldn’t be my primary account. I only had my “allowance” money in there by the time they closed. I’d convinced a lot of friends who were so-so with finances to try it and the budgeting feature helped them a ton. Squandered opportunity by BBVA.
