Every time I move to a new town I have had to get a local branch so that I can cash payroll checks until direct deposit kicks in. (You know the scarcity of USAA branches.) Every one of the 5 different banks I have used has charged fees for non branded ATMs. However, once debit took off I never saw extra fees if items were purchased from a retailer.
There's also no charge to do wire transfers which is quite handy when you have multiple bank accounts. I have always been a fan of USAA, which is why I never have closed the account. And excellent service too....is USAA a real bank?
I don't believe that's a concern just yet. Diller has munched up many properties. The information has been silo'd site by site the entire time.
I believe this to be due to the forceful marriage of technology teams. It takes time for developers to warm up to each other. Developers wisely tend to wait until all the proper NDAs land on their desk before wantonly handing out their knowledge. This creates delays. The benefits/detriments of each site's technology won't filter down to development for several years. Aside from branding from one site to another, I haven't witnessed sharing of technology in the InterActive family.
This doesn't mean that we won't hear popping sounds of heads coming out when Interactive shareholders realize that costs can be cut if tech is shared or IOW developers axed...within the family.
The first time I saw Social Engineering on the big screen was when Matthew Broderick got himself sent to the principals office just so he could get the weekly password.
That movie came out in 83 and the idea wasn't new then.
