National availability is definitely a point in favor of big banks, *if* that's something you need. I don't travel so far that my credit union can't do what I need to do for me. I don't travel across the country, I don't have a need to visit a branch across the country. So, while I agree that BofA's geographical footprint far surpasses that of my local credit union, that represents useless excess for me. I won't use it, I don't need it and I certainly don't want to pay for it.
