"We are pleased with our progress on the Golden West integration and the additional opportunities for Wachovia," said Tom Wurtz, Wachovia chief financial officer.

In February, World Savings Bank branches began offering Free Checking with no direct deposit requirement and no minimum balance, as well as free Online BillPay throughout its footprint.
Currently Wachovia has 385 mortgage consultants, including 185 added in February, in its financial centers focused on originating Pick-A-Payment and other mortgage products to its customer base. Plans are to have 800 mortgage consultants trained on all mortgage product offerings by the end of this year.
