Chase Says Hello to WaMu Customers in Spanish

Washington Mutual wants to make sure that its Spanish-speaking customers know that they’re turning into Chase Bank.

HOLA, pronto seré CHASE. Bienvenido a Chase. Estamos aquí para servirle.

Why is the sign in Spanish when the location is Koreatown? Because the majority of people who live in the area are Spanish speakers — Mexicans, Salvadorans, Colombians and Bolivians. Three languages are spoken in Wilshire Center — in terms of primary usage, English comes third behind Korean and Spanish.
