On: BankSimple invites first customers; rebrands itsel...

As a follow-on to this, it certainly appears (from quick searches of your site as well as reading through this thread) as though you are not disclosing which banks you are specifically partnering with... this is certainly your choice, of course, but given the events of the past few years, I think that there's a significant number of people that make an active choice not to use certain banks due to their past behaviors - if I were to sign up for something like this, I would be concerned that there would be a chance that I could be implicitly supporting a company that I'm actively not supporting today. Is there any notion of being able to "choose" the partner bank your account is held with, or at least being able to screen a list prior to opening an account?

We've disclosed all of our bank, technology, and processing partners.

I don't think we're likely to allow customers to choose which partner bank holds their funds, but we do make that information transparent.

Could you point me to the place where you've done this?

Edit: it looks like you disclosed two partner banks at http://www.simple.com/blog/Simple/partners-funding/, but I'm not sure that this is a conclusive list.
