Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
This account has no monthly fees to worry about
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so unsure if there is any early account termination fee.
Our Verdict
Small bonus, but it is nice you can get some of it without a direct deposit. We don’t see a lot of Hawaii bank bonuses though, so might be worth doing. If anybody goes for it then please share your experiences in the comments below.
