Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
There is a free checking account with no monthly fees to worry about.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find any mention of an early account termination fee in the fee schedule.
Our Verdict
Small bonus that needs to be opened in branch and has a direct deposit requirement, not really the best offer. If anybody goes for it then let us know if it’s a hard or soft pull in the comments below.
