We write a lot of content about bank accounts, whether it be sign up bonuses or high interest accounts. A lot of this information is only useful for a small amount of time, I thought it would be useful to create a page with links to pages with content that is relevant almost always.

Hello, I just turned 18 – could anyone recommend me what my first bank should be and its pros/cons?
“Convenience accounts” – I’m looking to set up a convenience account, but am struggling to find a bank that actually offers that option. Does anybody know a bank that offers a convenience account? (A convenience account is similar to a joint account except that the owner and the their estate retains ownership of the account and the convenience agent is simply authorized to use the account for the owner’s benefit. I will be traveling extensively and so would like to give another trusted individual access to one of my accounts to manage some financial affairs while I’m traveling without doing a full joint account.) Just thought I would post here and see if there is any advice. Thanks.
Could someone refer me for HSBC account ? need to open one for my mortgage and want to utilize new account offer which is only available through referrals
I want to know how to find a bank//financial account opened using my Identity, or if someone is using a very old one I thought was closed. I recently was denied vehicle insurance, b/c there is some record not on my cr, that I’ve had an uninsured vehicle for more than 6 months (I haven’t had a vehicle), I’m regularly unable access ability because my (last time) email and phone number were not accurate (untrue), there are reoccurring identity questions that I have nothing to do with and there has apparently been a credit card in my name there is no information on my cr(s) about. I’ve never had a credit card. Also, on online Identity report I paid for, I’d lived in a state I never lived in or knew anyone in, and in a state I visited a long time ago for a few months and am related to people who don’t exist. I also have reason to believe someone else used my medical insurance when I had it in another state. There is more, but I can’t find it, or take action against it, by using my credit reports. The problem is not going away. Please help if you know of anything.

Hi everybody!
Could someone send me a referral code for the SmartyPig savings account (Sallie Mae)?
Thanks in advance!
Is it possible buy Swagbucks in the app? I can’t find it there. Thanks.
@chuck How do I paste my referral link in the Porte referral section?
Is it possible add to the database somewhere the statement closing date policy for each bank for non-CC accounts? Since many have monthly requirements it’s vital to know this. It’s no problem when they follow the calendar month but many close mid-month based on opening date and vary month to month. Even knowing which banks do this this would be helpful. Thanks
Are your Bank Bonuses taxable? If you had to spend or deposit your money to receive bonuses then more than likely your bonuses ARE NOT TAXABLE!! You had to do something to get something. READ this article! I am filing an AMENDED TAX RETURN and getting my money back!! https://www.yahoo.com/news/credit-card-rewards-taxable-160345453.html
More specifically, the Yahoo article deals with CREDIT CARD bonuses, points, etc. NOT bank account bonuses, which is how someone might interpret “Banks Bonuses”.
