They offer a free checking account with no monthly fees.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so unsure if there was any early account termination fee or not.
Our Verdict
Very location restrictive and because it’s a hard pull not worth doing. If anybody goes for this bonus then please share your experience in the comments.
