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 an EATF

It’s nice that you can get $100 of the bonus without a direct deposit. You should be able to ask if it’s a hard or soft pull before opening the account in branch.
