Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Simply checking has no monthly fees to worry about.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so I’m unsure if there is an early account termination fee or not
Our Verdict
Was $400 in the past and you could get $200 of that with no direct deposit, but we haven’t seen that in some time. We will add this to our list of the best bank account bonuses page.
