Avoiding Fees
The BizFree checking account has no monthly fee to worry about and you can make up to 125 transactions fee free as well. I wasn’t able to find any mention of any early account termination fee in the fee schedule.
Our Verdict
Best previous offer was for $200. It’s nice to see some people still offering bonuses for small business saturday now that American Express has given up. Worth doing if you live near a branch, I’ll add this to the best business checking bonuses.

Opened an account this morning. No issues, it was a very smooth process. I have opened up 10+ bank accounts this year. They did do a credit check – Risk ID I think she said. It gives a pass or fail rating, that’s it. Thanks Will and Curmudgeon!
This does pull ChexSystems and is Chex Sensitive! I was denied in branch the last time this was around. I always have about 15 Chex inquiries in the last 12 months.
Getting denied in-branch is very rare. Normally the bankers are willing to look past the number of inquiries if everything else checks out. That should make this bank ultra-sensitive!
