Avoiding Fees

GS checking and basic now accounts both have no monthly fee to worry about. I couldn’t get the fee schedule to load, so I’m unsure if there is any early account termination fee or not.

Our Verdict

Always love a bank bonus with no direct deposit requirement. Personally I think this is worth doing if you live near a branch as it’s easy to keep fee free and trigger the bonus as well. I’ve added this the best checking bonuses.
