Avoiding Fees
Easiest account to keep fee free is the Titans Basic Checking account, this has a $3 monthly fee but this is waived with eStatements. I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule, so I am unsure if they charge early account termination fees or not.
Our Verdict
They are also offering $100 in Grizzlies tickets. I don’t want Titans gear at all, I wish they would just offer a cash or comparable deal instead but I guess they focus on these team deals instead. Not going to add it to our checking account bonus page due to the fact it’s for team gear and we also don’t really know anything about this bank (e.g hard/soft pull?)

BTW, where’s the info that this is limited to TN only? Granted if you’re not in TN, I’m not sure why this specific offer makes sense, but looking at the Grizzlies direct deposit offer, I don’t see any TN specific language, and since they bought Bank of NC last year, I don’t see why I wouldn’t be able to open this account in NC.
