Avoiding Fees

Monthly Fees

They offer a free checking account with no monthly fees to worry about.

Early Account Termination Fee

I wasn’t able to find the fee schedule so unsure if there is an early account termination fee or not.

Our Verdict

This deal is better than the old $100 offer, though this new $300 offer has a direct deposit requirement. We will add it towards the bottom of the best bank bonuses page.
