Avoiding Fees

Free Checking Account

This account has no monthly fees, you do need to open it with a minimum of $100 though.

Early Account Termination Fee

There is a fee if closed within 180 days, but I’m unsure what this fee is.

Our Verdict

The fact you need to set up credit card processing kills this deal for me, I’m not sure what the fees on that would be – but I don’t think it’s worth setting all that up (and dealing with any tax complications) unless you actually need it (and it’s the best pricing available). Because of that, we haven’t added it to our list of the best bank account bonuses. Fidelity Bank are also offering a $200 checking $100 savings bonus for personal accounts.
