Avoiding Fees

Monthly Fees

This account has no monthly fees to worry about.

Early Account Termination Fee

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

Our Verdict

Need to know if this is a hard or soft pull to open, but requirements seem easy to meet and no direct deposit to worry about.

    • yup came to provide this. I live in Brevard, so no issue for me. Also, it's adorable that you can get your debit card with the logos of any of the high schools in the county.

        • I didn't get immediately approved either, I'll post when I hear something. I also had a CCU account from 1994 to 2009 or so, and closed it when I paid off my car loan from them. So I'll be the DP about whether there's a restriction on the bonus that way.
