Our Verdict

They have offered a $200 checking & $500 savings bonus in the past. The upside to this savings bonus is that it only requires a $1 deposit, should be worth doing for a lot of readers and we will add this to our list of the best saving bonuses. Account also earns 1% APY when you deposit $1,000+ per month.

  • Looks like I received the bonus after receiving an email about it. Didn't think this was going to pay out, but I did notice a $5 checking fee and a $2 statement fee, which I am going to contact support about on the 31st and 1st.

  • 6/24/22: Application required me to scan/send driver license for confirmation. E-mailed license and Sky-High saving account and Primary saving account were opened. I funded the Sky-High saving account and Primary saving account with $1 and $5, respectively. eStatement set up to waive the $2 fee.

    12/22/22: Sent a secure message to customer service asking when the bonus will arrive. It has been 180 days since I opened and funded the account.

    12/23/22: $100 bonus posted in primary savings account.

    • @guest_1514588 P1 and P2 received the $100 bonus yesterday. No sign of any referral bonuses.

      Just received the targeted email for the same thing. 36 month language stinks. @will

  • I tried to open this account on 6/22, but I never heard back about my application. I recently received a statement in the mail for 6/22-6/30 showing my attempted total of $500 in credit card funding, which was reversed the next day. I called, and the application was denied from the start.

  • I applied 6/24, received an email 6/25 from them acknowledging that I signed documents with docu sign and, that's it. No further communication.

    • I sent an email response to their email acknowledging the docs: I got a response! Told me to upload a DL pic and utility bill.
      I responded with "Where?"
      No response yet. I give up, doubt they would pay out since the account was applied for but not "open" before the cut-off.

    • Got a statement in the mail today, called them and they said it my account was closed due to me never uploading any documents/ID scan. The problem is, they never sent me any communication asking for an ID, only the Docusign confirmation and a text saying to look out for an email which never came. Seems like I missed out on $100 but also on dealing with an incompetent credit union, so I'll call it even.

    • No mention of a $100 bonus or promo code now... plus, the expiration date has been exceeded = dead.

  • Account was opened and then closed the following day. Funding was returned, would not recommend to anyone who has multiple Chex inquiries.

    • At least they didn't keep you in the dark for two weeks and then return your funding at their leisure. (Teachers FCU)

  • my account was declined because too many Inquiries which is probably due to my ChexSystems score
