Avoiding Fees

Monthly Fees

The free checking account has no monthly fees to worry about,as long as you opt-in to e-statements after setting up online banking.

Early Account Termination Fee

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

Our Verdict

These tickets can be very profitable for resale. Not as good as the previous $100 + two free tickets. Looks like this is nationwide at the moment, but I wouldn’t be surprised if location specific language is added soon.

  • 5 dollar fee for inactive accounts beginning 5/1/24. This was noted on my April statement

  • Any reports on a 1099 coming in the mail?

    I can't find one in online banking. I didn't get any interest, only the tickets. If no 1099, how exactly are people reporting their tickets?

  • 9/18 - Applied
    9/19 - Account approved, opened with $4000 CC funding
    Moved some money out of account to other primary accounts (that have higher interest rates)
    10/5 - $510 Deposit from North Lane. Processed as "Paycheck"
    10/31 - $2 Paper statement fee (forgot to set to estatements)
    11/29 - $50 bonus deposited

    A word of warning to those that want to shift money out of the account (like I did) to basically pay off the CC funding with the money itself, Unify seems to be more picky about transfers. They have put each transfer under review, and called me each time. The transfers still processed and I still got the bonus, so apparently I didn't say anything too alarming, but they didn't seem to like my money moving.

  • Another DP that Fidelity CMA works to trigger the bonus.
    10/1 - Account opened
    11/9 - Fidelity push
    12/1 - Bonus posted

  • Access Denied, you are not authorized to access this page after click the link above. Anyone has this issue, how to solve it? Thank you!

  • This now has a monthly fee if you do not use the debit card 8 times, have e-Statements, and login to online banking at least once per month.

    "$20 monthly account fee applies if account requirements are not met each month. Requirements include logging into FREE eBanking at least once a month, conducting eight transactions (point-of-sale or signature-based) using your Debit Card per month, and being signed up for eStatements."

        • all checking accounts come with a free debit card. The "Free checking" Avi is talking about is actually a free account with no fees.

  • 10/3 account open $4,000 funding Chase Ink Unlim from WA. Chex pull, was 3/1 month, 6/2, 6/3.
    10/4 two tickets received via email, decent section, $531 after fees on stubhub IF they sell
    10/10 $500 Discover transfer, no dice
    10/13 CC funding available for transfer
    10/17 applied for a CD for some more of that sweet CC funding, DENIED chex. was 9/1 month, 12/2, 12/3
    10/31 Real $500 DD
    11/1 $50 Bonus

    Will keep around for future CC account funding if chex count drops
