USAA

USAA uses Tele check not chex systems. They are very nice and have the best customer service. Just call and explain that you need a membership number to open a checking account and it is as simple as that.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON

 

URL: www.franklintempleton.com

 

Important Information:

 

1.800.632.2301 phone

-will not check chexsystems, telecheck or do a credit check for a money market account ONLY. They will run chexsystems for a checking account. This acount should not be used as a business account.

This is a money market account. NOT a checking acount. It does have checking account features (ie checks, debit card). But checks can ONLY be written for 500.00 and above. You can use the debit card feature for any amount you wish though.

 

Your initial opening deposit can be handled in two ways. You can send a personal OR Cashiers check (NO MONEY ORDERS) in the amount of 1000.00 along with your application. OR you can choose to have 50.00 debited from a banking account. The second option is obviousy optimum, but may pose a problem for those without access to a checking account currently.

 

Special Notes:

 

The questions on the application are a little confusing to someone who has never opened an investment account. Heres what you need to do.

 

Pull the Money Market Funds Application online, Print it out.

 

First. Fill out the account holder information. Individual or Joint applicant.

 

Section 1: Trust/Corporation etc.. Dont fill this out, UNLESS you are applying for this as a corporation or granted trust. (most wont be doing this)

 

Section2: Dividend Distribution... Most people chose to reinvest. Simply means where do you want the interest/dividends that you earn on your money sent at the end of the month/year. Reinvesting will put them back into your account.

 

Section3: Fund Selections. Choose Franklin Money Fund 0111. Currently provides the best rate of return on your money.

 

Section 4a:DONT check anything, Unless you DONT want to access your account via telephone.

 

Section 4b: If you chose this option , you can open your account with 50.00. Otherwise you have an opening deposit of 1000.00. Chosing this option requires you to deposit atleast 50.00 a year into your account automatically (via direct deposit OR checking account). You have to set up a bank draft later in section 4e.

 

Section 4c: Ignore this for now. If your account reached 5000.00 you will have an option to have some of the money withdrawn to avoid taxes.

 

Section 4d: Alternative Payee. Fill this out if you want your dividends to go to someone other than yourself.

 

Section 4e: If you cant link a current checking account to this money market account, you will HAVE TO SEND 1000.00 to open the account . Cashiers (bank check) or personal check is the ONLY method of payment they accept. Thanks to John Ashcrofts god D***ed Patriot Act.

 

 

AND, forgot to mention. You can make depoits into this account at any Bank of America Branch in California Only (but NOT an opening deposit).

 

Section 5: if you want to have checks (obviosuly so) check the appropriate option. REMEMBER, Checks can ONLY be written for 500.00 and above.

 

 

Section 6: self explanitory

 

Section 7: self explanitory.

URL: http://www.capitalone.com/investments/mm/i...WW_12514_XXX_...

 

Important Information:

 

 

-does not use chexsystems, credit check or telecheck

 

For anyone interested in savings (or only 6 withdrawals per month) you can apply for this account online. I called and they do not check credit, chex or telecheck. It is a money market account, you can get ATM (not check) card and you can also get checks. You can open with $100.00. FDIC insured to $100,000.00. Would be great if you have direct deposit, or just good for savings. Just go to capitalone.com and you will see area for savings and then applications.

 

-you can fund this account with a personal check or wire transfer..after you fill out the info, they will tell you instructions to wire

 

 

Q: What is a wire transfer?

 

A: A fast and secure way to fund your account is by sending a wire transfer. Please contact the financial institution that is currently holding your funds and instruct them to send a wire transfer to your new Capital One Savings account. At the end of the application process, we will supply you with the information you will need to make that request.

We require a minimum of a $25.00 account opening deposit (this is not a fee & all is deposited into your account), a clear copy of an unexpired government issued ID (drivers license) and a clear copy of your completed application.

Worked out good...I got an account

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I decided to give TAB Bank a try after reading about them on this site. I faxed an application Monday 11/26 about 3pm. I called them Tues about 11am to see if they received my fax and to my surprise the lady said they just sent a letter to me saying they couldn't verify my identity. I was prepared to hear "sorry we cant help you". To my surprise she put my on hold came back and said I need to ask you some questions. I answered about 5 multiple choice questions only I would know, after the last one she said .."OK we are all set. How would you like to fund your account".

 

 

 

I faxed my app. yesterday. Called today. Did my deposit over the phone and was given my account # and routing # over the phone and I just signed up for online banking my deposit is already in there. They said my card would be sent out tomorrow. This seems like a great bank to deal with!

 

 

 

Yes, was able to open a checking account at TAB bank..I live in Jacksonville, Florida..I am still looking for another one for a back up..I appreciate your help and dedication to helping people like myself. Thank you Mary...

Thank you for your interest in Peoples Cash Solutions!!

 

We may or may not use one or all the ones you listed, BUT they have no effect on whether or not you are approved. You could be in one or in all of them & have bad credit & still be approved.

 

We require a minimum of a $25.00 account opening deposit (this is not a fee & all is deposited into your account), a clear copy of an unexpired government issued ID (drivers license) and a clear copy of your completed application. If you are considering applying - I would recommend mailing in ALL at once to the address provided for Peoples Bank.

 

I hope this helps!!

 

Thanks,

USAA uses Tele check not chex systems. They are very nice and have the best customer service.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON

 

URL: www.franklintempleton.com

 

Important Information:

 

1.800.632.2301 phone

-will not check chexsystems, telecheck or do a credit check for a money market account ONLY. They will run chexsystems for a checking account. This acount should not be used as a business account.

 

This is a money market account. NOT a checking acount. It does have checking account features (ie checks, debit card). But checks can ONLY be written for 500.00 and above. You can use the debit card feature for any amount you wish though.

 

Your initial opening deposit can be handled in two ways. You can send a personal OR Cashiers check (NO MONEY ORDERS) in the amount of 1000.00 along with your application. OR you can choose to have 50.00 debited from a banking account. The second option is obviousy optimum, but may pose a problem for those without access to a checking account currently.

 

Special Notes:

 

The questions on the application are a little confusing to someone who has never opened an investment account. Heres what you need to do.

 

Pull the Money Market Funds Application online, Print it out.

 

First. Fill out the account holder information. Individual or Joint applicant.

 

Section 1: Trust/Corporation etc.. Dont fill this out, UNLESS you are applying for this as a corporation or granted trust. (most wont be doing this)

 

Section2: Dividend Distribution... Most people chose to reinvest. Simply means where do you want the interest/dividends that you earn on your money sent at the end of the month/year. Reinvesting will put them back into your account.

 

Section3: Fund Selections. Choose Franklin Money Fund 0111. Currently provides the best rate of return on your money.

 

Section 4a:DONT check anything, Unless you DONT want to access your account via telephone.

 

Section 4b: If you chose this option , you can open your account with 50.00. Otherwise you have an opening deposit of 1000.00. Chosing this option requires you to deposit atleast 50.00 a year into your account automatically (via direct deposit OR checking account). You have to set up a bank draft later in section 4e.

 

Section 4c: Ignore this for now. If your account reached 5000.00 you will have an option to have some of the money withdrawn to avoid taxes.

 

Section 4d: Alternative Payee. Fill this out if you want your dividends to go to someone other than yourself.

 

Section 4e: If you cant link a current checking account to this money market account, you will HAVE TO SEND 1000.00 to open the account . Cashiers (bank check) or personal check is the ONLY method of payment they accept. Thanks to John Ashcrofts god D***ed Patriot Act.

 

 

AND, forgot to mention. You can make depoits into this account at any Bank of America Branch in California Only (but NOT an opening deposit).

 

Section 5: if you want to have checks (obviosuly so) check the appropriate option. REMEMBER, Checks can ONLY be written for 500.00 and above.

 

 

Section 6: self explanitory

 

Section 7: self explanitory.

People seem not to understand entirely what shared branching actually means. It is simple. It makes having an account that is not local, the same as if it were local. Generally, would get a membership at a credit union that may be out of state and not local to you. You would then be able to get service on your account(s) at a credit union that you do NOT belong to that is local to you.

 

Even if the shared branches that are local to you are credit unions that use Chexsystems, it doesn't matter. They are simply servicing your account. You can go to the teller line and make deposits, withdrawals and payments all on your accounts. The same as if you opened your account there. If the shared branch has a deposit taking ATM, then you are able to make deposits at the shared branch using their ATM as well.

 

This is definitely a great opportunity for someone on chexsystems that may live in an area where it is hard to find a bank or credit union that doesn't use Chexsystems. Or even a good back up account for those that have found an account already.

Now, they are not part of "shared branching".....although their ATMs are part of the "Alliance One" Network which can be found nationwide, generally at credit unions...this means you can make instantly credited deposits, low or no-fee transactions, etc....so its almost as good as being part of the shared branching......

While I think that this list is important, shouldn't people be more focused on getting out of Chexsystems?

 

There doesn't seem to be much advice on your site about that.

 

It's kinda like this site peddling First Premier cards. They will approve anyone and may be beneficial to some if they can't get anything else but the goal here is always to clean up reports......not to get subprime cards.

Yes Chexsystems removal is also posted on my site. But there is no guarantee you can be removed from Chexsystems. Chexsystems is a CRA even if you pay off the debt you owe, there is no guarantee that they will remove you

Nothing is guaranteed but that doesn't mean people shouldn't try. Don't get me wrong. I like your site but I think it's focused on the wrong thing.

 

You seem to be misleading people to think they are stuck with Chex and these banks are their only choices. MANY people have had success getting out of Chex. I got out and it wasn't that difficult.

 

The old chexvictims site was focused on chex removal and that is what people show be striving for.

Edited by aadam101
Posted (edited)

I was the moderator at the old ChexVictims site for more than 5 years. I RAN the site. All the information on chexsystems removal and sample letters etc is still available. Unfortunately it turns out the admin on the old board was actually using ChexVictims as a means to obtain info and selling it on other sites. So basically I was being used. Although I helped a tremendous amount of people there, he was able to sell the info I was giving for free to people because he would advertise the other sites and not ChexVictims. I was devistated and I was going to quit completely but I decided not to because the demand of people asking for help was so great.

 

After he closed the forum, I started my own site and I was emailing my list to everyone for free. The demand is overwhelming. Then I had someone contact me and tell me that they had just paid 75.00 for a list that had my emails on it. I realized these places are doing the same thing and selling my information. I am charging just 3.25 ( after a fee is taken out I will end up with less than 3.00 ) but I am in hopes to actually use the money to advertise my list for 3.25 and knock out these rip off places.

 

The systems I have set up now will allow a person only to get the state in which they pay for ..so there is now no way they can get my ENTIRE LIST. Regardless I refuse to allow people to make money off the information that I have been providing for free for years now out of the kindness of my heart and wanting to help. I will quit before I do that anymore.

The only thing that crossed my mind when I read this post was... "Wow, that's great.. people with bank problems (just like people with credit problems) can get help with their needs. I never thought of the information as "misleading" but more like the info on this site.... this is what you need to do to potentially help your situation. I suppose differences is what makes the world go 'round, so to each- their own opinion.

Posted

Wow, mca, I had no idea you had that kind of issue-fest going on over there.

 

I'd like to thank you for having had the site as a resource... without your info, I wouldn't have known where to turn beyond what I'd had to do back at that time (check cashing, prepaid debit cards, money orders, general improvising). I didn't know all the straight scoop about CS before coming upon your site, either. Now I have 2 bank accounts and a CU relationship too. Even more than that, had I not seen the linkie to this here CB site, I wouldn't have what I have now in credit again (after a long drought).

 

Your work didn't go unappreciated--thanx again mca. You were a huge help to me.

I appreciate the list but I just wanted to say that not *anyone* can get electric orange checking. I just applied ( I have my savings there) and they said since they would not extend a line of credit for overdrafts that I could not have an account. So it seems you need decent credit to bank there

Posted
Clevermonkey what state are you in and do you need a checking account. yes ING DIrect will not open a Account if you do not qualify for thier overdraft program. There are better alternatives.

 

 

I use USAA now but after some recent fraud on my account and their ensuing incompetence that cost me not only hours on the phone but money as well I am looking for another alternative. I no longer trust them. I am in IL and will probably just go with my credit union where I have a savings account
