Are you looking for a business or a personal account?
Bank of America is one you may want to consider. Apply online only for business or personal. Depending on where you are in NY, there may be others aas well |

Try either wood forest bank or U.S. bank they have second chance checking account. Wood forest you can get a debit card for an annual fee. U.S. bank you can only get restricted atm card that only works at their atms. Make sure you tell them your in Chexsystems and you do not know why.

Have two accounts preferably at a different banks both with debit cards. Have one that is used only for web, mail, fax and phone transactions. Have another checking that used for in person purchases and atms. Do not use it at pay at pump, pay inside. When using a pin cover the entry so people and camera do not see what you put in. Lower your daily authorization limit to $1,000 Check your checking account(s) online at least every two business days. Only write one or two checks that have debit cards attached to the checking account. Find a bank that has instant capture, so you can see preauthorizations online.

ETRADE uses chexsystems and will deny. WoodForest is an excellent choice but not for a business account. US bank will open for those with no fraud reported in certain " in store locations" They will open business accounts if no money is owed to a previous bank.
What is your zip code there NYfreewomen? |

My guess is Wells Fargo is cleaning up after acquiring Wachovia and spotted the account with the account owner being in Chex.  |

I am really surprised they closed a "Business Checking account" I can see a Personal but not a Business. I wonder if wal-mart was reported to chexsystems would they close their account? Let say you hire a director who is on Checksystem and then add them to your account, could the bank close your accounts? What if you business had out standing checks and payment do including taxes? That could cause problems. What if your business makes a lot of money? They should at least give them 30 days, so all the funds will clear.

Most of the time if a bank closes an account they will freeze it and close it after 30 days, waiting to make sure everything has cleared. If the bank runs all signers on the account and you have someone on the account that has a chexsystems record, yes they might close it. It really depends on the bank

WOODFOREST BANK
http://woodforest.com Email: Before you can open an account with Woodforest National Bank we do run Telecheck and Chexsystems. If you have any unpaid closures reported by a merchant or another financial institution on either one of these reports you will only qualify for our Second Chance Checking account. You will be able to open an account with us as long as we are able to properly verify your identity and you do not have an unpaid charged off account with Woodforest National Bank. Additional information 2nd Chance account is $7.95 if you have direct deposit $9.95 if you do not. A $9 dollar account opening fee which is take from the account and a $12 dollar one time annual debit card fee is taken out so bring at least $22 (a dollar to open the account, when the promotion is over it's $25 to open per account) However, in 6 months or less, the branch determines if you can move to a regular account or open a savings in addition to the second chance account, regular accounts, you can open immediately! (complimentary overdraft) requiring no credit will kick in after 30 days. It is $500 for direct deposit or $300 without it. ALSO! Phone and Online banking are immediate overnight and they're open 7 days! To see what others are saying about this bank and more be sure to join my forum www.chexvictims.net -you must apply in person for this account |

Hi RJG,
if you are eligible for membership at People's Alliance, it is definitely a good one. They do not use anything and I have been told by many that it is very easy to get an account. Here are the requirements for membership. In Florida, they do also offer membership there but it is much stricter. Are you in New York? People who live, work, worship, or attend school and businesses in the following Aquebogue, Amityville, Bay Shore, Babylon, Bayport, Bellport, Brentwood, Blue Point, Bohemia, Brookhaven, Brooklyn, Calverton, Center Moriches, Centereach, Central Islip, Copiague, Coram, Deer Park, East Moriches, E. Patchogue, Eastport, Farmingville, Hampton Bays, Holtsville, Huntington, Huntington Station, Islip Terrace, Jamesport, Lake Grove, Lake Ronkonkoma, Lindenhurst, Manorville, Mastic, Mastic Beach, Mattituck, Medford, Middle Island, Moriches, N. Babylon, Patchogue, Quogue, Ridge, Riverhead, Rocky Point, Ronkonkoma, Selden, Setauket, Shirley, Shoreham, Sound Beach, Southampton, Stony Brook, W. Babylon, Wyandanch, Yaphank. Carle Place School District. Brooklyn, New York which lies within Community Planning Districts #3, #8, or #9.

TAB is now using chexsystems and they are also closing accounts when they find out that the person on the account is reported to chexsystems. It has been a BIG problem recently so I definitely would NOT apply at TAB.
If you have been reported to chexsystems, there are several options that you have: 1. wait out the 5 years and it will fall off 2. find a non-chexsystems banks 3. attempt to dispute for removal www.chexsystemsdisputes.com |
