Just FYI about Chase - I opened an account online. I didn't really need it, I already have checking accounts at 3 other banks, but I thought hey why not diversify - anyway, I opened an account online, made a deposit with my debit card, all seemed good, I could view my account online. I received a debit card in the mail, but when I tried to call the number on the sticker on the debit card, I was transferred to the Fraud Department. Apparently a bank I had a problem with years ago showed up on the Early Warning System (EWS). I am sure this is not a revelation, but I Just thought I would share my experience.

Oh yeah, sorry for forgetting the rest. So they told me to contact EWS to get a letter that everything was all cleared up, so they could activate the debit card. In the mean time, they closed the account immediately. I assume they will return the initial deposit to me. So yes, it was easy to open an account, but it was closed quickly...
