I have had my Chase Free Checking Account for about 3 years now.  I was reluctant to get this account in the beginning because of all the negative stuff I had heard about this bank.After some time, I felt pretty good about having this account.  It offered the services I needed.The problem with all banks is guarding against insufficient funds chagres. Chase is no better at that, but as...

I do prefer bringing with me my credit cards and my ATM card during shopping or when I am out for buying. It is more handy and manageable as compared bringing cash with me of course aside from other benefits it will give me in using it. I opened this BPI Express Teller Savings account two years ago and I am still keeping it. The account provides several other benefits like: access over thousand...

Wife and I maintain a savings account (ATM card) with Bank of the Philippines Island or BPI. It is one of the biggest banks here in the Philippines that really offers plenty of products and services. We got one savings account, ATM only no passbook, and initially paid Php3,000.00 and this will serves as our maintaining balance. If we go lower than this at any given time in a month we will be ch...

After setting up my TD BankNorth account this morning which was so simple it was akin to rolling off a log, I thought about the possibility that my BankNorth account may not play nicely with Paypal.  I like the options it offers though and as I had one of those accounts before, figured that I can always transfer funds to it as additional savings incentives along the way.  To ensure th...

I have opened a Premier checking account with a local branch of Maybank. The service combines a checking account, a passbook, and an ATM card. I think it is pretty good. The opening and maintaining balance though is pretty steep at P20,000 which is roughly $500. That is pretty big in our currency.Anyway, service is pretty good, except that sometimes there are employees who are not very accommod...

THIS IS FOR CANADIANS ONLY (as far as I know)If you are from Canada, you may be familiar with the Supermarket Superstore or Loblaws (different names in Eastern and Western Canada) but are practically the same store.  Under their brand, President's Choice (PC), they have a no fees banking option available.  Sign up is easy with a few forms to fill and then your account is set up.&n...

Paypal is not available in the Philippines and without my Union Bank EON Cyber Account I cannot join Shared Reviews. If I need a Paypal account well I need to have an EON Cyber Account first. That is the only possible way where I can have my much needed Paypal.Applying has never been that hard. I check their site online and look for the procedures. There's this online application form to be...

I always have the impression when dealing with Wells Fargo that their ultimate goal is to nickel and dime me in every way they can.  They interrupt attempts at phone banking with annoying advertisements, and they've even deliberately put a link to an ad in the place where most people would expect to click to get to their online account.  It feels like they're trying to trick m...

With money sitting in a Paypal account gathering dust, I decided that perhaps I should be transferring the US dollar funds to a more secure and manageable account.  A quick call to my own bank here in Canada,  TDCanada Trust, was all it took. I called a 1-866 number and after entering my ATM card number and my pin for it, I pressed "0" and was quickly forwarded to a Customer...

Because of some bad credit history thanks to the Federal Education Department opening a bank account has been one heck of a task for me in the past few years. All banks now days want to run credit checks before allowing you to put your own money into their bank and with a low credit score there just isn't many banks that will give you the time of day.After reading on the internet about Firs...

I have this checking account under Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation or RCBC for 8 years now. It all started with on offer of personal loan to me from the said bank 8 years ago. When I accepted the offer I need to pay it through post dated checks. I do not have one that time so I open this checking account with their bank. At first I am using the account exclusively for that loan. Subsequent...

AccountNow is a checking account card that is issued by MetaBank or Palm Desert National Bank. You may either apply to receive an AccountNow Visa card, Mastercard, or even both. AccountNow is a wonderful alternative to having a standard bank account. I say this both from personal experience and the fact that AccountNow has many benifits available to it's card holders. As an AccountNow card hold...

This is the largest bank in town- and apparently it's gone to their heads. Shortly after I moved here, I opened an account with Fifth Third. It's a pervasive presence in town and I assumed it would be trustworthy. In fairness, it probably is trustworthy, but I've never experienced such a repeated lack of customer service from a financial institution.There were never enough tellers, ...

Everyone needs to do banking at one place or another.  I would highly recommend a credit union and the one we bank at is Lake Michigan Credit Union where we have been a member for over 30 years.We mainly use this for our checking and savings account since some of our checks are direct deposit.  There is a convenient location near our home and my workplace when I need to deposit my pay...

It all started with a loan and now we continue maintaining our regular checking account with RCBC. The bank granted us a loan for business purposes and one of the requirements then was a checking account. We did not have any so they offered to us their product. That was 10 years ago and we decided to continue maintaining it even after finishing the loan for business purposes. RCBC is one of the...

My hubby and I have opened savings account in Mandiri Bank for about five years now. My hubby opened one account because his monthly salary is transferred through this bank. I myself like this bank because the customer service is friendly and warm. Also, interest rates are pretty satisfying so far. We got ATM cards when we opened a savings account. We can choose if we want to personalize the AT...

Midflorida makes starting a new savings and checking account easy. Plus there was practically no fee. I only needed $5 to keep in my savings account to open it and $20 to start the checking account. The $20 is still yours to spend, however the $5 must remain in your savings account at all times. Midflorid has great hours and easy transfers. You can transfer money over the phone or online for fr...

If you have other Capital One accounts, transfers take place instantly and there are no holds on funds.  However, if you don't have other Capital One accounts, t...
