need bank


Your best bet in Ohio right now is still US bank ( see details below ) let me know if any of these help

Most US banks are giving accounts to most people on chexsystems. These are regular accounts ..not 2nd chance checking...as long as you do NOT owe them money and you are not reported on your chexsystems report for any kind of " fraudulent activity " you can get an account here. It is best not to apply online but to go into a branch local to you. There are some branches that are still not not using this policy so it might be a good idea to call a branch local to you and ask about their policy first before going in. Some US branches have signs that actually say chexsystems.. no problem ..yet others will not open accounts at all ...from what we have been told you need to go to a location that is an " in store " location not a regular branch ..the " in store locations only " are the one approving these accounts not regular branches

No, 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......
