Does anyone know of any banks out there that i can open up a checking account with? i live in PA and have 2 things on chexsystems that i am currently paying back to the bank through a plan...i live in PA if that helps

also, is chexsystems 5 years for removal? my one item should be dropping off in august if that's the case, though would that still be if i was still paying it off?


Many times paying on the debt owed to the reporting bank(s) will update the account being reported and it will take 5 years from the date of the last payment made.

What is your zip code there in PA?

Yea WoodForest would be a really good second chance account for you there. It is a good bank and they are very friendly to those reported to chexsystems.

If you are not reported to Telecheck, then I would suggest trying Univest Bank.
