Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
This account has no monthly fees to worry about.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so unsure if there is any EATF.
Our Verdict
Seems like a good offer if you live in an eligible area, we just need to know if it’s a hard or soft pull to open.
