Closing $ense
I’ve been a Chase Bank customer since Washington Mutual was acquired by JP Morgan Chase. Chase has since grown to be the largest bank in America with almost 5,000 branches and a free ATM network of over 16,000 ATMs.
Customers who prefer to do their banking by visiting a brick-and-mortar location to speak to a teller or by ATM will like the convenience as there is likely to be a Chase branch or ATM nearby. I’ve used their banking services from the east coast to the west coast when traveling.
The Total Checking account from Chase is their current most affordable checking account with the lowest daily or average balance requirements to waive the monthly fee.
New customers who open a Total Check account between now and 4/19/2023 can sweeten the deal with the $200 bonus. Who doesn’t like free money with minimal hoops to jump through? This is one of the highest offers I’ve seen for this particular product.
The drawback with the Total Checking account is like many other local banks; Chase does not pay interest on account balances.
