That the only way? if you're eligible, i believe you need a credit card with them, you can use their mobile app or a scanner, to take a photo or scan a check to deposit it... their mobile app is awesome... my friend was home on leave and showed me the check deposit thing with his iphone. |

The lack of convenience with deposits is probably the only qualm I have, but it's not a big deal since I kept my Chase account that I hate and only use ot for depositing checks and then transferring most of the money over to the Schwab account. From the ratings I've read and my experience so far compared to my friend's experience with USAA, they are not far behind USAA. Their customer service was great and I actually got to speak to an American. |

Look into ING Direct's Electric Orange account. If you don't write many paper checks, it might be a good option.

One of the credit unions. +1. Something I like about the credit unions around here is their shared banking. No atm fees when using any CU atm, regardless which one you belong too. Also, you can go into any credit union and do your banking. Doesn't have to be the same one your account is at. No problem with online banking with mine. |
